Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Gospel History, Vol. 19: A Compendium of Critical Investigations in Support of the Historical Character of the Four Gospels The work, of which a translation in here offered to the public, has passed through two editions in Germany; the first of which appeared in 1841-42, and the second in 1850. The translation is made from the Second Edition, and consequently presents the Author´s more mature views on the subject of which it treats. The object of this work, in the Author´s own words, is "to put into the hands of students and ministers a book in which they can find information respecting the present position and the history of the Criticism of the Gospels, and from which they can supply themselves with the necessary weapons of defence against the attacks upon the Holy Scriptures which are becoming more and more noised abroad." It is only what was to be expected, that, in carrying out this design, the Author should keep in view principally the wants of his own countrymen. Accordingly, the reader will find that Strauss and Baur, and others belonging to their school, have a very prominent place in the following pages. But he will also find, if we mistake not, that the great bulk of the work is of general, and not merely national interest and utility. The work, as stated in the Translator´s Preface, has been to some extent abridged in the translation. It is well that readers should understand that the abridgment has been effected by omission of less important portions, not by systematic condensation of the whole. What is omitted is chiefly matter of local or passing interest; e.g., some of the foot-notes, which would only have encumbered the pages, and elaborate refutations of the wild speculations of the more reckless members of the Negative School. Some of these speculations, like extravagant tales, have too little probability, and are too entirely destitute of sobriety and common sense, to interest the mind. They are dreary and tiresome, and one is impatient to get through them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
