The Oracles in the New Testament: Edward C. Selwyn

And as it is owned the whole scheme of Scripture is not yet understood ;so if it ever comes to be understood, before the restitution of all things, and without miraculous interpositions ;it must be in the same way as natural knowledge is come at: by the continuance and progress of learning and liberty ;and by particular persons attending to, comparing and pursuing, intimations scattered up and down it, which are overlooked and disregarded by the generality of the world. For this is the way in which all improvements are made ;by thoughtful mens tracing on obscure hints, as it were, dropped us by nature accidentally, or which seem to come into our minds by chance. Nor is it at all incredible, that a book, which has been so long in the possession of mankind, should contain many truths as yet undiscovered. BUTLER, Analogy II, iii.
