Excerpt from Discourses at the Inauguration of the Rev. William Henry Green, as Professor of Biblical and Oriental Literature in the Theological Seminary at Princeton, N. J: Delivered at Princeton, September 30, 1851, Before the Directors of the Seminary This last phase of opinion respecting the doctrine of inspiration claims the vigilant notice of the Church, and especially of her theological teachers. Not that it is wholly a new form of human pride and delusion; for claims to an inward light, of equal brightness and safety with the written word, have been made by enthusiasts and mystics in every age.
