"Inspiration and Interpretation" by John William Burgon is a collection of sermons that defends the Bible's authority against growing doubt and modern interpretations that weaken its teachings. Written in response to the controversial "Essays and Reviews," the book argues for the importance of believing in the divine inspiration of Scripture. Burgon sets the stage by expressing his concerns about the increasing skepticism towards traditional Christian teachings, especially those coming from within the clergy, stressing the need for strong theological education and a firm belief in the Bible as the basis of faith, leading into his defense of scriptural truths.
