Controversial but immensely influential, this work by J. Rendel Harris (1852-1941) argues for the existence of a compilation, which Harris called the 'Testimony Book', consisting of prophecies of Christ collected from the Old Testament. Volume 2 (1920) seeks to prove that the New Testament relied upon this source.
