September 2008. Here is a link to an interview I did for my contribution to the
English Standard Version Study Bible (Ephesians)

"Let it never be forgotten that a theological seminary is a school for specialists. We are living in an age of
specialization. There are specialists on eyes and specialists on noses, and throats, and stomachs, and feet,
and skin; there are specialists on teeth—one set of specialists on putting teeth in, and another set of
specialists on pulling teeth out—there are specialists on Shakespeare and specialists on electric wires;
there are specialists on Plato and specialists on pipes. Amid all these specialties, we at Westminster Seminary
have a specialty which we think, in comparison with these others, is not so very small. Our specialty is found
in the Word of God. Specialists in the Bible—that is what Westminster Seminary will endeavor to produce.
Please do not forget it; please do not call on us for a product that we are not endeavoring to provide.
If you want specialists in social science or in hygiene or even in ‘religion’ (in the vague modern sense),
then you must go elsewhere for what you want. But if you want men who know the Bible and know it in something
more than a layman’s sort of way, then call on us." J. Gresham Machen, "Westminster Theological Seminary: Its
Purpose and Plan," in Selected Shorter Writings (D. G. Hart, ed.; Phillipsburg: P&R, 2004), 193
(an address given on September 25, 1929).
