Excerpt from A Book of Old Testament Lessons for Public Reading in Churches, Vol. 1: A Lectionary, Edited With Introduction and Notes; TextAs the years went forward I found myself more and more lamenting the neglect of the Old Testa ment, and as far as my feeble voice could reach urging young men entering the ministry to find some way, each for himself, to better the condition, to make the prophets, at least, vocal once more. Perhaps it helped. I do not know. But I kept turning it over in my mind seeking some way of encouragement and help until in 1912 I began to make a little Old Testament lectionary, and only now is it finished and very humbly and earnestly and imploringly Offered for any use little or much that few or many may find for it.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
