THE LANGUAGE OF ASHDOD

“The corrupt language of Ashdod has fearfully invaded the pulpit and the press of the living world. It is well illustrated by Nehemiah, chapter xii, in his history of the Jewish captivity. One passage will suffice: ‘In those days also, I saw Jews who had married wives of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab. And their children spoke half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jewish language; but, according to the language of each people.’ ‘And,’ says Nehemiah the reformer, ‘I contended with them and reviled them.’

“Babylon the great (the Roman Catholic church in Campbell’s thinking, sw), is the antitype of old Babylon. And most Protestants that have come out of her still speak, and preach, and teach in a mixed and confused dialect. “No one of Elder Campbell's cotemporaries known to me more earnestly contended and labored than he for ‘a pure speech,’ a Scriptural dialect, or the calling of Bible themes by Bible names. ‘The restoration of a pure speech’ was with him a cardinal theme, and a petition in many a prayer.” (Alexander Campbell, Memoirs of Elder Thomas Campbell, Together With a Brief Memoir of Mrs. Jane Campbell, pp , by Alexander Campbell) “Babylon the great (the Roman Catholic church in Campbell’s thinking, sw), is the antitype of old Babylon.

“As the reforms of Ezra and Nehemiah required the complete severance of foreign affiliations, marriages, and even in speech the abandonment of the language of Ashdod, so today nothing short of the complete separation of the church from denominationalism can fulfill the demands of the gospel.” (Foy E. Wallace, Jr., “Retrospective and Prospective," Gospel Advocate, 12/31) “As the reforms of Ezra and Nehemiah required the complete severance of foreign affiliations, marriages, and even in speech the abandonment of the language of Ashdod, so today nothing short of the complete separation of the church from denominationalism can fulfill the demands of the gospel.” (Foy E.
