Book Description
Excerpt from The Princeton Seminary Bulletin, Vol. 16: November, 1922 I deem it a great privilege, as your friend of many years, to be permitted to address a few Words to you in the form of a charge, remind-ing you of some of your responsibilities and of the expectations of the Board of Dirce tors, the Board of Trustees, your associates of the faculty, your students, and of the Church at large. I am not at all competent to advise you con cerning much of the work which falls to your lot in this highly technical and difficult branch of Theological instruction. Strange to say, this is the second time that I have been appointed to charge a Professor in the Old Testament Department - the accomplished Old Testament Scholar wit-h whom you have been most closely associated, and now yourself. I can only ac count for this double choice on the ground of close friendship. While I make no pretension whatever to knowledge entitling me to speak to you as a mentor, I do have certain convictions in this matter which I desire to voice, and which I beg you to consider.
