Excerpt from Questions on the Old Testament With Notes: Designed for Sabbath Schools and Families
A want has long been felt to exist among us, of a brief and convenient text-book for the study of the Old Testament, - a study which, while it presents numberless attractions, has yet difficulties peculiar to itself. To meet, in some measure, this want, and to guide the young, both in Sunday schools and families, to a more accurate knowledge of this portion of the sacred volume, the present manual is offered.
The necessary limits of such a work leave no room for extended commentary on the text, and few beside explanatory notes have been inserted. The moral and religious lessons to be drawn from almost every chapter of Holy Writ have been left to the parent or teacher, whose dearest office lies in this direction, and whose place could be supplied by no printed page; but it is hoped that the brief explanations and critical remarks, none of which have been made without careful investigation of the highest authorities, will aid both teacher and student in this interesting field of labor.
