Excerpt from Stories From the Old Testament The stories in this book are those which were told and retold by the Hebrew people a long time ago, and are found in that part Of the Bible called the Old Testament. It is good for us to know what they in that far-oe time thought about the things which we still think about and won der over, - the earth, the people and creatures upon it, and the God who made it. We must keep in mind the fact that we are not reading histories, but stories which give us thoughts about things instead of facts about them. We are not to think that all they tell us is true, but read the stories for the truth that is in them. In them God walks on the earth, and talks with men as if He were Himself a man. Sometimes He sends angels to speak for Him and to do what He wants to have done. This was the Old-time way of thinking and speaking; but we may be lieve that God spoke in the past as He speaks to-day, - that is, in the thought and conscience of those who love Him. Who ever brings to us a word Of truth and life is His angel, or mes senger. Sometimes He and His servants do impossible things and things which do not seem to us right or good. This is be cause the stories come to us from a time when people did not have schools and churches and the same thoughts of what is good and true that we have today. But in each story there is a lesson that is as good for us as it was for them of olden time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Bible Stories: Old Testament Kings and Prophets, The Exile and Return.* Each period is represented by its most important stories; the purpose of the introduction and notes to each section is to weave all together by indicating briefly the bearing of each story on the general history. Thus it is hoped that the whole volume may leave on a young mind an impression of Old Testament history, in outline complete (however scanty), but with outline supplemented by the most vivid picturing of important points. With the selection of stories no one will be satisfied, least of all the editor. But those who may be inclined to be censorious on this subject should try the experiment of making a selection themselves, and they will see how an editor has to sacrifice his own favour ites to stern limitations of space and suitability.

Excerpt from Bible Stories From the Old Testament I N preparing this book of Bible stories the writer has had but one purpose above all others, to present to the childish mind the old Biblical tales without the sense of injustice and cruelty Which were unfortunately impressed upon her own mind in the days when she pored over the family Bible, studying the pictures of Adam and Eve being driven out of Eden, of Cain being chastised by God, of the flood, of Abraham ready to plunge the knife into Isaac's innocent body, and spelling out a sentence here and there which, to her untaught, unguided mind, seemed to speak only of God's anger, God's vengeance, God's wrath, God's jealousy.

Excerpt from Stories From the Bible I have endeavoured to re-tell some of the chief stories of the Old Testament in the hope that what I have written may, with God's blessing, help those who teach and those who learn. To account for and defend the omissions that I have made and the explanations that I have added is impossible within the limits of a preface. They must be left to the kind judgment of my readers, who will not fail to understand that a task which may at first sight seem easy is really very difficult. The language of Scripture has been commonly followed, sometimes imitated to the best of my power. Explanations which could not be so expressed have been put into the shape of notes. I hope to follow this volume with a second in which others of the Old Testament Stories will be given. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Old Testament Story: Retold for Young People The Bible tells us the story of the Jews and of Jesus Christ. All the Old Testament and almost all the New were written by Jews, and Jesus Christ was born a Jew. The history of the Jews is part of the story of Jesus Christ, because it explains how God prepared the way for Christ; how the teaching of the prophets helped men to understand the words of Christ; and how wealth and poverty, victory and defeat, imperial power and shameful slavery, alike fashioned the Jews to be kinsfolk of the Saviour of the world. The Jews, as we call them, called themselves Israel, or the children of Israel, or, as we should say, the Israelites; and so, in speaking of Old Testament times, we too will call them Israel or the Israelites. In this chapter we go back to the first beginnings of the Bible and of Israel. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Old Testament Stories: Selected for the Children These stories from the Bible are very old. Hundreds of years before they were written down at all they were told over and over again to the children of Israel by their parents. You may be sure that the things about their forefathers which were remembered for so long were the things that made the people of long ago most real to the children of Israel. And they are real to us too, for we see that these men of the old world were not unlike ourselves: the good people then loved obedience and patience, kindness and truth; and the evil things they had to fight against were disobedience, bad temper, and deceit. So their struggles were like ours, and this draws us near to them; but what draws us nearer still, is that over and over again we see that God helped them when they asked Him, just as He helps us now.

Excerpt from Old Testament Stories These stories from the Old and New Testaments have been written because many of the books, similar in purpose, now in circulation, are considered unsatisfactory for various reasons, In consequence, many Convents and schools, as well as a considerable number of private individuals, have asked for something to replace them. I need not say that nothing has been aimed at in the following pages, by way of literary effect or of erudition. It has been hoped that extreme simplicity combined with a minimum of aid to visualisation, will have caused the stories to be at once loyal to their original and appealing to children's imagination. Reverence for the divine narrative claims that we should desert the text as little as possible, and every kind of modesty exacts from us the recognition that we never can improve upon the Bible; and if I am frankly to confess my own preference, it is that even children should be taught to love the history of God's chosen People by reading it immediately in the sacred pages, though I pray, the while, for that perfected translation which has so long been promised us. Therefore these 'Bible Stories' aim at seeing themselves discarded, directly they have done their work, for God's own library. I was especially asked to insert a very few comments of some homiletic character.; and if I have arranged these tales with any intention, it is that the guiding Spirit in this history might be recognised, and that the convergence of type and hope and incident towards Him who was to Come should be made clear.

Excerpt from The Books of the Old Testament Nearly all Old Testament scholars in Germany, England, and America, who have been trained in the universities and are not adherents of the Roman Catholic faith, are agreed as to the main results which have been achieved by careful investigations carried on during the nineteenth century, though there are necessarily differences of opinion upon secondary details. It is important that the reader should realise the immense gulf which separates the modern physical conditions of book-making, since the discovery of printing, from the ancient conditions when all records were laboriously copied by hand upon such rough materials as skins or papyrus and were preserved in rolls.
