Excerpt from Mountain Pathways: A Study in the Ethics of the Sermon on the Mount, Together With a Revised Translation and Critical Notes
This is a difficult and noble study. It practically amounts to an act of Resuscitation, the raising again of an age that is past and gone. Those who engage in it may well feel themselves blessed, if they are permitted to restore any portion, any element, of the buried world which they are striving to bring to light. But, on the other hand, every discovery is permanent. The Past does not change: it only disappears from our view. When we have learnt to understand what the Gospel was in relation to the age in which it has announced, the picture remains before us always.
