I would entirely agree with Bruce that any hint that the apostolic speech was therefore not authoritative is unwarranted (not that Edersheim implied that). What is very interesting is that when the apostles gave the substance (not always word-for-word rendition) of the OT, that substance was Christ.
In something of the same way, we can understand how many of Spurgeon's sermons are so good and so Biblical, while at the same time not being exactly exegetical.
