Book Description
Excerpt from Philosophy of the Bible Vindicated Two things have long appeared certain to the Author first, that the science of Metaphysics is not so dry, ditfi cult, and obscure as it is generally thought: secondly, that the spread of irreligion is greatly facilitated by an almost general ignorance of the elementary principles of this science. The very mention of metaphysics sends a shudder through the frames of many persons. They look upon it as a something misty and obscure; they fancy that it is a sort of scientific nightmare which broods gloomily over the brain of the anxious student. Others do not dread it to such an extent; still, they consider it an unprofitable study. To them it is a virgin forest, filled with gnarled old trunks that defy alike the axe of the husbandman, and the eating tooth of time. They cannot penetrate its mazy depths, they say: a tangled undergrowth of hard defini tions intervenes between themselves and the knotty trees of Substance, Existence, Creation, and other giant trunks that grow in the vast wood-land of metaphysics. Perhaps they have ventured to peer timidly into its leafy groves; and then started back with a feeling akin to that experienced by children, when they hurry away from a dense wood.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Philosophy of the Bible This book attempts the first scientific and popular presentation of the history of thought in biblical Judaism. The views laid down in this book are based on a minute study of the literatures concerned, biblical, Graeco-Jewish, and talmudic. For the arguments on which these views are based, the student is referred to my previous publications on the subject. Nevertheless the presentation is so arranged that, from the references given, the reader will always be able to verify my statements from the text of the Bible. Notably I have made it a point to give all the references necessary to an independent verification of my statements in cases where I had to treat of subjects as yet not fully discussed in my previous publications. This Preface is written on the tenth anniversary of my first sessions at the Hebrew Union College. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Philosophy of Faith and the Fourth Gospel The passages have. Been purposely chosen as con structive rather than controversial. The atmosphere of passing controversies has been deliberately avoided. The reader may sometimes be puzzled to find himself passing from philosophy to theology. On reflection he will, I think, see that this is only a natural consequence of what was to Dr. Holland at once his philosophy and his theology. To him the world of thought was one; a world without God was not a world; the process by which man passes from the primary human experience to the living faith through Christ in God was continuous; the logic of faith was the logic of history and fact, the logic of human experience - the philosophy, as he said, of the man who has become aware of the meaning and purpose of human life as a valid whole.

Book Description
Excerpt from Philosophy of the Old Testament The Old Testament is one of the great books of the world. Although it was written in ancient times, it has survived the test of the centuries and it is still one of the most influential of all contemporary books. The greatness of the Old Testament is indicated, in part, by the fact that it belongs to the sacred litera ture of at least three of the major religions of the world. Among the Jews, the Mohammedans, and the Christians, it is regarded as holy and inspired. For the adherents of these religious groups it is a book which contains, in some degree, the revelation 'of the Supreme Being and for this reason it is an authoritative source for the determination of specific beliefs and the regulation of human conduct.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Gospel and Philosophy The following lectures, with the exception of the sixth, were preached in Trinity Chapel, during the season of Lent, 1880, and soon afterward printed in The Church Eclectic, appearing in the successive numbers of that magazine from May to October, inclusive. My apology for repeating them is found in the urgent requests of friends, particularly among the Clergy and Students of theology, that I should put them in a form in which they might be more easily accessible than when hidden away in the files of a monthly publication. Having looked them carefully through, revised them, and made some additions, and having finally decided on discarding one and substituting another for it, written with reference to what seems to me the real ground of our differences to-day, I ventured to preach them again before giving them to the printer.

Book Description
Excerpt from Philosophy of the Plan of Salvation: A Book for the Times Convinced himself of the Divine origin of the religion of the Bible, the author commenced a series of letters to convey to his friend the evidence which had satisfied his own mind beyond the possibility of doubt. The corre spondence was, by the pressure cf. Business engagements, interrupted. The investigation was continued, however, when leisure would permit, for a number of years. The results of this investigation are contained in the following chapters. The epistolary form in 'which a portion of the book was first written will account for some repetition, and some varieties in the style, which otherwise might not have been introduced.

Book Description
Excerpt from Christian Thought, Vol. 7: Lectures and Papers on Philosophy, Christian Evidence, Biblical Elucidation We hear much in these days of a conflict between science and the Bible. SO far as I know, there is no conflict between the science of mind and the Bible, or between the science of language and the Bible - or between the science of law and the Bible. Turning to the physical sciences, and setting aside a. Few events, termed miracles, which the Bobk itself, by the use it makes of them, declares to be outside of the sphere of science, I am not aware of any conflict between the Bible and the sciences of chemistry, or astronomy, or physics. The conflict, if it ex ist, appears to be between certain received teachings of the Bible as to the age of the earth and of man, and the origin of species, and the received teachings of biology and geology concerning the same matters. It is worthy of remark that the disagreement is with the most complex and difficult sciences and not with the simplest and most exact, although less was known of the latter in the earlier times than of the former, and we might fairly expect to find in a human composition of those times, more errors in physics than in biology.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Lamb of God: Or the Scriptural Philosophy of the Atonement The following pages are written with an earnest desire to set forth clearly and helpfully the ground of the Christian's hope. The effort is a sincere and humble response to the oft-repeated request of those who have heard this exposition of Bible truth presented by word of mouth. It is not an exhaustive treatise, and it may embrace little that will be new to the well-instructed Christian. No attempt has been made to consider all that is included in the Saviors work for us, His sacrificial death, in its primary significance as our propitiation, being the point chiefly in view. It is hoped, however, that many a seeker after truth will here find light upon some of his difficulties respecting the way of salvation; and even that mature disciples will experience new assurance and new joy as again they "survey the wondrous cross."
