Excerpt from The Inspiration of the Old Testament Inductively Considered: The Seventh Congregational Union Lecture One of my predecessors in this Lectureship, upon whose honoured grave I feel it a pleasure to place another wreath, made it a large part of his life-work to remind us of the unique position of the Bible in the literature of the world. If the supremacy of Holy Scripture engaged the earlier manhood of Henry Rogers, as his justly famous Eclipse of Faith testifies; the supremacy of Holy Scripture equally engrossed his maturest thinking, as is evident from his latest and finest work, The Superhuman Origin of the Bible Inferred from Itself. Very fresh and very cogent at all times was Mr. Rogers's exposition of his favourite theme. As, in his own trenchant and brilliant way, Mr. Rogers concentrated upon his momentous subject his marvellous insight, his exceptional generalization, his easy mastery of detail, his characteristic artistic skill, the old Book once more became new. We saw its catholicity; we understood its popularity; we ceased to wonder at its influence upon human life and thought; we delighted in its prose; we revelled in its poetry. The survival of the Bible was the most natural of things. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
