Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Struggle for Life: Higher Criticism Criticised It will be seen, at once, by the title adopted that the attitude of this treatise towards Higher Criticism is not one of hesitancy or conciliation, but one of avowed and unhesitating hostility. The writer can see no room for the opinion so commonly expressed, that the methods and work of the Higher Critics may ultimately make the Bible clearer, and put the faith on a firmer foundation than ever before. After a prolonged and careful examination of the movement, he is convinced that if Higher Criticism were to succeed in establishing its proclaimed positions, then there would be no Bible, in the long-accepted sense of the word, left to make clear. It would be divided up as to its sources (and a stream can never rise higher than its source) into myths, and fictions, and forgeries, and songs, and sagas, and incredible traditions; and whatever would be left would be full of mistakes and contradictions, of anachronisms and misstatements; the whole a jumble of confusion, deprived of the very idea of Divine authorship or authority. When this new German theory about the Bible began to be first proclaimed amongst us, many years ago now, the writer felt an innate repugnance to it, but he felt also, as many a busy parish clergyman is feeling to-day, that he had not the time, or the ability, or the learning, to deal effectively with this complex subject, with its vast and growing literature.
