Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, 1882, Vol. 4 Indeed, for many years after the death of Christ, the primitive Church felt no need of Christian Scriptures. They heard the Gospel from the lips of Evangelists; and if they wanted Scriptures, had they not the Law and the Prophets, all of whom bore witness to Christ? And these Scriptures of the Old Testament were the Scriptures which the Apostles constantly quoted, -these and no other. Whether it be Peter who speaks, or Paul, you find him for ever basing himself on the Hebrew Scriptures - citing Moses, or David, Isaiah, Joel, or Jeremiah. Whether they speak to Jews or to Gentiles, the Apostles have no other Scriptures but these; but these are for ever in their hearts and on their lips.

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! It is our oldest statement Of the never-ending Problem. 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, Vol. 3 For the word fulfilment, then, we might substitute, as we mean rather that, the realization of prophecy. Thus, for instance, when in the first Gospel we have over and over again, as was natural in a Gospel written for Jewish readers, the expression that it might be fulfilled which was spoken, we may very well paraphrase that for ourselves that there might be a realization of that which was spoken. This will help us a little in solving the difficulty which troubles some minds when St. Matthew or St. Paul adopts Rabbinic modes of explanation of the older Scriptures. The writer, without discussing the legitimacy of the mode of interpretation, is appealing to his hearers on their own grounds. Here, he says, you can see a realization of what your own teachers have practically taught you to expect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 4 Sanctify them, He says, in the truth thy word is truth. Oh their behalf I sanctify myself, in order that they too may be sanctified in truth. Their Lord has sent them forth into the world, even as He had Himself been sent forth for this mission they must be sanctified to this they were designated by their title of apostles. By way of prelude and pre liminary trial He had already sent them out (see especially Matt. Let this sanctification be realized in Christ's present servants and take effect, it is possible then to fore see those who will believe through their word (v. For whom He will ask that they also may be grafted into the Divine fellowship of which these His brethren are par takers. Let this process of sanctification continue, extend ing from the Head to the multiplying members, and the filial union of men with Christ in God will embrace a wider and yet wider circle, until the day appears when, as J esas assures Himself before the Father, the world, that now proclaims Him a blasphemer, shall believe that thou didst send me (o. When the authority given to Him over all flesh shall be made good and Jesus shall be Lord of the full heritage which is His right amongst men It is evident therefore that our blessed Lord looked to the sanctification of Christian men, under the action of the Holy Spirit (xv. 26 as the means of the world's conversion to faith in Him. Here He discovered the aggressive, assimilative principle of His religion, that which should give to Christianity its positive character in this lies its working energy, its propulsive force.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 12 I wish to emphasise this point strongly, as it is one Of' supreme importance. What afterwards emerged as Rabbini cal Judaism, and gathered and concentrated into itself the forces of Jewry, was only one among other elements in the Judaism of the first century a.d. This wider and earlier J udaism - which Mr. J. H. A. Hart has aptly termed Catho lick Judaism - is, perhaps, well represented in the writings of Philo. This earlier Judaism had not yet banned the Greek language, nor the allegorical method of interpreting Scripture. It tolerated Greek translations of the Bible and a more or less Greek liturgy in the colonies of the Dis persion. It embraced within itself a great central body Of moderate conservatives, together with an extreme right and an extreme left wing. 'nor must it be forgotten that the Christian movement itself was during the first stage Of its career within the Jewish body - it was regarded as a Jewish sect - while in the second stage of its career it entered into the fruits Of the great Jewish missionary propa ganda Of the Dispersion.

His anxiety to get back to it was not simply due to the feel ing that he must go on with the Macedonian mission, if at all possible, but to his deep affection for the local community.

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, 1904, Vol. 9 And now, just because we desire, in the spirit of this prayer, to strengthen in ourselves and others a truly spiritual faith, and with a View to this, to get to the heart of the older Bible, it is our duty to listen to voices which call us back for a time to preliminary tasks as yet imperfectly accomplished. By all means let us, each and all, make what contributions we can to the higher exegesis, but let no one think it superfluous to scrutinize somewhat closely the text on which we still for the most part base our critical work. To the comparative soundness of parts it is hardly safe to speak more definitely - of the received text, I hear my testimony no one who has passed through the school of the great period now closed can do otherwise. And yet it is only too possible that some, or even many, parts may have been only half understood owing to a super ficiality and anarrowness in our use of critical method. The mere suspicion of this ought to make us nobly discon tented, and if it can be proved that there is more than a mere suspicion of it, we ought not to rest till we have begun the hard work of a re-examination of the texts. In the bracing air of a new century We ought not to feel any task beyond our powers, knowing that God, who allots to each century its task, can so intensify our will that we shall be able to do better than what has hitherto been deemed our best.

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 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.

I shall begin by tracing the life of St. Peter after the Resurrection, as recorded by St. Luke.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 6 On the perishableness of earthly riches the agreement is not quite so close; still there is much more similarity between James' Go to now, ye rich, weep and bowl for your miseries which are coming upon you: your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten; your silver and your gold are rusted, and their rust shall be for a testimony against you, and shall eat your flesh as fire: ye have laid up your treasure in the last days - there is, I say, much more similarity between this and Matthew's Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, than there is between either of these and the passage from Enoch xcvn. 8-10 referred to by Spittaz' Woe to you who acquire silver and gold in unrighteousness, yet say, We have increased in riches; we have possessions, and we have acquired everything we desire. And now let us do that which we purpose; for we have gathered silver, and our granaries are full, and plentiful as water are the husbandmen in our houses. And like water your lies will flow away; for riches will not abide with you, but will ascend suddenly from you for ye have acquired it all in unrighteousness, and ye will be given over to a great condemnation. It is, I think, unnecessary to go further. In almost every instance in which Spitta attempts to explain away parallels between our Epistle and the Gospels, which have been pointed out by commentators, his efforts seem to me to be scarcely less abortive than in the cases I have-ex amined. The authenticity of the Epistle remains in my14 st. John's paradox concerning the dead. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
