Overview

Excerpt from Progressive Studies in the Bible The present volume is an effort to meet the demand for a text book of the Bible that will make the study of it equal to any other branch in point of culture, and at the same time impart such knowledge of the Hebrew nation, its place in hisory, God's purpose in it and his method of dealing with it, as every liberally educated person ought to know. These studies were originally given as lectures to college classes and have assumed their present form largely under the inspiration of the classroom. It has been difficult to confine ourselves strictly to our original pur pose, to present one fundamental phase of biblical truth. We think by adhering to this purpose confusion is avoided and a foundation laid for intelligent personal studyu Much is left for the teacher in the way of comment and applica tion, and many opportunities afforded to explain the ap plication of the principles of the Hebrew government to modern society. We have made no effort to discuss in spiration, authorship, etc. Those who wish to follow this line of study can find many books on it. We have taken the Bible as it is and endeavored to learn its contents, its purpose and spirit. Although prepared primarily for col lege students in regular class work, the book may be used in Normal classes, under the direction of the pastor, or in special classes in Sabbath Schools.
