Excerpt from Reasonable Biblical Criticism Agnostic or cryptoagnostic criticism are not of neces sity precisely the same thing with what is currently called the newer criticism or the Modern View; but unfortunately the Modern View is saturated with agnostic elements. Many of the important articles in the Encyclopedia Biblica are from the point of view of men who would not shrink from being called agnostic. In the articles in several other recent books of reference, in such a volume as Driver's Introduction, and in a multitude of other books and articles, there is an element of agnosticism less outspoken, less sustained, less consistent. This'is true even of many works which are relatively so conservative that the bolder advocates of the Modern View regard them as mere compromise. In this little volume I am not attacking the Modern View as such, but only the agnostic or cryptoagnostic elements in it.
