The Right Critical Use of the Bible.
"I am convinced that the Bible becomes even more beautiful the more one understands it; that is, the more one gets insight to see that every word, which we take generally and make special application of to our own wants, has had, in connection with certain circumstances, with certain relations of time and place, a particular, directly individual reference of its own."
Goethe: quoted by M. Arnold in "The Great Prophecy of Israel's Restoration."
