Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Inspiration of Scripture, Vol. 2: Its Limits and Effects
That such supernatural communication and direction were really concerned in the origin of Scripture, and form its distinctive characteristics: this is assumed as granted; not, indeed, as being necessarily self-evident, or incapable of dispute, but simply as belonging to another and earlier stage of inquiry than that here intended to be followed out. The object of the present work is not to discuss the fact of inspiration, still less the general Divine authority of Scripture, but (these being supposed to be admitted) to investigate the further and independent question of the practical results arising from such inspiration. In other words, to inquire how far, and in what respects, the Bible, thus written under supernatural direction, difere from what we might reason ably suppose it would have been if written without such supernatural direction.
