Présentation de l'éditeur

Kingdom of God in theO ld Testament, men whose lives form epochs in the opening up of His ways to His people. Moses is immeasurably the grandest of these. Probably the next to him is Samuel; and just as we understandS amuel, his character, his position, his oflS ces, and his work, or fail to understand him, we shall succeed in understanding, or shall fail to understand, very much of Jehovah sdealings with I srael.
