Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Narrow Ax in Biblical Criticism We did a deal of work in the old barn floor on cold winter days - made nearly all the tools used in carrying on a farm whose working power was represented by four or six oxen - carts, sleds, drags, harrows. Sometimes we got out the frame of a new house or barn or shed. A log was rolled into the floor, or cut in on skids with pry or crowbar, blocked up and trigged. Then the chalk line was snapped along the top on the two sides, and a man mounted the log to cut in, along at intervals, with a narrow ax, to the chalk line. That done, the outside to the depth of the cuttings was chipped off, and the log began to take the square shape for further work to the end designed. Many serviceable farm implements have been made with no tools but a narrow ax, an auger, chisel and mallet - implements by which the struggle for existence was successfully carried on, a family fed, clothed, schooled, and perhaps a boy sent to college. Whereto this parable? The following pages are analogous,in Biblical study and criticism, to the processes of the old barn floor. They are a thing of narrow axes, cross-cut saws, chalk lines, mallets and chisels. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
