Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Inauguration of the Rev. Joseph J. Lampe, D.D., Ph.D: As Professor of Old Testament Literature and Exegesis My Brother: It is impossible for me to escape the feeling that it is somewhat presumptuous for me to attempt to charge you concerning the duties of your Chair. Nor could I at all venture upon the task, were it not that some one must do it, and by the direction of the Board the duty has been assigned to me. The Chair which you have this evening formally assumed in this Seminary, is a most ancient and honorable one, and has a most distinguished history. So far as we know, the prophet Samuel organized the first Theological Seminary, and surely his Chair therein was that of Hebrew Literature and Exegesis. From that time until now, doubtless with very few and very brief intervals this important Chair has continued to be occupied; for in the instruction given in connection with the Jewish synagogues, and in the later schools of Alexandria and Antioch, in the cloisters of the Middle Ages, and in the schools and seminaries of modern times, the study of ancient Scripture has ever been preserved. You, my brother, are called to deal with the oldest part of Holy Scripture - that which formed our Lord´s Bible, and which was the source whence the Apostles drew their proofs of the divine mission of Christ. It has therefore had, from the very beginning, an abiding and secure place in the history and development of the Christian Church.
