Excerpt from Who Wrote the Bible? A Book for the People The aim of this volume is to put into compact and popular form, for the benefit of intelligent readers, the principal facts upon which scholars are now generally agreed concerning the literary history of the Bible. The doctrines taught in the Bible will not be discussed; its claims to a supernatural origin will not be the principal mat ter of inquiry; the book will concern itself chiefly with those purely natural and human agencies which have been employed in writing, transcrib ing, editing, preserving, transmitting, translating, and publishing the Bible.

Although the Victorians were awash in texts, the Bible was such a pervasive and dominant presence that they may fittingly be thought of as 'a people of one book'. They habitually read the Bible, quoted it, adopted its phraseology as their own, thought in its categories, and viewed their own lives and experiences through a scriptural lens. This astonishingly deep, relentless, and resonant engagement with the Bible was true across the religious spectrum from Catholics to Unitarians and beyond. The scripture-saturated culture of nineteenth-century England is displayed by Timothy Larsen in a series of lively case studies of representative figures ranging from the Quaker prison reformer Elizabeth Fry to the liberal Anglican pioneer of nursing Florence Nightingale to the Baptist preacher C. H. Spurgeon to the Jewish author Grace Aguilar. Even the agnostic man of science T. H. Huxley and the atheist leaders Charles Bradlaugh and Annie Besant were thoroughly and profoundly preoccupied with the Bible. Serving as a tour of the diversity and variety of nineteenth-century views, Larsen's study presents the distinctive beliefs and practices of all the major Victorian religious and sceptical traditions from Anglo-Catholics to the Salvation Army to Spiritualism, while simultaneously drawing out their common, shared culture as a people of one book.

Excerpt from The People's Bible, Vol. 1: Discourses Upon Holy Scripture This is not a Bible Commentary in the usual sense of that term. It is a pastor's commentary upon such portions of Holy Scripture as are of obvious and immediate importance to the growth of the soul in Divine wisdom, and is, therefore, not intended to take the place of the verbal and critical commentaries which so ably represent the latest phases of Christian erudition. Instead of going minutely through any book verse by verse, the first object will be to discover its governing idea or principal purpose, and to make that clear by taking out of the book, say twelve, twenty, or thirty instances most strikingly illustrative of the writer's intention. For example, some such order as the following (always held to be variable of course) may be adopted: - Genesis: A book of Beginnings: the beginning of Creation; the beginning of Humanity; the beginning of Family life; the beginning of Disobedience; a kind of daybreak book; a wondrous dawn; an hour of revelation and vision. To get hold of this idea is to get a thorough insight into the book of Genesis. Exodus: Phases of Providence: in leadership, in national deliverances, in organisation, in codified human life, in all the mystery of human training and discipline, showing how the tabernacle of God is with men upon earth: a refuge, a judgment, a symbol. To master this idea is to seize the very spirit of the book of Exodus. Leviticus: Religious Mechanics: the Mechanics of Sin-reckoning; the Mechanics of Sacrifice; the Mechanics of Intercession; the Mechanics of Purification; the higher meaning of all these intricate and costly formalities; the unprofitableness of bodily exercise; the revelation and development of true Sacrifice.

Excerpt from Lands and Peoples of the Bible The substance of the following chapters was delivered in lecture form to a class of young men and women during the winter of 1913 - 14. A few minor additions and corrections have since been made, but the bulk of the material remains as originally delivered. The volume is now published in the hope that Bible students, and possibly teachers of Bible classes, may find it useful in the way of providing a background upon which to project the Scripture narrative, and of enabling the reader to form some conception of the great lands and nations with which the Chosen People had to deal. Such a volume, of course, can lay no claim to originality; for its main function is to present in small compass facts for which the student might otherwise have to seek through many large and costly treatises. Accordingly the reader who is familiar with the literature will be able to trace in each section the writer's debt to the great masters of the subject which is being dwelt with - a debt which is here gratefully acknowledged, just as it has been acknowledged wherever possible, in the text. It is hoped that the value of the book as a medium of instruction may be greatly enhanced by the fulness of its scheme of.

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 Neglected People of the Bible Every Christian is an Isaac. He is not created by the ordinary processes of flesh. He comes by the special and peculiar promise of God. He is a birth of supernatural grace. A Christian is a superhuman creation. A Christian is born from above. As Isaac was is the legend of every believer in Christ. The Church of Jesus is a com pany of men and women of supernatural origin. The Church is a proof of the supernatural. Yes. Every Christian is an Isaac. Never let us read of Isaac's entry into history without surveying it in the light of Paul's allegory. Each Christian of the world has had a magnificent origin. Heaven is his fatherland. He is a supernatural creation. As we are Isaacs in supernaturalness of origin why not be Isaacs in gladness? Let every Christian be joy ful in the Lord. Who has such warranty for being a son of laughter as he who is a Child of promise? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
