Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bards of the Bible The succeeding work does not profess to be an ela borate or full account of the mechanical structure of Hebrew poetry, nor a work of minute and verbal criticism. In order that the book may be tried by its own pretensions, the author deems it necessary to premise that, While containing much literary criticism, and a considerable proportion of biographical and religious matter, and While meant to develop indi rectly a subsidiary argument for the truth and divinity of the Bible, its main ambition is to be a Prose Poem, or Hymn, in honor of the Poetry and Poets Of the inspired volume, although, as the reader Will per ceive, he has occasionally diverged into the analysis of Scripture characters, and more rarely into cognate fields of literature or of speculation.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1851 edition. Excerpt: ... SUPPLEMENTARY CHAPTER. THE POETICAL CHARACTERS m SCRIPTURE. Beside the authors and poets of the Old and New Testaments, there are, in the course of both, a number of characters depicted, teeming with peculiar and romantic interest, and who are abundantly entitled to the epithet poetical. It were unpardonable, in a book professing to include a summary of all the poetical elements of the Book of God, to omit a rapid survey of these, neither mute nor inglorious, although no songs have they sung, nor treatises of truth recorded, but who, "being dead, yet speak," in the eloquence, passion, devotion, or peculiarity and wickedness, of their histories. We are, therefore, tempted to annex the following chapter, as an appendix to the volume. First among these, stands Adam himself. How interesting the circumstances of his formation!

God had only said--"Let there be light, let there be a firmament, let the waters be gathered together, let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind;" but, when man was to be taken out of the clay, the style of Deity rises, if we may so speak, above itself, and he says--" Let us make man after our own likeness." We may imagine ourselves present at this thrilling moment. A mist is watering the face of the ground, and partially bedimming the sun. Slowly, yet mysteriously, is the red clay drawn out of the ground, fashioned, and compacted into the shape of man, till the future master of the world is, as to his bodily part, complete, and lies, statue-like and still, upon the dewey ground. But speedily, like a gentle breeze, the breath of...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men of the Bible A great many people are afraid of the will of God, and yet I believe that one of the sweetest lessons that we can learn in the school of Christ is the surrender of our wills to God, letting Him plan for us and rule our lives. If I know my own mind, if an angel should come from the throne of God and tell me that I could have my will done the rest of my days on earth, and that everything I wished should be carried out, or that I might refer it back to God, and let God's will be done in me and through me, I think in an instant I would say.

Samuel returned to the door of the taber nacle, and addressed the assembled people. He repeated the words he had heard in the holy 'place, and then described the evils Of a monar chical government. He told them they were choosing a master who would use them but as his servants. He will take your sons to run before his chariots, said the prophet, and to make music for him, and till his lands. He will make your daughters his cooks and hand maids; while of your sheep and your fields he will take a tenth. Ye will cry out, then, to the Lord to save you, and he will not hear.
