Overview

"A classic exposition of the biblical account of Christ's miraculous birth by the power of the Spirit.James Orr was very clear in his intentions to write this book: to inspire faith by believers in the miraculous birth of Christ through the power of the Spirit working in the young virgin, Mary. To that end, Orr explores every aspect of the Virgin birth, from the details of the biblical account in the gospels to the way the doctrine was understood in the early church, to the analogical accounts that some allege the New Testament writers borrowed from. The result is a classic comprehensive study that provides ample reasons for believing in the miraculous nature of Christ's immaculate conception. Orr's treatment also includes engagement with the most important scholarly studies on this topic.""This volume . . . is strong in its doctrinal bearings of the Virgin Birth on the sinlessness and uniqueness of the Incarnate son."" -Southern Methodist ReviewThe best book on the subject.-The New-Church ReviewProfessor Orr does not forget that the keen assault upon the doctrine of the Virgin Birth is being made for the most part by those who reject the Incarnation and deny the supernatural, and this to him is very significant. The Appendix is hardly less valuable than the book itself, containing as it does summaries of an extracts from papers on this topic contributed by representative scholars in England, America, Holland, Germany, and France.-Homiletic ReviewIt will create a profound impression, and will, without a doubt, become the standard work on the subject from the conservative standpoint. His brilliant and able statement and broad yet conservative discussion strongly recommend the book.-The Book Buyer"
