Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Land and the Book, Vol. 1 of 2: Or Biblical Illustrations Drawn From the Manners and Customs, the Scenes and Scenery of the Holy Land Every sincere attempt to illustrate the Word of God is in itself commendable. On this fundamental fact the author rests his apology for obtruding the present work upon the notice of the public. Commentaries are daily multiplying; geographies and dictionaries, researches and travels almost innumerable, lend their aid to the student of the sacred page, and it is not proposed to add another to the long list. The author does not attempt a consecutive comment on any par ticular book of the Bible, but selects indiscriminately from all, such passages as contain the themes he desires to eluci date. The field is ample, and it is abundantly rich in sub jects for scenic and pictorial description. Whether he has succeeded in working out his own idea or not must be left for others to determine, but, if he has failed, it has not been through want of Opportunity to study the originals of which his pictures are to be Oopies. For a quarter of a century he has resided amid the scenes and the scenery to be described, and from midday to midnight, in winter and in summer, has gazed upon them with a joyous enthusiasm that never tired. The first impressions, corrected and improved by subsequent study and examination, are now reproduced for the eye of the public and the heart of the pious.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pilgrimage to the Holy Land, Vol. 1 of 2: Comprising Recollections, Sketches, and Reflections Made During a Tour in the East If the reader desires to find in these volumes aught beyond the fugitive impressions of a passenger who proceeds to his object without pausing, he had better close them. For a painter alone these notes may contain a de gree of interest; some of them are exclusively picturesque they are the written glance, the coup d'azil of a lover of nature, seated on his camel, or on the deck of his vessel, and who, with a few colorless strokes of his pencil upon the pages of his journal, sketches the landscapes as they fly before him, that he may retain some remembrance of them for the morrow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Holy Land and Holy Writ There is no originality in this linking together of the Bible and Palestine on our title page. It has been gracefully done by both Thomson and Geikie. In fact it can hardly be avoided; for the book, to be understood, must be illustrated by the habits of the people among whom it was written, and to be beautiful, must be illustrated by the vistas of Palestine's moun tains, plains, and waters; and on the other hand, the land would be a most unprofitable one for the traveler in saddle or in spirit, without its life history and without the halo that Scripture hangs around it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Holy Land and the Bible, Vol. 1 of 2: A Book of Scripture Illustrations Gathered in Palestine I visited Palestine with the intention of gathering illustra tions of the sacred writings from its hills and valleys, its rivers and lakes, its plains and uplands, its plants and animals, its skies, its soil, and, above all, from the pictures of ancient times still presented on every side in the daily life of its people. Nothing is more instructive or can be more charming, when reading Scripture, than the illumination of its texts from such sources, throwing light upon its constantly recurring Oriental imagery and local allusions, and revealing the exact meaning of words and phrases which otherwise could not be adequately understood. Its simple narratives, its divine poetry, its pro phetic Visions, its varied teachings, alike catch additional vivid ness and force when read with the aid of such knowledge. The Land is, in fact, a natural commentary on the sacred writ ings which it has given to us, and we study them as it were amidst the life, the scenery, and the local peculiarities which surrounded those to whom the Scriptures were first addressed.
