The Bible And The Child - Frederic William Farrar - Bog

The Bible and the Child: The Higher Criticism and the Teaching of the Young is a book written by Frederic William Farrar, first published in 1897. The book is an exploration of the relationship between the Bible and children, and how the higher criticism of the Bible can be used to teach young people about religion.Farrar begins by discussing the importance of teaching children about religion, and how the Bible can be used as a tool for moral education. He then delves into the concept of higher criticism, which is the study of the Bible as a historical and literary document, rather than as a purely religious text.Farrar argues that the higher criticism can be a valuable tool for teaching children about the Bible, as it allows them to understand the historical and cultural context in which the text was written. He also discusses the importance of teaching children to think critically about the Bible, and to question the interpretations and translations that they encounter.Throughout the book, Farrar provides examples of how the higher criticism can be used to teach children about the Bible, including discussions of the creation story, the story of Noah's Ark, and the life of Jesus. He also explores the role of storytelling in religious education, and provides guidance on how to use stories from the Bible to teach moral lessons.Overall, The Bible and the Child: The Higher Criticism and the Teaching of the Young is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the relationship between the Bible and children, and how the higher criticism can be used to teach young people about religion in a meaningful and engaging way.Also Authored By Walter F.
