A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The author of this little treatise onS cripture Geography has prepared it under the impression that a work of the kind was wanted, and, if well executed, would be useful. He is not acquainted with any treatise on the subject, that is at once concise, comprehensive, and well adapted to elementary instruction. Some knowledge of the countries and places, in which the memorable transactions recorded in theB ible took place, cannot but be regarded as important; as it affords assistance in understanding theS criptures, and in enabling one to read them with satisfaction and advantage ;and the facts recorded are more firmly impressed on the mind by connecting them with the places where they occurred :yet this is a branch of learning which has been much neglected; and nothing is more common than to meet with well educated persons, who have little acquaintance with the subject. As it is not the design of theS criptures to instruct us in geography, matters of this sort are mentioned only incidentally ;it therefore happens, on account of the remoteness of the time, and the want of other sources of information equally ancient, that there are many points relating to the geography of theB ible, which are attended with great uncertainty. It has been the design of the author of this treatise to follow the best guides, and to notice such matters as are most important; but he has avoided all discussion of doubtful topics. The Outlines, and the accompanying A tlas, are designed to be used throughout in connection. The plan on which the work has been formed will be found simple ;easy both to the instructor and pupil; and well adapted, it is hoped, to elementary instruction in schools and families. The subject is treated,in a great measure, chronologically ;the circumstances by which many of the places have been rendered memorable are briefly mentioned ;and the nature of the work
