Book Description
Excerpt from Fire From Strange Altars The Bible grew up in the midst of such sur roundings and under such in uences as the histories of these nations suggest. The Israel itish religion was a growth, and was not presented once for all in its completed. Form, lifted up out of all connections with other faiths. That many of its forms were borrowed and adapted, can admit of no question. Can we prove a transmission of spiritual ideas? Was it a mere natural growth, or was there a divine element with which we must reckon when we study the subject?
