Excerpt from The Bible and Men of Learning: In a Course of Lectures
The origin of these Lectures on the Harmony of Learning and Revelation may be seen in the following correspondence.
Rev. Dr. Mathews,
Dear Sir, During your administration of the affairs of the University, and when maturing the enlarged system of instruction designed for the Institution, you introduced a Professorship of Sacred Literature. One object of the proposed Professorship was to vindicate the Sacred Scriptures from the objections often supposed to arise from various discoveries in Science and Letters. That part of the design has not yet been carried into effect; but we believe that it has become peculiarly desirable at the present time, to afford increased opportunities of gaining information on these important questions; and as you have now released yourself from some of your former multiplied labors, we would inquire whether you would not undertake to prepare a course of public Lectures on the prominent subjects which such a department of instruction should embrace.
