Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sermon on the Life and Character of Abraham Lincoln: Preached at Monson, at the United Service of the Congregational and Methodist Churches, on the Occasion of the National Fast, June 1, 1865 Samuel iii.34: As a man falleth before wicked men, so fellest thou. And all the people wept again over him. The person referred to in the text, was Abner, a leader of Israel who perished by the hand of an assassin, and for whose death, the whole land was filled with mourning. His murder was the result of the bitter controversies of the time, which had divided into hostile sections, a people having a common history, a common religion, and common dangers. A long civil war existed between the house of David and the house of Saul - but David waxed stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul weaker and weaker, until the North and the South of the land of Palestine, ended their mutual strifes, by the election of David as the ruler of the whole people. Abner was chiefly influential in translating the kingdom from the house of Saul and setting up the throne of David over all the land. But he had barely accomplished his great work of union and conciliation, when he was struck dead without a moment´s warning - and the joy of the nation, at the prospect of permanent peace, was turned to universal grief.
