Arnold’s Bible Reading Theories Earn Harsh Critique
A critical review contrasts Matthew Arnold’s claim to read the Bible as literature with Robinson and biblical dogma. It condemns his portrayal of the Holy Spirit as a Muse, questions his handling of the Resurrection, atonement, and Trinity, and laments his relentless sarcasm toward Christian belief and church Figures. The piece argues Arnold lacks sympathy with Scripture and urges a faith-rooted, reverent reading instead.
