Excerpt from The Garden of Eden and the Flood Under the prestige of high scholarship and honest inquiry, a most dangerous body of unbelievers in divine inspiration have assailed the five books of Moses, denying their authorship and invalidating their genuineness as the true history of God's dealing with Israel. Men of weight, in high position, affecting to know theology as well as statecraft, Greek as well as Hebrew, have thrown themselves into this controversy, as once before they doubted the unity and authorship of the Iliad and the Odyssey. By the grinding word-by-word process of Professor Green, of Princeton, N. J., there is absolutely nothing left of these classical doubters but the chaff of a summer's threshing floor. Whatever might seemingly yet remain of them has been sifted out by the Bishop of Ely, until not a single grain of truth can be found in this heap of well-threshed straw.
