To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
§ 140. How do these books compare with the Old Testament Apocrvpha? What is thoir intrinsic worth? What is their adven- FEW TESTAMENT LITERATURE. 127 first place, they illustrate, by a glaring contrast, the perfection of the Scriptures, in comparison with writers of the same race and religion, and in some cases almost of the same age. Even the Apostol- ical Fathers answer the same purpose of exhibiting the difference between inspired and uninspired men of the same general character and class ; ...but the contrast is vastly more instructive as presented in these obvious imitations and professed improve- ments on the sacred record.
§ 141. In the next place, they illustrate the dis- cretion, care, and even critical skill, with which the ancient church preserved the sacred Canon and as- serted its exclusive claims against so many, and such impudent, competitors. Not that the present Canon is, as some allege, a gradual selection made, as taste and judgment were improved, from a pro- miscuous mass originally equal in their claims and estimation — which would leave us no alternative but that of making all inspired or none — but be- cause these wretched imitations, all posterior in date to the Canonical Scriptures, by their intrinsic titious value ?
