Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

64 p.; 21.5 cm. Following the appearance of Smith's article `Bible' in vol. 3 of the 9th edition of Encyclopaedia Britannica on 7 Dec. 1875, in which he wrote: `In this long struggle, which began with the foundation of the theocracy in the work of Moses, and did not issue in conclusive victory until the time of Ezra, the spiritual faith was compelled to show constant powers of new development' (Black & Chrystal, p. 182), in the Edinburgh evening courant for 15 April 1876 the reviewer (A.

Though his Answer (`I have acted on the conviction that loyalty to the Bible, in a Protestant sense, is inseparable from loyalty to the approved laws of scholarly research; for if they are inapplicable to the language of Scripture, God no longer speaks to us in words that we can understand.' (p. 64) was received as `first rate',the case proceeded through Presbytery and General Assembly, resulting in Smith's dismissal from his chair at Aberdeen in 1881. He went on to a distinguished career at Cambridge until his early death in 1894. Good, sidesewn, thumbed and corners worn. Lacks wrapper.…
