Synopsis

This book, first of all, examines what the Bible itself says about revelation and about its own inspiration; then, while enunciating the testimony given to it by Christ and by the church throughout the centuries, it sums up theories proposed regarding it; and, finally, brings out the supernatural characteristics which attest to the divine origin of Scripture and which establish its sovereign authority.

About this title

From the Publisher

This excellent bibliology text may be a familiar one. Originally published in 1969, Pache's work has been appreciated by many as one of the best in the field. Pache is uncompromising, clear and very readable in this translation by Helen I. Needham.

From the Author

(from the Preface) One of the most significant of all themes to the Christian is that of the inspiration and authority of the Bible. The truths concerning God, Christ and salvation are surely of supreme importance. But how can we get to know these truths if it is not by means of the Scriptures themselves? In this sense, one might say that the inspiration of Scripture is the first dogma of all: If the Scriptures are truly of God, clothed with His authority and put entirely within the reach of man, all revealed religion has a solid foundation on which to stand. If, on the other hand, inspiration is uncertain, partial, or varying according to the experience and opinion of the reader or the preacher, everything totters.
