Professor Sayce, who began life as a destructive critic, but was converted from the error of his ways by the stubborn facts revealed by archeology, has just published a small book of great value. He sums up his own views of the methods and conclusions of these enemies of God's Word in seven conclusions. They are briefly condensed by the Life of Faith, in this way:— 1. The critics treat the Bible as if it had been written in English, and by English authors. 2. In the case of books in their own tongue, and by known authors; they have failed in every instance to discover and show joint authorship. How, then, in all the world, is it possible for them to dissect an oriental book like the Bible, written in a dead language, a fragment only of which remains. 3. The philological, or language, basis of criticism has again and again been shown by monumental remains to be untrustworthy. The existence of histories, literature, and historic personages of Egypt, Babylonia, and Greece, all categorically denied by the critics as ever having had an existence, has now been established by the monuments. 4. The critics hold we must come to the age of Solomon before the state of literature permitted of the production of the Biblical writings. The monumental facts show that centuries before Moses, writing had reached a stage adequate to all requirements. 5. The two, so-called accounts of the Deluge appear also in the Babylonian tablets. This overthrows the position of the critics. 6. The Law of Moses, which the critics bring down to the time of the exile, shows marked evidences of having been suited to a people who had not attained to a high state of culture and civilization. The book of the Law of Khammurabi, or Amraphel, eight centuries earlier than that of Moses, shows points of refinement and culture in advance of the Mosaic code. 7. The numerous names in Genesis 14 have been found on the monuments, some of them letter for letter.
