'I wish to give, in the Hebrew language, a complete picture of the development of the Messianic idea from its beginning to the present time...I think that if we explore and search into this original Hebrew idea, into its formation, its evolution, and its different forms during the course of the three thousand years of its development as they were determined by the unique history of the people Israel--then there will be revealed to us many new horizons in the entire history of Israel, and no less in human history as a whole.' -- Introduction
