Publisher's Synopsis
This book, "Christ In all the Scriptures", was published in 1906 and is A.M Hodgkin's third edition now republished by Bierton Particular Baptists and no doubt written to counteract the Higher Criticism of biblical authorship, such as the Graf-Wellhausen hypothesis, of the 19 century now known as the Documentary Hypothesis that involves the J.E.D.P. notion which denies the Christian teaching of the inspiration of the scriptures and authorship of the books of Moses. There seem to be many people who cannot accept the book of Genesis as the first book of Moses and its reliable history. They also wish to deny the creation of the world in 6 days, the worldwide flood of Noah and destruction of the people of Sodom and Gomora for sodomy. It was Jesus who spoke to those disciples on the Emus road saying, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. The term in all the scripture refers to the five books of Moses, Prophets, and psalms. Namely, the scriptures of the old testament for it is written 2 Timothy 3:16-17 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. I present this book to my son Isaac John Clarke, who ought to know better and in the form of reproof as he is one such person and I am sure he is not the only wayward child. So this book "Christ In All the Scripture" is dedicated them all. This is my first response to those higher critics of the scripture, written out of concern for those adopting these erroneous views on this subject as it will lead to a wrong understanding of the person of the Lord Jesus Christ, the way of salvation, a rejection of gospel truth and errors in eschatology and lead them, like many to follow the broad road that leads to destruction.
