Description
Excerpt from Lex Mosaica: Or the Law of Moses and the Higher Criticism
HE Higher Criticism has had its say in this country as well as on the Continents of Europe and America.
Sporadic efforts have been already made by re sponsible writers to Show that the new position is either untenable or is fraught with greater difficulties than the traditional view. But'' it occurred to the Editor that there was still room for a work which should put to a more systematic test the working of the recent hypotheses.
We appeal to the same documents as our Opponents. We believe that our Opponents are equally with our selves desirous to arrive at truth. The critics have appealed to the development of events as recorded in the Old Testament in verification of their theories: we endeavour to Show that upon these theories the history is unworkable in any one of the centuries between the period of the great lawgiver and the completion of the Canon.
