Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from How to Read the Prophets, Vol. 1: Being the Prophecies Arranged Chronologically in Their Historical Setting With Explanations, Maps, and Glossary It has often been found difficult to profit fully from the reading of the prophecies of the Old Testament. But this is especially true of the smaller prophecies. Their arrangement is so manifestly out of all historical connection with the circumstances, in which their authors lived, and the period in which they delivered their messages. Hence any light that their historical surroundings could throw upon the exact meaning of their references is entirely wanting. To make these prophecies intelligible therefore to the plainest reader, it is necessary that a chronological arrangement of the prophetic books should be adopted. Alongside of the several prophecies should be placed those portions of the Old Testament historical books, which deal with the same period. The aim of this work is consequently in this direction, even to bring within the reach of the many, a clear and succinct presentation of these prophets in their historical environment. This book is not designed for scholars, but mainly for popular use, and as an aid in the devotional reading of the Scriptures. The former have, lying to their own hand, the necessary apparatus for such an arrangement and understanding of the prophets as is to be desired. Nor does this work profess to contain anything of an original character. It is simply an attempt so to place the Old Testament writings, that they may speak for themselves. There are in the Christian Church competent scholars, who have laid us under deepest obligation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
