Excerpt from Fundamental Questions Chiefly Relating to the Book of Genesis and the Hebrew Scriptures

These theses are an attempt to solve, in the light of the latest and maturest results of historical, archaeological and scientific investigation, some of those great prob lems which have of late so agitated the Christian public. They are also a humble endeavor in the direction of that new Theology, a Theology historical, inductive, and strictly scientific, which is already taking form, and which is sure, at no distant day, to stand forth in full development to command the acceptance and belief of Christian men. Investigation has not finished its work, the realm of truth is as yet but half explored, and I am quite aware that the views and conclusions here pre sented can be, at the best, but an approximation to the truth. I' offer these theses to the public, confident of but one thing respecting them, which is, that they are an attempt in the right direction; but in the hope that, however short they may have fallen of their aim, they may at least prove helps and stepping-stones to others in a better and more successful search after the truth.
