Excerpt from The Gospel History and Doctrinal Teaching Critically Examined
The grand synagogue which decided upon the canon of Scripture did not assemble until after the subjection of Asia to the Macedonian power. Like the Christian council, its decrees became binding on the faithful, and came to be regarded as a Sinaitic revelation, or, as it is expressed theologically, they became Halacha le Mosche mi-sinai. Eusebius says that it was not allowed among the Jews that everyone should determine who was guided by the Divine Spirit to write the sacred books, but that only a few persons were charged with this duty, who were also divinely inspired, and that they alone determined what books were sacred and prophetic, and rejected those which were not. The only means, therefore, of ascertaining whether a book of the Old Testament is inspired is, that an unknown Jew, who says that he is divinely inspired, shall be able to say that it is so!
