The Teaching of Christ. By the Right Rev. Bishop Moorhouse.
(Macmillan.)—This volume exhibits throughout sober judgment expressed in clear terms. Nothing, to take one instance much discussed of late, could be better than what the Bishop has to say about the "Limitations of our Lord's Knowledge." He puts the matter with admirable force when he says, firstly, "that we cannot think at all but by means of limitation," and, secondly, that to affirm that divine modes of thought belong to the humanity of Christ, is either to be guilty of a contradiction in terms or to fall unconsciously into a monophysite denial of our Lord's true humanity." We would call special attention to that section of the book which deals with "Christ and his Surroundings," those " Surroundings " being described under three headings,—" The Land," "The Kingdom," and "The Unseen World." In a very brief compass, Bishop Moorhouse gives us much admirable teaching.
