  Marcus Dods - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
DODS, MARCUS (1834-1909), Scottish divine and biblical scholar, was born at Belford, Northumberland, the youngest son of Rev. Marcus Dods, minister of the Scottish church of that town.
In 1889 he was appointed professor of New Testament Exegesis in the New College, Edinburgh, of which he became principal on the death of Dr Rainy in 1907.
Several of his writings, especially a sermon on Inspiration delivered in 1878, incurred the charge of unorthodoxy, and shortly before his election to the Edinburgh professorship he was summoned before the General Assembly, but the charge was dropped by a large majority, and in 1891 he received the honorary degree of D.D. from Edinburgh University.

 Prof. Henry Drummond, Addresses
In the ordinary course of his duties, he delivers a series of addresses to his students on the reconcilements between religion and science, and one or two of these addresses find their way into print.
It is said that it was the keen and practiced eye of Dr. Marcus Dods which first discerned their great merit, and it was at his earnest soli-citation they were collected and published.
His theological position is the same as that of his friends Dr. Dods and Dr. Bruce, though with such differences as are personal to the man. Broadly speaking, that position is the position of the Reconciliationist.

Dr. G. Bliss, the Baptist commentator, has an interesting note on "never despairing." This, he says, "gives a better text than the Common Version, for charity sermons; but let anniversary preachers and the representatives of benevolent institutions note how and where the reward for Christian benevolence is to be paid.
As Dr. Garvie puts it: "It may be admitted that the historical reality of Jesus gives to the content of the consciousness of the living Christ, in which the historical reality is, as it were, spiritually diffused and continued, a definiteness which any consciousness of the Spirit's presence and activity lacks.

Dr Russ Humphreys, and he claims that he’s one of those people like myself who believes in the straightforward reading of Scripture that the earth is thousands of years old, not millions or billions.
Dr Lisle because you are, as I understand it, your emphasis on the 24-hour period makes this a much more critical issue.
As Dr Lisle has indicated that salvation doesn’t rest on this but a foundational understanding of salvation may. This is really boiling it down for the person on the street.

Marcus Dods wrote a book entitled, Presbyterianism Older than Christianity, by which he meant that the synagogue system (which he regarded as identical to Presbyterianism) predated the New Testament.
Douglas Bannerman, in the book most commonly received by Presbyterians as the standard work on the subject, The Scripture Doctrine of the Church, devotes considerable space to the establishment of the fact that New Testament church organization and worship is predicated upon the synagogue model.
We will conclude this section (explaining why we feel so strange in defending the synagogue model of church government to self-described Presbyterians) with the Dods quote in its original context: "This, then, is the reason you do not find distinct traces in the New Testament of the creation of the Presbyterian form of Church government.

Besides, in those days the integrity of the sacred books was so faithfully safeguarded from corruption by a body of Jewish Scribes that "the appearance of the Septuagint" would not have been "greeted with enthusiasm everywhere" if it were not an exact translation of the 46 books of inspired Hebrew text.

It is strange to be in a position to having to prove to Presbyterians the proposition that the church in the New Testament is built upon the synagogue model, seeing that this fact is ordinarily employed by them as a justification for their system of government!
In 1873, Dr. Marcus Dods wrote a book entitled, Presbyterianism Older than Christianity, by which he meant that the synagogue system (which he regarded as identical to Presbyterianism) predated the New Testament.
John MacPherson, in his excellent handbook, Presbyterianism, writes, In general, the Christian forms of worship were modeled on those of the Jewish synagogue, and so where any customs in worship or office in the Christian church are spoken of without explanation, we may reasonably look to the arrangements of the synagogue for enlightenment.

One of the great cornerstones in the history of Christian thought, "The City of God" is vital to an understanding of modem Western society and how it came into being.
By means of his contrast of the heavenly and earthly cities -- the one pagan, self-centered, and contemptous of God, and the other devout, God-centered, and in search of grace -- Augustine explored and interpreted human history in relation to eternity.
