Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Bible and How to Read It: Genesis I. IX The place assigned to the Bible in the education of our race is illustrated by its beginning. If we are to understand our destiny; if we are to hear with distinctness the call of duty; and if our whole being is to be so strung that the call of duty shall awake a response of ardent resolve, then we must know clearly whence we come, and what we are. We must understand also the source and the end of those things which are around us, and with which we have to do. And here, in these first words of the Scripture, we have a clear, comprehensive outlook into that past which science can never wholly reveal. We see time spring from the bosom of eternity. We are made spectators of the creation of the heavens and of the earth. We behold our world in its primeval wasteness and emptiness. We mark how the glories of the universe are added one after another by the beneficent hand of the Creator; how the earth is furnished, and how one form of life succeeds another, till man is created in the image of God to crown the work.
