Excerpt from A Glance at the Higher Criticism The term Higher Criticism does not carry its mean ing on its face. It is a technical term, and somewhat arbitrary as a designation. The word criticism, as applied to the Scriptures, perhaps to some suggests hostility and Opposition. But that sense of the word is secondary. Criticism strictly means discerning, hence inquiry and ascertainment. Biblical criticism is the due weighing of the questions which pertain, not so much to the interpretation of the contents of Scrip ture (that is Biblical exegesis) as to the external form and vehicle which brings these contents. Hence, Biblical criticism is an entirely legitimate thing. It has always been included in the curriculum of studies in all our best theological seminaries. While there is rationalistic criticism and destructive criticism, there is also believing and reverent criticism.
