| Résumé: | Thus, Sperry and Snell might be best viewed as pioneers who laid the groundwork for needed continuing intellectual encounters with scriptural issues by faithful scholars.[112] Sperry's and Snell's work suggests to us that there are some scriptural issues that are difficult, if not impossible, to find a suitable accommodation theory for. The first three issues are derived from an address Snell gave to a convention of Church educators in 1937, issues that Snell felt were particularly important to his Old Testament institute students.[62] The last two are additional issues that Sperry and Snell, respectively, were particularly concerned with. College certification would require the use of a textbook that reflected adequate scholarship and, unlike Sperry's, that lacked denominational dogma.[41] Second, West was impressed with Snell's approaches to the Old Testament problems, which Snell had enumerated in enthusiastically received presentations to Mormon educators.[42] Snell had also delivered a popular series of lectures on the Bible, which West felt were "very fine." For examples, see Sperry to J. Reuben Clark Jr., Oct. 22, 1948; Snell to Sperry, Feb. 9, 1939; Sperry to Snell, Feb. 10, 1939, Sperry papers. |
