Memoranda Sacra

By J. Rendel Harris

Published by Hodder and Stoughton: London 1896

Third Edition

"Memoranda Sacra is a thoughtful collection of biblical studies and devotional reflections by the distinguished scholar J. Rendel Harris, one of the leading figures in late nineteenth-century biblical research. Written for readers interested in both faith and scholarship, the work examines passages of Scripture, early Christian traditions and theological themes with a combination of intellectual rigour and personal insight. Harris possessed a rare ability to make complex biblical questions accessible to a wider audience, and this volume reflects that talent throughout. Published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1896, this Third Edition demonstrates the popularity and continuing influence of Harris's writings during his lifetime. Coming at a time of growing scholarly interest in biblical criticism and early Christian literature, Memoranda Sacra occupies an important place in the development of modern biblical studies. Today it remains an engaging example of Victorian religious scholarship, combining devotional purpose with a serious exploration of the historical and literary world of the Bible."
