Excerpt from Old Testament, Canon and Philology: A Syllabus of Prof. Wm; Henry Green's Lectures The first is not all; all writings by inspired men are not canonz'cal - See 1 Kings 4: 82. Songs by Solomon 1005; all lost; he also spake much on Natural History, &c. It does not follow that all his utterances were inspired, nor that every inspired prediction was intended to form part of the canon. So also as to the writings of Nathan, Abija. Much that the prophets Spoke was intended only for the existing generation and has not been kept; was intended only for a particular age or nation.
