Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Influence of the Bible on Civilisation
One of the greatest questions of our day is how modern civilisation and Christianity can go on in harmony. One can approach this question by sev eral ways, but historical investigation has always proved to be the surest. The author has in mind to write in German a full History of the Bible, when time will allow. Meanwhile this brief sketch may prove useful. Readers who look for references will find most of them in an article contributed by the present writer to Dr. J. Hastings's Encyclo paedia of Religion and Ethics, vol. II, on The Bible in the Christian Church.
