TN PROFESSOR CORNILL we have one of the most scholarly professors of Old Testament Theology, and at the same time 
& manof unusual devotion and Christian piety. Among the higher critics he is recognized asa leader, and_ having at- 
tained his results almost in spite of his own preferences, presents them with great delicacy and with unusual sympathy 
for the traditional interpretation. 
“An accomplished and conscientious scholar, and of;a truly religious spirit..".— 7he Outlook. 
“Tt is good that the church should take an interest in the past and especially good when the present is so full of press- 
ing questions and living issues. There have been times when the church has been EprOnS to live too much on the past but 
those were not times when the significance of that part was most clearly understood ; it was not the living past to which 
intelligent homage was paid but a dead past petrified into hard dogmas that were worshiped. In our own time it is from 
the men of ‘science’ even more than from the theologians that the message concerning the meaning of the past has been 
expressed with greatest force. It is possible for us all now to take a large, comprehensive view of great world-movements.”
