Westcott and the English Bible Aims and Dangers
The article reviews Mr. Westcott's History of the English Bible and the wider debate on biblical criticism. It contrasts hopeful clerical and reformist stances with despairing rationalist trends, praising Bunsen and Dean Alford and stressing the need for a common spiritual consciousness guiding text criticism. It cites Queen Elizabeth’s era pageantry and emphasizes continuity of Scripture through historical unity.
