The Books of the Old and New Testaments Canonical and Inspired; with Remarks on the Apocrypha [1828, 1846]

by Robert Haldane

Overview

A well-researched and reverent presentation on the history of the books which properly belong in the Bible, how they got there, their authority and their plenary verbal inspiration are packed into 191 pages. It provides a valuable and reliable handbook on these subjects—a classic work from a theologically conservative and evangelical position. — Haldane's chapter on the Apocrypha alone makes this volume indispensable to any discussion regarding its canonicity. His able, convincingly-reasoned and historical presentation was highly contributary and instrumental to the eventual removal of the apocryphal books from non-Catholic printed Bibles. — An exhaustive Scripture Index is included with this digital version.

About the Author

Robert Haldane (1764-1842): He and his brother James were highly-influential evangelical ministers in the English-speaking world in the latter 18th and first half of the 19th centuries. — Born of Scottish parents in London, he became a well-known evangelist, writer and philanthropist. His contribution to the championing of historical biblical conservatism continues to this day, as evidenced by the many who still cherish his commentary on the epistle to the Romans.
