Historical Criticism and the Old Testament (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Historical Criticism and the Old Testament We do not even differ as to the use of terms, for we, too, prefer to avoid the word myth.' Further, the reviewer seems to think that we do not admit the historicity of the Patriarchs, from the time of Abraham. This is quite contrary to our clearly expressed opinion.
