Note 069
See the xxxth chapter of the Koran, entitled
the Greeks. Our honest and learned translator, Sale, (p.
330, 331,) fairly states this conjecture, guess, wager, of

intentions, labors to establish this evident prophecy of a
future event, which must, in his opinion, embarrass the
Christian polemics.
