Personalities of the Old TestamentC. Scribner's Sons, 1939 - 632 pagina's The Old Testament has never been better understood than it is today. The amazing advance in philology, archaeology, and history has shed so much light on the material and political, the social and religious life of Israel, and on the influence of the culture of the centers of civilization upon it that the Old Testamenthas become an entire new book, full of interest, throbbing with life Our critical study and our modern understanding of the Old Testament, far from making it impossible for us to gain its highest, its spiritual values, actually help us immeasurably in this, if only with open-minded sincerity, real sympathy, and active inward participation we combine a true desire to know what the Old Testament has to say to ourselves. |
