A propos de cet article

xxxiii, [1], 195 p.; 22 cm. Corr. reprint of 1935 edition, with supplementary bibliography. (Starr, Baptist bibliography R4745) From the Conclusion: `Our study has thus led us to reaffirm the view of what has been above called the critical orthodoxy of the beginning of the present century. I. The book of Daniel is not a work of the sixth century B.C. .For a sixth-century person.could not have made so gross an error as our author madein introducing Darius the Mede between Belshazzar and Cyrus.

The fact that a common error is spread throughout the whole book is an argument for its unity. IV. The religious value ofthe book is not weakened but strengthened.The author whose mind and outlook we have found in our study was not a man who transmitted a puzzle which it should baffle the ingenuity of saint and scholar to solve.He was a man who lived in critical days whena great battle of faith was in progress. He was a man who was bringing a divine word of cheer to men, and performing a living service, a man who rendered the richest service to succeeding generations through the service of his own. When, therefore, we read the book of Daniel no longer as a Chart of the Ages,but asthe work of a man who saw the world in the light of what he had seen of God, and whose interest was essentially and wholly religious, we are free to feel its religious power, and to understand its message. To the heroes of the Maccabean days it gave encouragement and hope. And beyond that it enshrined abiding principles which are as valid in our day as in those.'
