Excerpt from The Bible Educator, Vol. 4
My own work as a writer in these volumes has naturally been comparatively subordinate, and the labour of my editorial duties (anxious as it has sometimes been, when the illness of one contributorfi or the urgent engagements of another, threatened the interruption of their work) has been lightened by the' constant assistance of one of whom I may almost speak as a co-editor - my friend, the Rev. T. Teign~ mouth Shore. Looking back upon that work, I venture to express the hope that it has not failed to fulfil the promise and the purpose with which it started. Scholars belonging to the different sections of the great family that names the Name of Christ have here met as on common ground. The writings inwhich we recognise a revelation of the Mind and Will of the Eternal, more distinct and precious than any other, have been dealt with in the spirit of reverential freedom so ably vindicated by Dr. F. W. F arrar in his Essay on Inspiration, and exemplified so admirably in his Life of Christ. The circumstances and accessories of the great divine drama of which the Bible is the chief record have been brought before the reader with a vividness and accuracy which will, it is lioped, make the drama itself more of a living reality than it has been. The wants of the class of students who are also teachers have never been lost sight of, and, if I may judge from the incidental notices that have from time to time appeared in reviews and magazines that represent that class, have been adequately met. I can but express the hope that the completion of the bible educator may lead to a yet wider appreciation of its usefulness, and that it may, for many years to come, take its place among the agencies by which English men and women may be led to unite the thoughts that widen with the years, and the Faith that has been from the beginning.
