Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The needs of two classes of readers have been kept in mind. The general public, it is believed, will find the treatment suited to their tastes. By a free use Of footnotes the more technical side of the subject has also been presented for the benefit of readers Wishing to study the question more minutely. NO important phase in the history or in the present status of the problem has intentionally been ignored. The author has made free use of some opinions which he had already expressed in the pages of the Biblical World and the American Journal of Theology, but these materials have been largely recast in becoming an integral part of the present work.
