Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Historical Books of the Old Testament
It is objected by Fuerst and others that no discrimination but a chronological one determined the bounds of the O. T. Collection. Improbable that everything else had perished. Compare also Eccl. Xii. 11; II. Mace. Ii. 13, 14; and con sider the age of the older Apocrypha, as compared with the critics' theory in regard to the later canonical books. See I. Mace. Ix. 27, and cf. Iv 46; XIV. 41. Consider the theory of some critics In regard to the in?uence of some of the Apocrypha on the thought and style of the N. T., as compared with some canonical books. General conclusion favorable to the Palestinian and Protestant canon.
