THE NEW —_——> DB. COLENSO's WORK ON THE PENTATEUCH. THE MOSA:C RASORD UNINSPIRED. ——$——— The Pentateuch and Book of Jozshns Crit:- eally Examined by the Right Rey. Johu Wil- Mam Colenso, D. D., Rishop of Natal"—is the fall tide of the book just published in England, ‘which has created a greater excitement among the theologians than even the famous “Essays and Reviews.” Dr. Colenso puts forth a new ° heresy, not only denying the divine inspiration ef the Pentateuch, but roundly ssserting that the statements made in the Mosxic record are torically trae. "ae omens fs not @ priest only, bat a mis. * sionary Lishop. He 1s a good Hebrew echolar, and « man of high intellectual attainments, ‘with a taste for exact reasoning. Some fourteen re ago hg wrote an elem-ntary treaties o1 Sieeure. which has gone through several adi- tions; and he has since published a book otf Arithmetic, which is now widely accepted in eehools as the best of its kind extant. As Bishop of Natal, says the Loudon Examiner, be bas, devoting bimself with the utmost prac- teal zeal to his duty, studied the Zuln tonzua, avd published a Zulu Grammar and Diction- ary, re proceeding.by the ard of the natives to transiate the Scriptures. He has translated into Zulu the w of the New Testament apd several parts of the OW, including the books of Genesis and Exodus, but white cn- upon that werk, under interrogation his mative belpers, he was brought, he | says, face to face with old difficulties that in England micht be felt but tolerated. In announcing the startling conclusions at which be bus arrived, Dr. Colenso dwells upen his carly doubts end shows how the questions of a barbsrian puzzied him. He 1: aE groseed with parechial and other work im Engiand, I did what, prebably, many other clergymen fave done under similar circum. stances—I contented myself with silencing, by Means of the specious explanations, wich eae im most commentaries, the ordinary ob- Y¥. - ae Against the historical character of the early portions of the Oid Testament, and <-t- ed down into a willing acquiesce: in the general truth of the narrative, whatever di: culties might still hany about particular p: of it. In short, the dectrinal end devotional portions of the Rible were what were needed Most in parochial duty. And, if a passage of the Old Feetament formed at any time the sip- ject of a sermon, it was easy to draw from it ctical leessons of daily life, wjthout exam- ing Cagis? into the historical trath of the Barrative. tis true, there were one or two stories, which presented great difficulties, tuo | sarere notto be noticed, and which were Troughtevery now and then before us in the Lessons of the Church, such ¢. 9. as the ac- count of the Creation and the Deluse. But, on the whole, I found so much of Divine Light and Life in these and other parts of the Sacre< Book, so much wherewith to feed my o foul and the souls of others, that 1 was conte to take all this for granted, as being true in th main, however wonderful, and as heing «t Jeast capable, in an extreme case, of some «uf ficient expla on. “Here, however, as I have said, araidst my work in this jand, i haye been bronzht face to face with the very questions which L thea put by. While transiating the story of the Flood I Bave had 2 simple-minded put intellicent na- tive—one with the docility of a child, but the reasoning power of mature age—look up, and ask, ‘fs ali thet true? Do you really believe thaiall this happened thus; that all the bes and birds, and creeping things upon the earch, large andsmall, from hot conatries and cold, came thus by pairs, and entered into the ark with Noah? And did Noah gather food for them all, for the beasts and birds of prey, as wellas the rest!)
