Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 5 This is a superficially attractive and a deeply disappointing book. It has such gift of phrase that one thinks it might easily have been a work of art, but it is not. And it has such flashes of insight that one looks to it for fresh and real teaching, but gets nothing of the sort. Let us linger for a moment with the style, meaning thereby the expression of thought, and not such slips as that by which in the first sentence of chapter viii. a verb is left without a nominative. There is an unpleasant flavour of Renan, in his most sugary mood, in the expression which tells us about Jesus "in a moment of fine inspiration" (p. 117). Of course, if this expresses Dr. Watson´s settled opinion, it is not with the style that we must quarrel.
