Reviews

[Erik Graff · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a fair and, from a Presbyterian perspective certainly, orthodox review of the contents of the Christian canon. Reading it is like reading the Encyclopaedia Britannica, a good source for mainline interpretations to check your own, hopefully more original, ideas. The fact that it was composed before Qumran and Nag Hammadhi dates it a bit, but all of the author's views likely still remain within the ambit of learned opinion.
