Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lessons of the Cross and Passion; Six Lectures: Delivered in Hereford Cathedral During the Week Before Easter, 1869 The first sound of the words is reposeful and comforting. I will lay me down in peace, and take my rest - so He giveth His beloved sleep - yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet - Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well - these are the ideas connected, even in the Bible, with that natural repose, that taking of rest in sleep, which almost divides with work itself this lifetime of responsible being. But when we look below the surface, when we remember the time and the place and the circumstances, when we think of the Speaker of the words and of the persons spoken to, we shall perceive that the command - for such it seems to be - Sleep on and take your rest, had a widely different meaning from that which its sound would convey. This was the very night on which Christ was betrayed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
