“This work emanates from the Dutch school of theologians. Nowhere in Europe,” said the lamented J. J. Tayler, “has theological science assumed a bolder or more decisive tone [than in Holland]; though always within the limits of profound reverence, and an unenfeebled attachment to the divine essence of the gospel.... We know of no work done here which gives such evidence of solid scholarship joined to a deep and strong religious spirit. The ‘Bible for Young People’ should be the means to very many, both old and young, of a more satisfying idea of what Israel really was and did among the nations.”
