Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A New Rendering of the Hebrew Psalms Into English Verse: With Notes, Critical, Historical and Biographical, Including and Historical Sketch of the French, English and Scotch Metrical Versions Three thousand years ago the Hebrew Decachord, "The Tenstringed Law," was boldly swept by Prophet-fingers. The sweetness of the music has filled the world. The chords are vibrating yet. "Voice and Verse, those sphere-born harmonious sisters, wed their divine sounds," fitly preluding, "That undisturbéd song of pure concent, Aye sung before the sapphire-colored throne To Him that sits thereon, With saintly shout and solemn jubilee; - Where the bright Seraphim in burning row, Their loud uplifted angel trumpets blow, And the Cherubic hosts, in thousand quires, Touch their immortal harps of golden wires, With those just spirits that wear victorious palms, Hymns devout and holy psalms Singing everlastingly." The inspiration of the Psalms is not pagan and feigned; not merely poetic, but really and truly divine. We believe them to be in a high and special sense God-inspired. The Muse is avowedly "Heavenly" - the same "That on the secret top Of Oreb and of Sinai did inspire That Shepherd who first taught the chosen seed In the beginning how the heavens and earth Rose out of chaos." Undoubtedly the Psalms were written for our learning, and were meant for all time. So long as man is man they must have a function for him. Other things grow old, but these do not. Other things die, but these live. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
