Excerpt from The Jewish Quarterly Review, Vol. 3: 1912-1913 The western worl - the world of modern civilization - has always felt and evinced a transcendent interest in the polity of the anciei. Hebrews. The books in which it is recorded were once universally accepted as literally inspired, and although the modern course of thought has tended to raise important dissents from this view, it is still widely accepted, and even those who reject it have contributed some of the most valuable aids to the under standing of the biblical literature.
