: DR.. Briggs, erstwhile Presbyterian her

on Biblical criticism, which made him

of his nterai Is telfAires. Indeed it is
1he most important American contribu-
aloap .fcom5 thti new school of thinkers to
she5 scFideal literature. In this work
Drr Briggs sums, Up his former studies.
and sets the whole subject in a rational
an coherent order. 1t is by no means
devoted to the so-called higher criticism
exclusively. For the higher criticism deals
with the history, and authorship from
the point of view of the contents of
the books of the Bible, and has resulted
in what Is known as the documentary
theory, which argues for the composite
character of many of the books, notably
those ascribed hitherto to Moses. This
part of the subject is thoroughly treated
here but it is preceded by very adj
equate study of the lower criticism, as
1t is called which relates to the Ian
guages and the manuscripts of the Bible.
Nowhere else can so much and so re-
liable Information be found in so small
a compass, and presented in so clear
manner But before even this depart
ment of the subject Is taken up. the
author gives very clear account OF
the formation of the canon of Scrip
ture. the story of how the particular
books of the Bible came to be selected
for their place, and on what authority
Biblical. theology is treated from the his
torical point of view. The burning ques-
lions of the inerrancy of the Bible is
brought to the front, and the conciu-
sion is reached that it is inerrant only
