Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Primer of the Bible The object of this Primer is to sketch, in the light of recent criticism, the history of the Bible; the composition of the books - as far as possible in chronological order; their relations to one another, and to the history of Israel, of Judaism, and of the Church; and the process by which they were chosen, collected, and set apart as Sacred Scriptures. In order to furnish a clear and intelligible outline of the subject, its treatment has been limited in two important directions. First, alternative theories are only referred to when they are based on the same general principles of criticism as those assumed in the Primer. An attempt to compare, in this little work, the opposing views of radically different schools would have only led to obscurity and confusion. Secondly, facts which must be familiar to anyone who is likely to read this work, are only referred to when some mention of them is necessary to make the treatment of a subject clear, continuous, and complete. My obligations to the various standard works on the subject are far too manifold to be indicated in detail; and the works themselves are, for the most part, too well known to need enumerating. References are occasionally given in notes either to enable the reader to verify a statement, or to give an authority for a view which is not necessarily endorsed.
