Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Old Testament Literature 2. The alleged impartiality, is really a prejudice against it. 3. The conviction gathered from previous study is not a blind prejudice, but a rational conclusion which is confirmed afresh by critical investigation. Three questions in regard to each book: 1. Authorship; 2. Integrity; 3. Structure and Relations. 1. Authorship. - By whom written? - not an idle question - gives us date, place and reason why written; suggests a measure of a book´s trustworthiness and helps to a just comprehension of it. Ascertained: (1) By direct statements: book claims its author, e. g. Pentateuch, Deut. 31:24, - many Psalms, Song of Solomon, some of the prophets - sometimes author in first person, as, "I, Daniel." (2) Incidental evidence, Eccl. 1:1. Joshua, "When we crossed the Jordan." Many of Psalms could only have been written by David. (3) Testimony of other writers (O. T.) Joshua ascribes Pentateuch to Moses, Josh. 1:7. Isaiah referred to, 2 Chron. 26:22 and 32:32. Jer. 26:18, quotes Micah. - Ezra refers to Jeremiah. (4) Our Lord and N. T. (5) Current tradition - this too remote to be of conclusive value. (6) Other indications; internal evidence may agree with reputed origin; compare Egyptian words in Pentateuch, Chaldee passages in Dan. (Exile), Chron. closing with same sentence with which Ezra opens, favors opinion that Ezra is its author. The question of authorship closely bears upon that of canonicity; if written by a man of known inspiration, the book is likely to be canonical, - the converse not true, - if anonymous, it is not, therefore, uncanonical. It is sufficient that the whole book was accepted as true by those who did know its authorship, and that it has the sanction of our Lord. If it could be shown that the book was not written by its reputed author, it would disprove its canonicity; but no book of O. T. sanctioned by our Lord can be so proved. 2. Integrity. - The freedom of a book from mutilations, adulterations or additions. Have we the identical book which the author wrote?
