Contents:
Homer -- Herodotus -- Genesis -- Daniel -- II. Defense -- Homer -- Herodotus -- Genesis -- Daniel -- III. Verdict -- Homer -- Herodotus -- Genesis -- Daniel -- IV. Summation.
Subject: Most of us probably regard the Greek classics and the Hebrew scriptures as documents of two separate worlds. The intervention of the Greek gods in the battles of the Iliad tends to give us the impression that these events belong to a hoary antiquity. On the other hand, some who regard Herodotus as the father of history do not seem to appreciate the historical perspective of the Hebrew writers.
