Excerpt from With the World's People
In the study of the peoples defined as Semitic we shall find a large measure of interest arising from the fact that they, more than any others, have been the originators of the prevalent forms of religion. This may not perhaps be said, if we consider religions according to the numbers respectively professing them. But it is certainly true, if we estimate religious institutions according to their rank and importance.
