Excerpt from Devotional Hours With the Bible: Readings in the Synoptic Gospels on the Life of ChristThere are two methods of studying the Bible. One is, verse by verse, giving close thought to every word, even looking into etymology and grammatical construction, so that the exact sense of the text may be learned Such study is im portant. Many rich Shades of meaning are often revealed by intelligent and scholarly exegesis. Commentaries that take us over the Bible in this microscopical way are valuable. We need every particle of light on the Scriptures we can get.Then another way of studying the Bible is in order to get from it practical lessons for our own daily common life. What does the passage teach us? What divine instruction have we in it for ourselves? It is the latter purpose that is in mind in this book. It is not a commentary in the usual sense.


It is not an exegetical study of the Scriptures that is proposed. NO textual criticism is given. There is no discussion of questions of dates, of localities, of authorships, or archaeological researches. Its single aim is to suggest some of the spiritual and practical les sons which may be gathered from great passages.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
