Excerpt from A Handbook of Biblical Difficulties: Or, Reasonable Solutions of Perplexing Things in Sacred ScriptureNothing is suggested that is unfamiliar to advanced students of God's Word. But there has been much gain by the Bible Revision, and Bible criticism, of recent years, which ought to become the common knowledge of the people. This Handbook' may aid in making the advanced knowledge of the college the possession even of the Sunday-school class. And the Sacred Book is best honoured by the fullest and best knowledge of its contents, and of its original associations.Footnotes and references to learned authors have been avoided. The books referred to, in the paragraphs, are for the most part such as may be found in every good library, and readers who desire to study any subject further will easily discover the works that will give them efficient help.Quotations are made from other authors with a threefold object in view (1) To support the explanation that is suggested by due authorities. (2) To suggest other explanations than that which seems most acceptable to the writer of the paragraph. And (3) to relieve the sense of freshness and strangeness which may be caused by some of the solutions that are offered. There are many cases in which the explanation will occasion surprise, and even resistance. In such cases the support of some honoured and trusted name will ensure that the suggestions made are, at least, calmly and candidly considered.May our readers find, in the study of this Handbook, ' what we have found in the preparation of it, an ever-enlarging knowledge of, and an ever-deepening reverence for, that Word which, 'inspired of God, is also profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction which is in righteousness that the man of God may be complete, furnished completely unto every good work.'About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
