Excerpt from The Virgin Birth of Our Lord

Esteem the honor of being asked to write a word of preface to Dr. Briggs's paper on the Virgin Birth. I owe this privilege sim ply to the fact that I begged earnestly for its re publication in order that a copy might be given to every student in the General Seminary. Amidst all the writing on this topic which has appeared of late no presentation seems to me clearer, saner or more cogent than the argument here put forth. The fame of Dr. Briggs as a fearless and open-minded scholar assures us that no objection on the score of Biblical Criticism has been overlooked. Meanwhile, there is a rever ence in his whole treatment of the subject, a rea sonable deference toward the consensus of the Christian consciousness, a sympathetic apprecia tion of time-honored theological definition, which give a grateful sense of fairness and spiritual in tegrity. I am sure that my own feeling of obli gation to the writer will be widely shared throughout the Church at large.
