Prophecy, Jewish and Christian: Considered in a Series of Warburton Lectures at Lincoln's Inn (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from Prophecy, Jewish and Christian: Considered in a Series of Warburton Lectures at Lincoln's Inn

Truth of the Old Testament Scriptures, from the Book of Genesis onwards; and the remarkable lectures delivered last year by Professor Kittel of Leipzig to the National School Teachers of Saxony1 exhibit a remarkable reversion towards old views from the theories which were popularised twenty years ago. Those theories, of course, still find their adherents in various degrees, but each year seems to cut the ground from under them. Every year seems to afford new encouragement to those who have all along ventured to retain the conviction, that it would ultimately prove that there is good foundation for the universal and continuous belief of the Jewish and Christian Churches, for about two thousand years, respecting their sacred Scriptures.

Excerpt from Prophecy, Jewish and Christian: Considered in a Series of Warburton Lectures at Lincoln's Inn

These lectures were preached in the Chapel of Lincoln's Inn, on the foundation of Bishop Warburton, in the course of the years 1894 to 1898. Their publication has been delayed, partly by the constant pressure of public duties, and partly because I wished to consider whether the development of the criticism of the Old Testament would materially affect the traditional point of view from which, in the main, Scripture prophecy is here treated. The result has been to give me reason for satisfaction that I have improved upon the Horatian rule of reserving serious writings for at least nine years.
