Excerpt from A Class-Book of Old Testament History Seeing that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her, and he did eat. Thus the fell counsels of the Tempter were accomplished. Through want of faith in God's word, through a longing for independence, through a vain desire to become gods unto themselves, our first parents were beguiled into sin, and when their eyes were opened, instead of greater happiness they now experienced the strange and hither to unknown consciousness of shame, and degradation, and unmeetness for God's presence (gen.

Excerpt from A Manual of Lessons in Old Testament History: For Academic Grades The lessons here submitted for your consideration, and for your use if you find them adapted to your needs, are the lessons I have been using for a number of years in my own work. The chief difficulty in the study and teaching of Old Testament his; tory is that there is too much matter for one year's Work; but as one year is all that can possibly be allowed for the subject, we must be con tent, and do our best with the time that is ours. The lessons are therefore long ones. I wish they could be shorter, but know of no other way to cover the subject. They may not seem uni form in length; and they are not, if one considers chapters and verses only. It has seemed to me necessary to be governed more by subjects than by the amount of words to be read and studied; therefore while the average assignment is three chapters, there are some lessons that require more, and some fewer.

Excerpt from Outlines of Old Testament History: Progressive Grade, With Written-Answer Questions for the Older Classes This Outline of Old Testament History has been prepared in the hope that it may be found useful in giving a clear conception of the progress of events connected with the history of the chosen people. One of the most important questions in the preparation of such an outline is whether the lessons shall be extended over two or more years, or be condensed into a single year. At first thought the larger number of lessons may seem preferable because they give time for a more careful study of details. But in outline study it is of the first importance not to dwell on details, for otherwise the outlines are lost in a maze of subordinate incidents. Such has been the experience of multitudes in the study of the Old Testament. The principal thing to be sought in such study is a comprehensive survey of the whole history, and the smaller the number of lessons in which this can be done the better. The details may be studied later as occasion arises. A careful analysis of Old Testament history shows that it can readily be treated in about forty topics, each repte senting a distinct forward step in the history. We regard it of primary importance that each of these topics or steps be covered by a single lesson and no more, so that the topic and its significance shall stand out clearly before the mind. These outlines have been arranged in accordance with this principle. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Old Testament History The present treatment of Old Testament history aims to conform to the object of the series as handbooks to Bible study. The Bible itself is, accordingly, the main primary source. In each Section the biblical text, as indicated in the margin, is the basis Of the discussion, and requires the first attention of the student. Where the biblical material is most abundant the history is consequently the fullest. But it has become increasingly evident that the material of the Bible is not chronologically arranged, but that accounts centuries apart in their origin and point of view are Often found side by Side or interwoven with each other. The recognition of this fact is the result of the historical and scientific method of the Bible study of our day. It will account for the order and method here adopted. If the reason for the procedure is not always fully stated, it is due to the design of the series not to deal SO much with the process as with the results achieved. Only where Silence would leave the biblical situation obscure was it deemed necessary to enter into the discussion of critical questions, and then only in the briefest way possible. The logical movement of Old Testament history which is the outcome of the critical use of the biblical material proves ultimately its strongest justification.

Excerpt from First Lessons in the Old Testament: Adapted for Use in the Day-School, the Sabbath-School, and the Family The growing demand for instruction in Bible history, and the lack of suitable text-books on this subject have led. To the preparation of the lessons contained in this little volume. These lessons are designed not only to present the facts of sacred history, but also to impart a knowledge of the principles of morality found' in God's word, thus giving to the child that moral training which is so often neglected. This work is the first of a series of three grades now in preparation, each grade consisting of two books, one covering the Old and the other the New Testament history. Such notes, suggestions, and references as will be of benefit to the teacher are given on each lesson. These notes are found only in the Teachers' Edition.

Excerpt from A Brief Biblical History: Old Testament Religious education is one of the many problems of our day, and nowhere is the difficulty more acute than in the case of the Old Testament. Under no circumstances is it an easy task to arrange the different component parts of a volume so varied in such a manner as to give a young student a clear idea of its meaning and purpose. Isolated stories may arouse interest, but their connexion with the rest is not very obvious. Here and there a psalm or prophecy may touch the heart; but it stands as a thing apart, without anything to account for its origin. Not unfrequently, moreover, in the course of instruction in a particular book we meet with narratives apparently unedifying, or sentiments which are certainly not in accord with the highest views today. There is the further difficulty of answering questions like Is such an account true? Is this or that statement in accordance with what we are taught in a lesson on science or geography? Do people really believe this? For youth is a season of credulous scepticism. A child will accept much on authority, and at the same time is ready with questions going to the Very root of a matter. He also possesses an instinctive power of detecting that the teacher is himself doubtful as to the facts on which he is insisting.
