Excerpt from Synoptical Lectures on the Books of Holy Scripture: First Series, Genesis, Song of Songs
With these convictions, I feel it my duty, as a Pastor and Teacher of the Church, to discourse of the Bible at large. My plan is to indicate the scope of each Book of Scripture, and to furnish in brief a compend or digest of its contents. To dilate were an easy task, but it would weary my hearers, deter my readers, and defeat my object. Therefore I have subjected my matter to rigorous compres sion; and, though I am far better pleased with my plan than with my execution of it, I hope, with God's blessing, to persevere until I have completed a synopsis of the whole Bible.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, written by a man who lived more than three thousand years ago, presents a detailed, religious history of mankind. It records the origin of that nation in which true knowledge of God was preserved during long ages of ignorance and idolatry. The author was divinely guided as he compiled from pre-existing fragments of history, piecing them together without any concealment. The simple, popular way in which great natural facts are stated, and the sketching out of the order of Creation in large and graphic outlines, shows that it was intended to be a religious narrative to record the origin of the Hebrew nation in which the true knowledge of God was preserved during long ages of ignorance and idolatry. The historical importance of this book lies in the light it casts on the early history of man, providing more information than any other ancient book on things like geography and ethnology. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331366447_0
