Bishop Colenso On The Horns Of A Dilemma is a book written by John William Colenso in 1863. The book is a theological work that explores the contradictions and difficulties found in the Bible, particularly in the Old Testament. Colenso, who was the Bishop of Natal in South Africa at the time, argues that traditional interpretations of the Bible are flawed and that a more critical approach is needed to understand the text. He examines various biblical stories and passages, including the account of the creation of the world, the story of Noah's Ark, and the Ten Commandments. Colenso's work was controversial at the time of its publication, and he was accused of heresy by some members of the Church. However, the book also received praise for its scholarly approach to the Bible and its attempt to reconcile faith and reason. Today, Bishop Colenso On The Horns Of A Dilemma is considered an important work in the history of biblical criticism and theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
