Excerpt from Bishop Colenso and the Pentateuch, or the Bible in the Gospels: A Vindication of the Historical Character of the Old Testament The Author of this hook does not profess to go into the general question of the Evidences of the inspiration and authenticity of Holy Scripture, nor to follow Dr. Colenso in his puerile criticisms upon the Pentateuch. His object is a specific one, namely, to shew that the Four Gospels generally, and our Lord in particular, recognize the whole of the Old Testament, including the Pentateuch, as authentic and historic: that consequently they are historical books: that the events therein narrated are facts: and that therefore the charge of being 'unhistorical' recently made by Bishop Colenso, instead of being true, does, by placing his assertions in direct antagonism with the statements of our Lord Jesus Christ, recoil with fearful force upon himself, and that he himself presents the melancholy spectacle of a bishop of the Church of Christ, denying the truth of the teachings of the Head of that Church, and stultifying himself and his own teaching, by ignoring the only valid ground for the authority he exercises, and the position he fills.
