Excerpt from A Discourse: At a Sunday Evening Service, New Haven, July 20, 1862
There had long been a schism, or separation, among the tribes of Israel; Judah and Benjamin on one side, Ephraim and the nine remaining tribes on the other. Piety and patriotism alike inspired the hope of a time when the disastrous secession, which had for its corner-stone the worship of the golden calf at Bethel, should be no more. Such a hope was warranted, implicitly by Gods ancient covenant with Israel, and explicitly by the prophetic word which I have read. The time would come when Israel should be again one people - when the envy or hatred of Ephraim should depart, and the adversaries of Judah, long emboldened by the secession of the ten tribes, should be cut off - when Ephraim should no more envy Judah, and Judah should not vex Ephraim.
Our country is now in the agony of a war which, in the wickedness of the conspiracy that brought it on, in the falsehood of the pretenses under which it was begun, in the breadth of the area over which it extends, in the resources by which it is sustained, and the energy with which those resources have been developed and employed on both sides, and in the grandeur of the interests which it involves, has rarely been equaled in this world's history.
