Is it our business to enquire into every detail of the messenger's life, or ought we to be satisfied with the message alone? Is it a sign of vulgarity, this desire to learn all we can about his person, his history, his background, and his circumstances? Is it not a fact that such information may enable us to understand the message better? Curiosity and wonder about great men are natural and must be expected.
