Excerpt from New Testament in the Twentieth Century, 1914: A Survey of Recent Christological and Historical Criticism of the New Testament The aim of the present volume is to provide a survey of twentieth-century criticism of the New Testament, both in its Christological and historical aspects. For this purpose it is divided into two sections, the one containing an outlook upon the trend of modern Christology, together with two additional chapters on St. Paul and the Mystery Religions, and on The Language of the New Testament, while the second section is entirely devoted to the consideration of the latest New Testament criticism on its literary and historical sides. In the combination of these two features in one and the same volume the writer hopes there may be found ample justification for the issue of a work which may be regarded, in some limited sense, as an Introduction to the New Testament, and for adding another to the many excellent Intro ductions from the hands of scholars of repute which already occupy the field.
