Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literature of the Old Testament in Its Historical Development The plan of this volume needs a word of explanation. It was originally intended to publish translations of the most important texts of the Old Testament, grouped topically and edited in such a way as to show both their relation to each other and to that process of development into the work as a Whole by which they found their place in the collection. Considerable progress had been made along these lines when the war interrupted the preparation of the series. After it was over, publishing conditions still presented sufiieient difficulties to compel a modification in the original plan, since that would have involved reprinting large parts of the Old Testament which, with but slight textual yariants, would be already accessible to any reader. It was therefore decided to shorten the quoted text to such an extent that it could be readily printed in the midst of the editorial comment, instead of as a body of documents by itself. Where necessary, the larger sections are summarized, and their significance is thus brought out at the same time. The book is obviously not any longer self-sufiicing; it is a companion to the study of the Old Testament, rather than a repository of its texts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Class-Book of Old Testament History In the encouraging assurance thus given to Adam, in this first Promise of a Saviour, Sacred History finds its definite starting-point, and the Old Testament be comes a true introduction to the New, because it reveals the several steps whereby the Divine Wisdom provided for its fulfilment. From first to last Sacred History is instinct with life and hope it ever points onward to the future; its key-note is ever preparation for the Coming Of him, who was to be the true Seed Of the Woman, in whom the Father counselled before the worlds to gather together in one all things, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth (eph.

Download or read book The Old Testament Student Classic Reprint written by William Rainey Harper and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Testament Student Plainly a reconstruction must rest at first upon a critical restoration of the text both of the Bible itself and of outside sources. It requires also a most exact and historical inter pretation of these sources. Hence the cry of real scholarship in Germany is, Back to the sources! And this Quellen kritik is producing a large mass of technical literature. Hence it is that Prof. Dillmann lectures on d104 Geschichte des Alten Testaments and lays Special emphasis in his Seminar upon emendations Of the Hebrew text and its comparison with the Septuagint; that Prof: Harnack edits a series of d104en und Untersuchungen zur Geschichte der Alt Christlichen Literatur, and that in this series Prof. Weiss has just published a very careful and scholarly discussion of the text of the book of Revelation. Prof. Harnack too in his Seminar for Church History discusses only the origi nal patristic texts. The appearance however at recent dates of so many new introductory works to both the Old and New Testaments, as well as lecture courses on Introductions (which are more frequent here than in America) is an evidence that teachers and scholars are endeavoring to bring into more general notice this effort to construct a new background for the biblical literature. The same reason brings Prof Pflei derer to combine in his lectures the two subjects of New Testament Introduction and New Testament Theology in order to bring the literary development of the New Testa ment literature more forcibly into connection with the progress of Christian doctrine.

This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biblical Theology of the Old Testament Of late Systematic Theology has been somewhat neglected in certain parts of the Protestant world, and indeed has fallen into disrepute, more stress being laid upon the results of Biblical Theology. We are told that in Systematic Theology we have the deduc tions and speculations of men while in Biblical The ology we have the pure teaching of the Word of God. But let us not forget that the man who takes up the Bible now without reference to what has been done towards its elucidation in the past, and without being guided by the development of doctrine, is exactly as foolish as the man who would undertake to take up any branch of science without regard to what has been done before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Testament Literature 2. The alleged impartiality, is really a prejudice against it. 3. The conviction gathered from previous study is not a blind prejudice, but a rational conclusion which is confirmed afresh by critical investigation. Three questions in regard to each book: 1. Authorship; 2. Integrity; 3. Structure and Relations. 1. Authorship. - By whom written? - not an idle question - gives us date, place and reason why written; suggests a measure of a book's trustworthiness and helps to a just comprehension of it. Ascertained: (1) By direct statements: book claims its author, e. g. Pentateuch, Deut. 31:24, - many Psalms, Song of Solomon, some of the prophets - sometimes author in first person, as, "I, Daniel." (2) Incidental evidence, Eccl. 1:1. Joshua, "When we crossed the Jordan." Many of Psalms could only have been written by David. (3) Testimony of other writers (O. T.) Joshua ascribes Pentateuch to Moses, Josh. 1:7. Isaiah referred to, 2 Chron. 26:22 and 32:32. Jer. 26:18, quotes Micah. - Ezra refers to Jeremiah. (4) Our Lord and N. T. (5) Current tradition - this too remote to be of conclusive value. (6) Other indications; internal evidence may agree with reputed origin; compare Egyptian words in Pentateuch, Chaldee passages in Dan. (Exile), Chron. closing with same sentence with which Ezra opens, favors opinion that Ezra is its author. The question of authorship closely bears upon that of canonicity; if written by a man of known inspiration, the book is likely to be canonical, - the converse not true, - if anonymous, it is not, therefore, uncanonical. It is sufficient that the whole book was accepted as true by those who did know its authorship, and that it has the sanction of our Lord. If it could be shown that the book was not written by its reputed author, it would disprove its canonicity; but no book of O. T. sanctioned by our Lord can be so proved. 2. Integrity. - The freedom of a book from mutilations, adulterations or additions. Have we the identical book which the author wrote?

This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian View of the Old Testament During the past half century the attitude of many men toward the Bible has undergone a decided change. The old confidence seems to be gone; a feeling of uncertainty and of unrest has taken its place. This small volume is intended to set forth the Christian View of the Old Testa ment, and to furnish answers to some of the questions men are asking concerning the Sacred Scriptures of the Hebrews, which the early Chris tians included in the canon of Christian sacred writings. The old foundations are not shaken. The Old Testament has stood the tests of the past, which have been severe and often merciless; and there is to-day stronger ground than ever for believing that in its pages men spake from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
