Sinopsis

Excerpt from Criticism, True and False: Or the Present State of the Deuteronomy Controversy

Deuteronomy, the whole Bible will be open, without possible ecclesiastical control, to similar treatment. Such is the broad question now to be determined. NO book of the Bible more distinctly professes to be historical than Deuteronomy. It bears by a thousand significant marks the stamp of its intended historic character. If not historical, it is not a mere work of fiction. It is Clearly 21 designed personation, or, to speak plainly, misrepresentation, or even imposition, and in such case inspiration is out of the question, though we give credit to the honesty, but not judgment or breadth of View, of those who would still hold it inspired. For P= 13, omitted D. Which appeared.

Excerpt from Criticism, True and False: Or the Present State of the Deuteronomy Controversy

These articles appeared in the columns of a weekly journal. The author has been requested to republish them, and it is believed that it may be of interest to do so at the present time. There are many who do not adhere to the recent criticism -of Deuteronomy, who think that full liberty should be given in Presbyterian Churches for the discussion of all such questions. I agree with them so far as genuine criticism, limited to its own sphere, is concerned. The case, however, is very different with that sweeping criticism which proceeds to deal with books in a method that, if adopted generally, would subvert all testimony to any literature whatever. If applied to any known author of our own country it would lead to the most strange and absurd conclusions. As applied to sacred literature, it tends to undermine the foundations on which our Christian faith rests. The Book of Deuteronomy does not stand alone. Many other books of the Old and New Testament have been dealt with in the same manner. Large portions of the Prophet Isaiah, the Book of Daniel, the Acts of the Apostles, the Gospels, many of the Epistles, in fact almost all parts of the Bible, have been assigned by one or other of the subjective critics to periods and authors different from those represented. Anyone acquainted with German religious literature and controversy knows how such criticism has undermined the faith of multitudes, to whom nothing is left but blank and dreary scepticism.
