Description
Excerpt from St. Paul: A Study in Social and Religious History
Summing up the effect of my travels upon myself, I may say that the good germs of an historical appreciation of St. Paul, which I owed to my teachers and my own studies, underwent new growth in the apostle''s own field and beneath the rays of his sun, but that many rank shoots that had sprung up in the shade of the school walls withered under the same beams. Never for one moment, however, have I experienced the dis appointment which has come to be characteristic of the newspaper writer of letters from abroad. The New Testament and the prophets whose souls are vibrant in the Sacred Book have become greater to me than before.
