The tendency Of higher criticism has
been to put the personality and teach

thus to concentrate faith and love up
on our Lord. Catholic scholars have
also engaged in the work of the bibli-

extremely negative statements of the
results of higher criticism, calculated
to shake the faith of the unlearned.

recognition worth mentioning in Ger

America. The practical Christian who
has no time to follow the course of
historic criticism in detail may be
pleased to know that the higher criti-
cism holds as most authentic and his
torical just those parts of the holy
scripture in which his faith most
dwells and which give him the great

also be sure that If anything in the
Bible is a hindrance to his faith, the
higher criticism has sensible and
sufficient answer for it.
