""Who Wrote The Bible?"" by Washington Gladden is a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the origins and authorship of the Bible. Gladden, a prominent American Congregationalist minister and social reformer, delves into the historical, cultural, and literary context of the Bible to uncover the identities and motivations of its various authors. He examines the evidence for and against traditional views of authorship, such as the belief that Moses wrote the first five books of the Old Testament, and presents alternative theories based on textual analysis and historical research. Gladden also explores the theological implications of different authorship theories, and considers how understanding the human origins of the Bible can deepen our appreciation of its spiritual significance. Written in a clear and engaging style, ""Who Wrote The Bible?"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and interpretation of the world's most influential book.These last sentences of Canon Farrar give the probable clew to the interpretation of the book. It is a dramatic poem, celebrating the story of a beautiful peasant girl, a native of the northern village of Shunem, who was carried away by Solomon's officers and confined in his harem at Jerusalem. But in the midst of all this splendor her heart is true to the peasant lover whom she has left behind, nor can any blandishments of the king disturb her constancy; her honor remains unstained, and she is carried home at length, heart-whole and happy, by the swain who has come to Jerusalem for her rescue. This is the beautiful story.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
