Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 1 Now we may ask, Who were the writers of the primitive history on what principles did they write? And with what aims? The writers of the history were prophetic men, who wrote with the same principles that animated the prophets, and for the same ends as they pursued. All Hebrew history, not only the primitive, but the later, is written from one point of View, the two presuppositions being that God Is in all history of mankind, that He is the one Causality, and His communication of Himself to men the source of all good in them; and that He has from the beginning a purpose to found a perfect kingdom of God upon the earth. God rules the history; it is He that makes history; and this is at once the explanation of it, and the reason for recording it. It is not written for the sake of the mere events, but for the sake of their meaning. His tory is written in order to display the religious philosophy of the history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, 1878, Vol. 8 It is this new and larger conviction which gives form and colour to the thoughts recorded in the Chapter before us. True, he does not once utter that assured hope of a life beyond the grave which found such splendid expression in the closing Verses of Chapter xix. But, as I have just said, that hope was based on the conviction that the present life is not strictly and adequately retributive; and it is t/zz's conviction, still new and strange to his mind, on which his thoughts now work, seeking to define and formulate it. So that if, for the present, he says nothing more of the great hope which had brought light into his darkness, if he seems to sink to a lower level of meditation, lze sinks on{y to 1113 level on w/zz'c/z l'zz's Izapa rests is at work on t/ze basis on w/zz'c/z it stands, making it more solid and strong.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 1: January, 1906 ON the completion of twenty-one years' occupancy of the editorial chair of the expositor, I may be allowed to write a few words of preface to the new series. I do not intend to survey the history of the periodical in detail, nor, tempting as the subject is, Shall I essay any close record of the changes in religious thought during these years. I shall only indicate as brie y as possible the intention with which the expositor has been carried on, and will be conducted in the future. Much might be said of the long and splendid list of contributors. Among them are in cluded many of the most prominent scholars of this country, of the United States, and of the Continent. Among the dead I remember many with special affection and gratitude among them Lightfoot, Westcott, Godet, A. B. Davidson, Milligan and Henry Drummond. Not a few of the most im portant books of the period have been reprinted in whole or in part from the expositor, including works by Professor W. M. Ramsay, Professor George Adam Smith, and many more. The investigations first appearing in the expositor are referred to in every standard commentary and diction ary, while the volumes have their place in theological libraries all over the world.

Chase, Principal of the Cambridge Clergy Training School. The criticism has given rise to a discussion in several numbers of the expositor for the present year. Unfortunately, the Professor and his Critic are still at issue on various points of more or less interest, and especially on the main question, What was the locality of the Churches of Galatia '2 This being a matter of the greatest importance to a right understanding Of the personal history and work of the great Apostle, and to the determination of the order, date, and true interpretation of his earlier epistles, I have been encouraged by the known wishes of several learned friends to try to clear up some Of the points now left in dispute, and to ascertain, as far as I may be able, which of the rival theories is the better entitled to our acceptance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 14 But before proceeding to this, it is necessary to point out that even if the text, as assumed by Dr. Wright, and accepted by Dr. Robertson, is right, there is no certainty whatever about their translation. Robertson quotes Swete for a reference to Enoch, Chapter xx., where we find the expres sion the one, 6 els, Of the holy angels. One naturally turns to see whether this expression implies an angel who has primacy, such as is suggested for Judas in Mark, and we find to our surprise that it is used for a sequence Of angels, one after another, who are incapable collectively of primacy in relation to one another.1 It seems, there fore, tha't both the text and the translation may be wrong. But I will not, for reasons given above, press these points unduly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, 1884, Vol. 7 The line of thought we are about to call in question is worked out mainly in the first and second chapters of his work, which are headed respectively by the words Biogenesis and Degeneration. In the first Mr. Drummond takes up the dictum of Science, that life can only spring from life, and shews that this law holds good in the spiritual no less than in the natural world. Time was when men of science, and even eminent men of science, held the theory of spontaneous generation - held, that life is capable of springing into being of itself, of being educed or evolved from that which is without life. And this theory was very welcome to the fanatical believers in Evolution, who reject the very thought of miracle, of supernatural intervention, of the presence, activity, nay, of the very existence of God. It is to the credit of this scientific school, therefore, that they have themselves conducted the experiments which disproved the theory of spontaneous generation; and that such men as Virchow, Huxley, Tyndall, have been foremost in pro claiming that life cannot be evolved from things without life, that it can only spring from a pre-existent life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 22 There is grace as well as truth in these creative words which has not always been observed. For it was a delicate situation which one less gracious and refined would almost certainly have spoiled. But both by gesture and by judg ment all His own He bore it up into a region in which the natural bonds of home and kindred were transcended but not destroyed, and in which everything was made to rest upon the spiritual principle of the practice of the will of God. Where that Obtained, there was the basis as there were the bonds of a holy family in truth, potentially as vast as the human family itself. So without a hint of censure or even of impatience towards His too obtrusive friends He simply re-affirmed His principle in relation to the family, His own and every other, making it consist of those, the old and young alike, who chose to do the Father's will and who in conse quence were bound to Him by ties as dear as those of mother, sister brother. These were His next of kin in fact and fully, who, m the words of thefourth Evangelist, were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. It was no doubt upon the same occasion that a certain woman catching sight of Jesus' mother lifted up her voice and broke into fervent praises of her blessedness. And once again, without disclaiming aught of the truth extolled, Jesus took and changed it into a form in keeping with his master-thought.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, 1876, Vol. 4 Nor is it divines and expositors alone who have been fascinated by the spell Of this sublime Poem. It is hardly possible to speak Of it to an educated and thoughtful man who does not acknowledge its extraordinary power, its unrivalled excellence; while men of genius, to whom the greatest works Of lite rature in many languages are familiar, are forward to confess that it stands alone, far above the head Of all other and similar performance. Thus, Thomas Carlyle, our greatest living author, who can hardly be suspected of any clerical bias or prepossessions, says of this Book: 1 I call that, apart from all theories about it, one of the grandest things ever written with pen. One feels, indeed, as if it were not Hebrew; such a noble universality, different from noble patriotism or noble sectarianism, reigns in it. A noble Book; all men's Book!

Download or read book The Expositor Vol 9 Classic Reprint written by W. Robertson Nicoll and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 9 In all four Gospels the Saviour is brought into conflict with the official expounders of the Law on the question of giving medical aid on the Sabbath day. Healing is the work of nature or God, whence legislation cannot deal with it; since work, not speech, was forbidden on the Sabbath, a cure which could be effected by a fiat would not constitute a violation of the Law; nor indeed does the Mosaic legislation any more than any other contemplate the occurrence of the miraculous. In three of the Gospels arguments are produced in defence of the performance of medical operations on the Sabbath. These are all Rabbinical or juristic, i.e. based not on general considerations, but on Scripture, and, since Scripture contains nothing that bears directly on the matter, constructed on approved methods of inference. The Rabbinical use of this argument has been recently elucidated by L. Schwarz in the treatise der hermeneutische Syllogismus in der Talmudischen Litteratur, Karlsruhe, 1901, where much which is ordinarily puzzling is made clear.
