A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The value of theS criptures, aud the duty of perusing them, appear from many considerations. We may estimate the character and tendency of divine revelation, by contrasting the condition of countries where its true light shineth, with that of other countries to which its beams have not extended. The heathen world is large enough sui-ely for experimental proof. In many of its territories the richest blessings of sun and soil are enjoyed in abundance, and there, external nature presents itself in its stateliest and loveliest forms; but where are the beauties of holiness, where the fruits and flowere of moral culture? Or, if these are disparaged in comparison with intellectual stature and idolized genius, where are the distinguished philosophers and orators, historians aud poets of pagan communities? A mid numberless diversities of condition, they seem to have only this in common to explain their wretchedness, that they want those oracles of God which have been committed unto us; and the conclusions appear fairly deducible, that it is in the absence of theS criptures the people are there destroyed for lack of knowledge that spiritual ignorance, in addition to its proper maladies, has there entailed mental and civil prostration and that scoifers in our native land owe to the emancipating influence of God sword that very freedom of thinking which, with ungi-ateful and impious hand, they wield for the overthrow of its doctrines and institutions. The cases of Greece andR ome, so famous in the annals of history for literary attainments and heroic exploits, may be urged as evidence to the contrary.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
