"Tarry thou till I come; or, Salathiel, the wandering Jew" by George Croly is a historical romance written in the early 19th century. The narrative centers around Salathiel, a Jew condemned to wander the earth immortally as a punishment for his role in the crucifixion of Christ, reflecting on themes of guilt, redemption, and faith. The story explores profound existential questions about life, suffering, and the human condition against a backdrop of significant historical events. The beginning of this literary work introduces Salathiel at a moment of intense despair following his conviction to eternal life. As he grapples with the weight of his actions—calling for Jesus' crucifixion—he experiences a painful awakening, realizing the consequences of his fanaticism. The narrative vividly captures his turmoil, depicting his flight from Jerusalem, where the bustling crowds contrast sharply with his sense of solitude and impending doom. Overall, the opening sets a dramatic tone that raises questions about morality, the burden of immortality, and the search for redemption that will unfold throughout the story.
