Présentation de l'éditeur

Bible is lost by an exclusive textual preaching and by fragmentary reading in verses or chapters. We gain greatly by comprehensive views of one of its books or of one of its lives, and by reading therein the lessons for all time for which the record has been pre served. In the study of the inspired Word the microscope alone should not be used ;the telescope brings to light beautiful and surprising discoveries. A mong the human lives of the Bible, that of Elijah stands on a peculiar plane.
