Excerpt from Michael Servetus Ance from_ his foes. The twenty-second, which contains the passage 'they pierced my hands and my feet, ' he ascribed to David's flight through the wilderness, where he suffered from this pain owing to the rocks and precipices in his path. Once more he applied the celebrated section of Isaiah vii. To Hezekiah. Such liberty in interpreta tion, which has quite a modern flavour, was extremely distasteful to the con temporary reformers, who would have either their own meaning of the words of the Bible or none. By it is clearly shown that Servetus brought independent thought and unfettered judgment to bear upon the Old Testament Scriptures. He would not suffer himself to be overmastered by the mighty influence of Augustine of Hippo. Some of his principles of investigation and some of his actual conclusions have long been widely though not universally ac cepted. But his freedom and its results only added fuel to the fire of his adversaries, which consumed him at the last.
