Excerpt from Creation of the Bible

That creation which speaks for itself in the lowest forms of organic life in due time manifests the wisdom of the Creator in the high department of morals and spiritual development. Religion falls into line as the last of a series of creations. If the time has already arrived when thinkers abandon the long-accepted dogma of creation by fiat, adopting in place of it the philosophy of creation by development, it will not be long before it will be seen that religion is also developed, and that revelation grows. The latter begins in the narrow, the confused, and the primitive; it advances in proportion to the moral, intellectual, and spiritual advancement of men.

"Like every other product of man's spiritual activity," says Professor Abraham Kuenen, "the Israelitish religion has its defects, its one-sidedness, the faults of its virtues." Nothing is so important to us as Israels religion, and that other and better religion which has grown, and is still growing out of it.
