Publisher's Synopsis
Bishop Colenso, Objections To The Historical Truth Of The Pentateuch: Answered By His Own Concessions And Admissions (1863) is a book written by George Simpson Ingram. The book is a response to the objections raised by Bishop John William Colenso regarding the historical accuracy of the Pentateuch. Colenso was a bishop in the Anglican Church who had raised serious doubts about the accuracy of the biblical account of the Israelites' journey from Egypt to Canaan. He argued that the Pentateuch was not a reliable historical account, and that many of the events described in it were either exaggerated or completely fabricated.Ingram's book provides a detailed rebuttal to Colenso's objections, using Colenso's own concessions and admissions to undermine his arguments. Ingram argues that Colenso's objections are based on a flawed understanding of biblical history and that his conclusions are not supported by the available evidence. He also argues that Colenso's objections are motivated by a desire to discredit the Bible and undermine the authority of the Church.The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it easy for readers to follow the arguments presented. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Pentateuch and the debates surrounding its accuracy. Overall, Bishop Colenso, Objections To The Historical Truth Of The Pentateuch: Answered By His Own Concessions And Admissions (1863) is an important contribution to the ongoing discussion about the reliability of the Bible as a historical document.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
