Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Select Notes on the International Sabbath School Lessons: For 1879; Explanatory, Illustrative, and Practical; With Maps and Chronological Chart, Table of Signification, and Pronunciation of Proper Names A Late writer on art, in speaking of originality, says that "it consists in the power of combining, transfusing, digesting, assimilating, the material that comes into our possession from any source whatever." Such is the only originality claimed in this volume; and though more in this than in any previous volume is expressed in our own words, where we did not find others condensed exactly to our needs, yet chiefly we have confined ourselves to the best expressions from a wide range of authors, given over their own names. And this for several reasons: first, because no one author can be best and most perfect at all times and on all subjects; secondly, in order that each statement of fact or opinion might have the authority and weight which belongs to its author; and, lastly, we would point out to the readers the whole hive whence these few drops of honey were brought. We have now reached the last year of the seven-years´ course prescribed by the International Committee. In order that they might complete the survey of the Bible within the seven years, they have selected the lessons for 1879 from twenty-five books of the Bible, chiefly the prophets and epistles: so that more than ever some special commentary is needed on the lessons. We have earnestly endeavored to make this volume more perfect than its predecessors. The Setting of the lessons has been more carefully brought out: the Dates, and connections with other events; the Places where the books were written and the transactions took place; the Contemporary History; the Place of prophets and epistles in The Historical Books of the Bible; some account of the books and their authors; and every thing that can give a clearer understanding of the Word and its truths. By these things, by maps, tables of chronology, and the pronunciation and meaning of Bible names, by careful introductions, by illustrations drawn from history, science, biography, and travels, it is hoped to secure the objects of this work, - (1) to learn the exact meaning of God´s word; (2) to aid in making it vivid and impressive by facts and illustrations; and (3, and chief), to bring its truths to bear on the heart and life.
