were hid beneath the
...Boftness of its fine ex- pressions." For farther satisfaction, he refers him to those of their fathers who had journeyed in that country which had received the imme- diate revelation of Qod, and his heralds the prophets. He ends by exhorting his cool adviser against that Greek wisdom which had always been inimical to any depth of religious Peeling, and which must ever continue incom- [>atible with the foundations of Judaism.
Other poems of Hallevi are dated after the time when he really began his journey^ When at sea, he called to mind, with affection^ all the members of his family — his brothers, sisters, daughters, the synagogue of his country, and the place he had filled in it ; yet still the longing desire to behold the land of the altar and of the ark of God remained uppermost in his mind.
