    the singular charm of being direct, to the point, lucid, and without verbiage from beginning to end. . . . Dr. Hall . . . lays down, with exactness and precision, the question at issue. . . . Dr. Hall has done good work in discriminating as he has done between the views of Kenotic Schools. ... No- where have we seen a better answer to the baseless assump- tions which have been made in England and America to formulate a complete doctrine of the Incarnation out of a single passage in St. Paul’s writings.” — Living Church. “Professor Hall has presented us with a strong plea for the orthodox and traditional teaching on the side of the doctrine of the Incarnation.”—The Churchman, Toronto. “Dr. Hall’s book ... is valuable and opportune. . . . We can commend it to the clergy and to students of theology and to general readers as containing a powerful argument very clearly expressed, and as bearing marks of much careful study and thought.” — Church Quarterly Review, Jan. 1899. “Many a larger treatise lacks the note of distinction so evident here. Really this book is a patient, scholarlike and judicial examination of the most pressing problem of present day Christology. . . . The book is a fine study in dogmatic method. ... No sufficient insight in so brief a review can be given into his constant alertness, his scholarlike prepared- ness, and his entire freedom from remarks that may wound.” — Alfred Cave, in the Critical Review. “The book should be in every circulating library, and should be not merely read, but studied, as a treatise which from its merits is a candidate for a place as a handbook upon an integral question in theology.” —Church Times. “Dr. Hall has given us in a small compass a really learned and able treatise on a doctrine which has recently been made the subject of much earnest discussion among us. He writes with real knowledge of his subject, and brings to bear upon it a singularly acute and thoughtful mind.” — Guardian. LONGMANS, GREEN, AND CO. NEW YORK, LONDON, BOMBAY, and CALCUTTA
