Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Priestly Element in the Old Testament: An Aid to Historical Study; For Use in Advanced Bible Classes This treatment of the Priestly Element in the Old Testament is intended to serve as a guide for students who wish to take up the questions relating to the subject from an historical point of view. The materials for a preliminary study of the various topics are gathered together, and arranged with suggestions as to order and method of procedure. It is thought that the work proposed is within the reach of the more mature pupils in the Sunday school, although the needs of college and theological students have been kept especially in mind. The general results of modern historical criticism have been taken as a basis for the work, since it is only from the point of view of history that these subjects may now be considered intelligently. Each special topic connected with the general subject of the Priestly Element furnishes a beautiful illustration of the growth and development of Israelitish and Jewish thought under the controlling influence of a conception of God which became more and more pure with the advancing centuries. Four methods of treatment have been employed, each being deemed best adapted to the case in hand, viz.: in Chapter I, a systematic statement of the scope of the Priestly Element; in Chapters II-IV, an historical statement covering in barest outline the story of the Priestly Element as a whole, in its progress and development; in Chapters V-XI, a classified and comparative examination (indicated by questions and suggestions based upon the material presented) of the more important special factors which, taken together, constitute the Priestly Element; in Chapters XII-XIX, a critical examination of the literature produced by the Priests, and of its essential significance. The appendix on the vocabulary of worship will be found serviceable to those who wish to enter somewhat carefully into a consideration of the details. In Appendix B there will be found a classified list of the most important books, while in Appendix C the more valuable recent literature (since 1901) has been indicated.
