Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sermon of the Rev. S. J. McPherson, D. D: To the First Graduating Class of the Chicago Manual Training School; Delivered in the Second Presbyterian Church, Sabbath Evening, June 20, 1886; With Appendices There is said to be a twofold tradition that this verse and the one preceding were the original prayer offered by Moses as a blessing upon the completed tabernacle and its ornaments, and that subsequently he employed them as the usual formula of benediction upon any finished work or career. They certainly furnish a fitting doxology to pronounce upon consummated enterprises. They are specially suited to be the motto and the ideal of both the patrons and the graduates of our fine Manual Training School, in whose first Commencement we have the privilege of bearing an honorable part to-night. The emphasis which they put upon the work of the hands is characteristic of the whole Bible, which habitually speaks of the hand as the representative and instrument of all intelligent activity. The hand of God stands in Scripture for his sovereignty and his providence, his mercy and grace, his tireless omnipotence and his resistless efficiency. Mans hand is the scriptural symbol of his cleansing and his consecration, his kindness and friendship, his daily industry and his acquired skill. This large place given to hand-culture in Holy Writ, shows us that mans manual training is a novelty not in its conception, but in its more thorough modern organization, in its multiplying tools and appliances, and in its increasing applications to the uses and conveniences of human life.
