Excerpt from A General Introduction to the Bible, Vol. 1 of 4
Our great Catholic writers on scholastic philosophy and theology were trained to define what they are talking about, and their thought is luminous. But in many other branches of learning writers love to flounder about on limitless topics and forget to mark out, with any degree of precision, the proper limits of the subject under discussion. They seem to have heard that to define is divine, and they have no ambitions. But the skill with which some of them steer clear of any effort at definition is proof conclu sive of a high order of ability, and that they would succeed, if they only made an effort.
