Did anyone, in a review for example, answer the slurs cast upon Dr Cyrus I. Scofield by Joseph M. Canfield in The Incredible Scofield and His Book (Vallecito CA, 1988, reissued 2004)? Where could I find such a review? Timothy Stunt
Hello Timothy,
R. Todd Mangum and Mark S. Sweetnam cover the questions to some extent in The Scofield Bible: Its History and Impact on the Evangelical Church (Colarado Springs and Milton Keynes, 2009). Available on Amazon.
There are sections on, 'Should Scofield's Divorce Have Disqualified Him From Ministries He Undertook?' and 'Was Scofield Simply A Fraud?'. Their 'Final Analysis' is at any rate a good deal more dispassionate than Canfield.
It's an area you might wish to research, but at any rate I (and perhaps a good many others) would prefer if you continued to prosecute your research into that most uncomplicated of men, the plain John Darby.
Theophilus
