Weiss, Bernard. Religion of the New Testament; tr. from the Germ. by G: H. Schodde. [*]$2. Funk.
The object of the book is “to give a ‘brief but clear’ answer to the question, what is the religion of the New Testament?... The book is divided into three parts. In part I, Dr. Weiss describes the suppositions or conditions of the redemption described in the New Testament. In part II, he discusses the redemption in Christ proper. Here the subjects discussed are the redemptive acts of God. In the third part he treats of the realization of redemption in the individual and in the congregation, in the present and in the world to come.”—N. Y. Times.
“With all his splendid exegetical and critical qualities, Professor Weiss does not write in the spirit of the historian. But this is the only serious general criticism one feels compelled to pass upon what is, in fact, a remarkably able work.” S. M.

“As an exegete Dr. Weiss excels. Men of all schools will find something to learn from it.”
