VISHOP'S WISH YOL EXPURGATED EDITION.

The Dean of Durham (Bishop Welldon), preaching in connection with the British and Foreign Bible Society in Durham Cathedral on. December 10th, referred at lugth to the Bible, which, he declared, was not all of equal value. There were parts of it of little value to-day. He sometimes wished it were possible to publish an expurgated Bible with the omission of certain passages which were repugnant to modern feeling unch as oc curred in the Pentateuch, or the Bis torical books, or even the Psalter. At all evente, bo would urge that Christiana should concentrate their thought not upon the whole Bible so much us upon the New Testament, and especially upon the Gos pela The Church rando no claim of infal ibility for the Bible. She did not define, although she certainly did not deny, the inspiration of the Bible All the laid down was that nobody could properly be required to accept any doctrine is ne omary to malvation takes that doctrine was explicitly or implicitly contained in the Bible.
