Excerpt from The Giant Judge: Or the Story of Samson, the Hebrew HerculesI am well aware that some do not like the subject I have chosen they would prefer Joseph or Daniel as a hero. Others are ready to pronounce the effort as useless - and some consider it as an idle at tempt to collect evidence on a subject that does not admit of proof, and others will charge me with maintaining most uncritical, ignorant, unphilos0phical, baseless assumptions in regard to the histories of the Bible, and the literal interpretation of the scriptures. But as Keil in his preface to Joshua expresses it, I am persuaded: The great want of the church, at the present day, is a clear comprehension of the meaning of the Old Testament, in its fullness and purity, in order that the God of Israel may again be universally recognized as the eternal God, whose faithfulness is unchangeable, the one living and true God, who per formed all that he did to Israel for our instruction and salvation, having chosen Abraham and his seed to be his people, to preserve his revela tions, that from him the whole world might receive salvation, and in him all the families of the earth be blessed.'About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
