Excerpt from The Bible: An Outgrowth of Theocratic Life HE point of view from which the Scriptures have hitherto been approached is that of a divine revelation. This idea has dominated their treatment alike at the hand of friends and of foes. As such they have been admired and praised, as such they have been criticised and condemned. This has been the case from the third or fourth century before Christ down to our own day, with almost the sole exception of writers who have reduced them to the level of ordinary human literature. The history of the doctrine of Scripture is mainly the story of the efforts to determine the sense in which, and the degree to which, they are a divine revelation, and to account for various phenomena which seem incompatible with the supposition.
