Overview

Excerpt from The Vital and Social Factors in Religious Belief: Being a Study of Religion as the Passion for Life, Mediated by the Social Factor I cannot but commend this noble book, and I must commend it with all earnestness. I know well how it is the fruit of long, very long study: it is no mere hastily cast-off set of interesting sayings born Of the moment, but is the fruit of work re-considered time and again for many patient years. When our great English master Of the science of Semitic Religion, and master indeed of the science of Christian Religion, the lamented late Prof: William Robertson Smith, passed away so sadly and all too soon, he was unable to prepare, alongside of his monumental work on The Religion of the Scmites, some brief compendium and statement Of its fundamental principles for use by elementary workers. How greatly such a work would have helped men in preparation for our Christian Pastorate in these most critical days! What a blessing such a smaller work would have been! What a monument that would have been for his magnificent service of us all! How vastly do we need some such vade mecum for our theologi cal students, and our pastors and teachers as well!
