Note 4 — Chapter VIII · CONSERVATIVE POSITIONS
Reading edition
The Nemesis of this uncritical method appears in its development at the hands of Dr. Conybeare: “That Jesus was a successful exorcist we need not doubt, nor that he worked innumerable faith cures” (Myth, Magic, and Morals, 2nd. ed., p. 142). Such a writer “need not doubt” anything he wants to believe. In particular he “need not doubt” that the disciples were “successful exorcists” also. ↑
