Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Comfortable Faith "Comfort ye, Comfort ye My people, saith your God." - Isaiah 40: 1. This is one of the really great chapters of the Bible. For sublimity of thought, for richness of imagination, it is conceded to be one of the first things in Old Testament literature. Possibly no other single chapter has exerted so wide and weighty an influence on the world´s leaders. Handel begins his Messiah with it, "Comfort ye, Comfort ye My people." Luther pored over it in the fortress of Salzburg; John Brown read it in the prison at Harper´s Ferry; Oliver Cromwell went to it for strength in time of storm; Daniel Webster read it again and again when he was crushed and broken in spirit; Wordsworth and Carlyle both refer to its influence on their style; while Tennyson confessed it to be one of the five great classics in the Old Testament record. Surely such a chapter, and with such a list of tributes, is entitled to our most earnest study. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
