New Year s Day, 1906, Cambridge lost one of its principal teachers, and the University and Town one of their most prominent members and citizens, when Frederick Watson passed away. His life since he went up to Cambridge forty years ago had revolved round two centres, the cause of the Church of Christ in parochial work and in the teaching of Theology. By these he sought to promote the glory of God and the increase of learning and virtue with a definiteness that gave a marked consistency to a strenuous and vigorous life. Watson was born in the city of York in 1844, and went to the Cathedral School, St. Peter s College as it is officially designated. His attention was directed principally to Mathematics, and he gained an open Exhibition at St. John s, which was exchanged next year for a Foundation Scholarship. In his undergraduate days he lived the life of a student, making his Tripos and his religious duties the main business for which he came up. His Tripos was that of 1868, in which he was placed twelfth. It was a year productive of notable men, no less than four of our Judges being in that Tripos :M oulton (S enior Wrangler), Buckley, Sutton, and Barnes, besides Kennedy, who was Senior Classic.

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the ways in which the Bible is inspired and probes its meaning and interpretation. Drawing parallels to other literary works, the author compares the Bible to a collection of books rather than a singular entity. The author presents the opinion that the Bible is both the word of God and the word of man, with both truths requiring faith. This book posits that the Bible is not impervious to criticism and that not all critical results should be taken as accurate. Instead, the author believes that both faith and reason have their place in examining the Bible. Their combination can lead to greater enlightenment. The book asserts that humans must take an active role in deciphering the Bible's teachings, using their intellect to interpret its meaning. Despite this, the author maintains that the Bible is a living and breathing text, nourishing humanity throughout history. It serves as a source of inspiration and guidance, transcending its imperfections and continuing to enrich the lives of those who engage with it. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331135821_0
