Excerpt from What Saith the Scripture?: An Exposition and Analysis of the Pentateuch and Earlier Historical Books of the Old Testament; With Explanatory and Practical Notes
In the investigation of the separate books of the Old Testament a chronological arrangement is followed, which recognises the consecutiveness of historical events and the order of dates as far as can be ascertained. Yet this ebro nological order is only carried out in a broad and general way, so that whilst the arrangement of the books of the Old Testament differs from that of the Authorized Version, the ordinary sequence of chapters has not been interfered with, except where the historical events absolutely compelled, as in the books of Judges, Kings, Chronicles, Jeremiah, and notably in the Book of Psalms. At the same time, it should be distinctly remembered that the division into chapters and verses is quite arbitrary and of modern human invention.
The Hebrew text of Van der Hooght, 1705, is taken as the received text.1 The Authorized Version is taken as the English translation, pending the publication of the long promised Revised Version. Only a very few alterna tive readings, but several amended translations, are noted or suggested; and the help afforded by the Sinaitic, Vatican, and Alexandrian manuscripts, the Septuagint, Syriac, and Latin Vulgate versions is fully acknowledged.

Product Description:
Excerpt from What Saith the Scripture?: An Exposition and Analysis of the Pentateuch and Earlier Historical Books of the Old Testament; With Explanatory and Practical Notes The design of this book is to supply the Bible student with a guide and help to the consecutive study of the word of God as a whole. Referring the reader to the authors previous work, "Searching the Scriptures," for a more detailed account of suggestions for the daily reading as well as the study and meditation of the Bible, it will be sufficient now to mention some general matters connected with the present volume. This is intended to be, not so much lectures on the books of the Old Testament, or a commentary on the same, as an exposition and analysis of the books themselves, necessarily very brief and general, with the exception of the book of Genesis, which is more fully considered. Thus to read the following pages with profit, it is essential to have the open Bible for constant reference and verification. In this way the diligent student will be brought into close contact with the word of God itself; and the various portions thereof being mapped out with more or less detail, the attention will be concentrated on the sacred page especially, there will be Divine communion through the Word, the voice of the Spirit will be recognised and heeded, the heart will respond thereto, and the authors one great desire, of rendering assistance in searching the Scriptures, will be realized.
