Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Observations on the Attempted Application of Pantheistic Principles to the Theory and Historic Criticism of the Gospel: Being the Christian Advocate´s Publications for the Years 1840-1844 The present volume contains a Second Edition of the five Essays which the lamented author published separately in successive years, from 1840 to 1844, while he held the office of Christian Advocate in the University of Cambridge. The task which Dr Mill undertook, as Christian Advocate, was to refute the Mythical Interpretation of the Evangelic History; and the plan of the work, as sketched by himself, comprised a First Part, discussing the application of Pantheistic Principles to the theory of the Gospel, and a Second Part, considering their application to the actual Historical Records of Christianity. This undertaking was nearly, but not wholly, accomplished. The First Part appeared in a complete form as the Christian Advocate´s publication for the year 1840. The Second Part was intended to contain three chapters: I. On the Birth of St John the Baptist; II. On the Descent and Parentage of our Lord; and III. On the details of our Lord´s Birth and Infancy, as recorded by St Matthew and St Luke. Of this last chapter the concluding section alone is wanting. It would have contained a vindication of the Second Chapter of St Luke´s Gospel against Mythical Interpreters, and a proof of its consistency with St Matthew´s narrative; but this final portion of the whole work was never written.
