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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wisdom-Literature of the Old Testament The present volume completes the short Introduction to the Poetical Books of the Bible begun in The Praises of Israel, published last year. The phraseology of the title is not perfectly accurate, for Ecclesiastes is not poetical, and the Song of Songs does not properly belong to Wisdom-Literature. But the books of the Bible treated of in these two small volumes belong to the same group of Scriptures, and are conveniently studied together. If these brief Manuals prove to be of service to readers who have not time or opportunity to use larger and more valuable works, the labour of preparing them will be fully repaid.

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?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Testament Story: Retold for Young People The Bible tells us the story of the Jews and of Jesus Christ. All the Old Testament and almost all the New were written by Jews, and Jesus Christ was born a Jew. The history of the Jews is part of the story of Jesus Christ, because it explains how God prepared the way for Christ; how the teaching of the prophets helped men to understand the words of Christ; and how wealth and poverty, victory and defeat, imperial power and shameful slavery, alike fashioned the Jews to be kinsfolk of the Saviour of the world.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Testament History, Vol. 2: For Schools The title of this little work has been altered, since the first issue of Part I, from Old Testament History for Junior Classes to Old Testament History for Schools. This change has been made in deference to assurances given me, that it may be useful for higher classes, as well as for those originally contemplated. It has already been adopted by some schools, as a book for the upper and middle as well as the lower forms. I have, therefore, not felt it necessary to study so carefully throughout these later 'Parts' simplicity either of subject-matter or of language; and have introduced into those notes, which are designed to be used or omitted at discretion, more of such references to 'classical' or other literature, as may supply helpful and interesting illustrations. According to the plan recommended (sec Part I, p. vii), those who have begun to use the book in 'Junior Classes' will be one or two years older, when they take up Part II and Part III respectively.

This book was released on 2017-12-03 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of the History of the Literature of the Old Testament With Chronological Tables: For the History of the Israelites, and Other Aids to Aids Explanation of the Old Testament On pp. 225-247, there is an addition to the matter previously contained in the Supplements, in the form of a Survey of the constituents of the Sources of all the historical books from Genesis to 2 Kings, together with Ezra and Nehemiah. This was requisite because we could not take it for granted that the readers of our Reprint would use along with it the Translation (see above), in which the various documents are distinguished by marginal letters. The Survey now added is naturally in general agreement with those assumptions of literary criticism on which the Translation and the Outline are based. But the renewed weighing of the critical problems and the employment of contributions to the analysis of the sources made by others since 1894, have led to corrections of all kinds, and in some cases (especially with regard to the Third Book of Moses) to more precise results concerning certain strata of the Sources.
