We are glad to note a decidedly increasing interest in regard to the Apocryphal Books as evidenced by increased sales. Man, conscious of his weakness, looks around for guidance. Catholics offer him an infallible Church. Protestants, an infallible Bible. We believe that infallibility belongs only to God and although inspiration may not be certain for these Apocryphal Books, yet for more than three centuries they were accepted by the early Christians as inspired, and therefore should be regarded with interest. The theory of Inspiration has been altered more than once since these books were rejected as uninspired. It was once altered when men began to appeal to the Greek and the Hebrew against the Latin Vulgate. It was altered again when they appealed to lexicons and grammars and the usage of contemporary writers against authoritative interpretation. It was altered again when the science of textual criticism shattered the exclusive claims of the received text. And every alteration, though a shock to the faith Of some, and a trial to all, led to closer study, clearer insight, and a more reverential acceptance of the sacred volume, and all connected therewith.
