Excerpt from The Battle of the Standpoints: The Old Testament and the Higher Criticism
Porary Review requested me to reply to articles on Old Testament Criticism by Canons Cheyne and Driver, I instantly availed myself of the precious Opportunity, and stated, in the April number of the Review, the grounds of belief in the Mosaic Authorship of the Five Books of the Law. Thereupon I received many requests, some from prominent members of the Church of England, to republish the article for popular distribution. But, from its assuming prior knowledge of the positions of the Development Critics, my article seemed to me unsuitable for popular use. On an invitation, how ever, to read a paper on the Higher Criticism of the Old Testament before the Evangelical Alliance at its meeting at Manchester, I kept the aim of subse quent publication distinctly in view. The following pages are an expansion of the paper read. And I trust that, by studied avoidance of all technical and scholastic matters, these pages may be fitted to give not unimportant information to all readers interested in the momentous question treated.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book engages with an ongoing debate in Christian theology over the authority of the Old Testament in light of the Higher Criticism, the critical analysis of the Old Testament that challenges its traditional authorship and accuracy. The author contends that the Higher Criticism is a legitimate method of inquiry, essential to understanding the Old Testament. By employing comparison and inference, the Higher Criticism can determine the age, authorship, and reliability of the Old Testament's various books. The Higher Criticism reveals the Old Testament as a complex and composite literary work that emerged and was revised gradually over time. This book emphasizes that despite these challenges to traditional views, the Old Testament remains a vital and authoritative text. It provides a comprehensive examination of the main issues in the Higher Criticism debate, offering a nuanced and balanced perspective that respects both critical inquiry and the enduring value of the Old Testament.
