Excerpt from The Old Documents and the New Bible: An Easy Lesson for the People in Biblical Criticism; The Old Testament

In our grandfather"s days, in the simple loving reverence with which the Bible was regarded it almost seemed to men as if, clasped and covered complete, it had dropped down from Heaven like the image of the goddess Diana. It was much too sacred a thing to be the subject of critical inquiry; to admit the possibility of mistakes in its text would have been little short of heresy; while as for making an investigation into the composition and genuineness of its books - why, a man would as soon have thought of "botanising upon his mother"s grave!"

But "old times have changed." In this age of criticism nothing is too sacred to be questioned and investigated, and the present generation is accustomed to see the most vital questions connected with the Bible discussed with the utmost freedom.

Nor is the discussion confined, as in former days, to the circle of scholars and theologians.
