* Canon Liddon has called attention to the great value of M. Maspero’s 
paper, saying, ‘‘while the invasion of Palestine by Thothmes III. does 
not traverse (it really supports) the Bible history, his list of his conquests 
affords various indirect confirmations of the truth of the Bible narrative. 
And, moreover, it is an important feature of the great fabric of Ancient 
Egyptian history, to which we may look with increasing confidence for the 
means of showing how mistaken are those theories which, for purely or 
mainly subjective reasons, would place the date of the earliest books of 
Holy Scripture so late as to be entirely inconsistent with belief in their 
general trustworthiness, to say nothing of higher claims.”
