Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Examiner and General Review, 1833, Vol. 14 WE have little fafilt to find with this publication, except as regards the mode of getting it up. The pieces which enter into the collection, are, we suppose, perfectly harm less. No considerate reader, at least, can be injured by them, nor can the cause of Christianity sufl'er by their re publication, provided their origin and history, so far as known, he told. But it was due, we think, from the editor, in fairness, to state the principle on which they were ex cluded from the number of books esteemed of authority among Christians. The language of the Preface, too, is, in some respects, exceptionable. It speaks of the writings which compose the New Testament, as selected from the various Gospels and Epistles then in existence, by cer tain compilers, a mode of expression which, as will hereafter appear, is calculated to convey an erroneous im pression of the manner in which the volume of canonical Scriptures was formed.
