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 Outlines of Old Testament History: Progressive Grade, With Written-Answer Questions for the Older Classes This Outline of Old Testament History has been prepared in the hope that it may be found useful in giving a clear conception of the progress of events connected with the history of the chosen people. One of the most important questions in the preparation of such an outline is whether the lessons shall be extended over two or more years, or be condensed into a single year. At first thought the larger number of lessons may seem preferable because they give time for a more careful study of details. But in outline study it is of the first importance not to dwell on details, for otherwise the outlines are lost in a maze of subordinate incidents. Such has been the experience of multitudes in the study of the Old Testament. The principal thing to be sought in such study is a comprehensive survey of the whole history, and the smaller the number of lessons in which this can be done the better. The details may be studied later as occasion arises. A careful analysis of Old Testament history shows that it can readily be treated in about forty topics, each repte senting a distinct forward step in the history. We regard it of primary importance that each of these topics or steps be covered by a single lesson and no more, so that the topic and its significance shall stand out clearly before the mind. These outlines have been arranged in accordance with this principle. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Study the Old Testament in a Series of Questions The object of these questions is to teach the history of the Jewish people, in its connection with the Psalms, prophets, and New Testament. Those who fail to study one part of the Bible with another, miss much of the interest of the Book, as well as the grand aim of the whole. There are those who ignore the Old Testament as unspiritual and unpracticable. To such the example of our Lord should be enough. He constantly instructed the people in the Old Testament; and in his very last hours with his disciples, after his resurrection, we are told, that, beginning at Moses, and all the Prophets, he expounded unto them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself. "Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the Scriptures." Much of the New Testament, which consists so largely in quotations from and allusions to the Old Testament, must be a dead letter to those ignorant of the connection of such passages. The Epistle to the Hebrews is an enigma to those unacquainted with the Jewish ritual. The record of the sacrifices and services of the Jewish Church are God's own illustrations of the atonement and way of access for sinners to Him. The Passover, the daily bloody sacrifices, the brazen serpent, the Tabernacle, all set forth the "Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world." The recorded experience and biography of the Old Testament are but illustrations of the principles laid down in the New Testament.

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.

This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Old Testament, Critical, Historical, and Theological, Vol. 1: Containing a Discussion of the Most Important Questions Belonging to the Several Books The following work is offered to the public with the view of supplying a want in English theological literature. Since the year 1856 the idea has gradually strengthened in the author's mind that there is room for an Introduction to the Old Testament, in which processes should be given as well as results. The space allotted to him in a volume published in that year was too limited to satisfy the necessary requirements. He did for the Old Testament then what appeared right and proper. But he felt that he had not done full justice either to the subject or himself. Longer time, deeper reflection, and repeated investigation were demanded, because difficult themes cannot be satisfactorily settled without protracted study. Accordingly since 1857 his mind has been occupied with the chief questions relating to the books of the Old Testament; with the view of arriving at such results respecting them as the evidence seems to justify. The process has been slow and gradual, because he has often striven against new views and tried to uphold traditional sentiments as long as he could. He has thought it a duty to maintain conservative opinions whenever he could honestly do so. In cases where they could not stand the test of true criticism they had to be abandoned.

This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Old Testament, Critical, Historical, and Theological, Vol. 2: Containing a Discussion of the Most Important Questions Belonging to the Several Books The second chapter commences with an account of David's last words to Solomon, and his death after a reign of forty years. This dying charge related to the young king's faithful observance of the divine laws; to Joab, whose "hoar head he was not to let go down to the grave in peace;" to the sons of Barzillai, the Gileadite; to Shimei, whom he was to hold guilty for his insulting conduct, and to bring down his hoary head to the grave with blood (1-11). After this Adonijah made interest with Bathsheba to ask for him, from her son, Abishag the maid, who had cherished the old king in marriage. The petition was presented in due form, but was refused; and being construed as an indication of a fresh design on the throne, the king ordered him to be put to death. In pursuance of the same vindictive measures recommended by David before his death, Abiathar was deprived of the priesthood, and banished to Anathoth. His life was spared because he had borne the ark before David, and sympathised in David's afflictions. On hearing of this, Joab took refuge in the sanctuary; but that did not save him, for Benaiah was ordered to go thither and slay him, which he did accordingly. Benaiah was put in the post of Joab; and Zadok in that of Abiathar. Shimei was sent for by the king to Jerusalem, ordered to build an house there, and never to leave the place on the peril of his life. But at the end of three years he went to Gath in pursuit of two slaves. When he had returned with them to Jerusalem the king sent for him, reminded him of what he had done to David, and ordered him to be slain (12-46). The third chapter describes Solomon's marriage to the daughter of the king of Egypt; and how he and the people sacrificed in high places, which was contrary to the law. The chief high place was Gibeon, where God appeared to him in a dream, and promised to give him not only wisdom in answer to his petition, but also riches and honour. Returning to Jerusalem, he offered sacrifice before the ark of the covenant, and made a feast to all his servants (1-15). Immediately after, he gave a proof of his wisdom in determining the real mother of a child; so that his fame was spread abroad (16-28). The fourth chapter commences with a list of his principal officers in different departments (1-6). This is followed by another, in which it is said that he had twelve officers over all Israel to furnish supplies for the royal household, eacli a month in the year. Their names and districts are also specified (7-19). About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Essays on Some Biblical Questions of the Day written by Henry Barclay Swete and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Some Biblical Questions of the Day: By Members of the University of Cambridge The present series of Essays is a sequel to the Cambridge Theological Essays published in 1905. Its purpose is to represent the attitude of Cambridge students of the Old and New Testaments towards some of the Biblical questions of our time, so far as this can be done within the limits of a volume. Many who do not regard themselves as theologians are attracted by the literary problems of the Bible, and no labours in this field are more welcome or fruitful than those of scholars whose life-work is in subjects which lie outside the province of Theology but are cognate and ancillary to it. Hence on this occasion it has been not only possible but desirable to invite the cooperation of writers who could not have been expected to take part in the earlier volume. All the contributors to the Theological Essays were members of the English Church, and all but one were of the clergy; the present book, on the other hand, contains Essays by members of several religious bodies, and among the Essayists are five laymen. In a volume of Biblical Essays it has not seemed necessary to secure any approach to uniformity either of religious convictions or of critical position; a sufficient bond of unity has been found in the knowledge that all the writers are serious students of the Bible, and that each of them from his own point of view has something to offer as the fruit of his studies to those who share his interest in the greatest of books.
