Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Testament History The present treatment of Old Testament history aims to conform to the object of the series as handbooks to Bible study. The Bible itself is, accordingly, the main primary source. In each Section the biblical text, as indicated in the margin, is the basis Of the discussion, and requires the first attention of the student. Where the biblical material is most abundant the history is consequently the fullest. But it has become increasingly evident that the material of the Bible is not chronologically arranged, but that accounts centuries apart in their origin and point of view are Often found side by Side or interwoven with each other. The recognition of this fact is the result of the historical and scientific method of the Bible study of our day. It will account for the order and method here adopted. If the reason for the procedure is not always fully stated, it is due to the design of the series not to deal SO much with the process as with the results achieved. Only where Silence would leave the biblical situation obscure was it deemed necessary to enter into the discussion of critical questions, and then only in the briefest way possible. The logical movement of Old Testament history which is the outcome of the critical use of the biblical material proves ultimately its strongest justification.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief Biblical History: Old Testament Religious education is one of the many problems of our day, and nowhere is the difficulty more acute than in the case of the Old Testament. Under no circumstances is it an easy task to arrange the different component parts of a volume so varied in such a manner as to give a young student a clear idea of its meaning and purpose. Isolated stories may arouse interest, but their connexion with the rest is not very obvious. Here and there a psalm or prophecy may touch the heart; but it stands as a thing apart, without anything to account for its origin. Not unfrequently, moreover, in the course of instruction in a particular book we meet with narratives apparently unedifying, or sentiments which are certainly not in accord with the highest views today. There is the further difficulty of answering questions like Is such an account true? Is this or that statement in accordance with what we are taught in a lesson on science or geography? Do people really believe this? For youth is a season of credulous scepticism. A child will accept much on authority, and at the same time is ready with questions going to the Very root of a matter. He also possesses an instinctive power of detecting that the teacher is himself doubtful as to the facts on which he is insisting.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Class-Book of Old Testament History Seeing that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her, and he did eat. Thus the fell counsels of the Tempter were accomplished. Through want of faith in God's word, through a longing for independence, through a vain desire to become gods unto themselves, our first parents were beguiled into sin, and when their eyes were opened, instead of greater happiness they now experienced the strange and hither to unknown consciousness of shame, and degradation, and unmeetness for God's presence (gen.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Testament History: With Three Maps Hastings' Dictionary of tite Bible. Nevertheless, though I have drawn freely upon the learning of previous writers, I have throughout endeavoured to verify their assertions and to check their inferences, so that the opinions ex pressed have not been formed without independent inquiry and a sense of responsible judgment. Of the many defects of my work, due to limitations partly of space and partly of capacity, I am fully con scious, but its deficiencies will perhaps appear less serious if account be taken of the class of readers whose wants it is meant to supply. It is not intended for scholars, who will find in it little that is unfamiliar except the mistakes, but for less advanced students, who require in a text-book not so much extensive erudition as simplicity of method and perspicuity of statement. If it satisfies in any degree the needs of such, it will have achieved its purpose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book How to Study the Old Testament Classic Reprint written by Frank Knight Sanders and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Study the Old Testament The aim of this course of study is to enable each student to gain a clear, comprehensive and proportionate knowledge of the chief characters, events, movements and ideas represented by Old Testament history, and to secure a bird's-eye view of Old Testament literature and thinking. Method These outlines divide the year's work into 104 definite assignments so that the entire Old Testament may be covered in one year of private reading and study, in one year's college work (three hours a week), or in classes in one year of fifty-two weeks (two assignments a week). The outlines are based on Sanders' "History of the Hebrews" and in each lesson the first reading reference is always to that work. The reading references to the four volumes of Kent's "Historical Bible" present a clear translation and arrangement of the more important Old Testament writings and with the accompanying historical, geographical and literary interpretations furnish an ample basis for connected reading and study. It will always be understood that an essential part of the preparation for each lesson is the careful answering of the questions which are placed at the beginning of each group of numbered sections of Sanders' "History of the Hebrews." (For example, section 33, page 25.) These questions are carefully formulated in order to direct the Bible reading of the student and to save his time. If every question is answered thoughtfully from the Bible, and if the incidental references are looked up, the student cannot fail to gain a complete working knowledge of the subject. At the end of each lesson additional reading references are given which are entirely optional and are intended for those having access to additional reference books. These references may be utilized for advanced study or in the preparation of special papers. In connection with each lesson the outstanding facts are given and these should be carefully noted.

Book excerpt: 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.

Book excerpt: 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.
