Description

"The effect of these changes back to the original forms under which the sacred writings first appeared will be, for the vast majority of readers, a surprise and delight; they will feel as if they had come upon new spiritual and intellectual treasures, and they will appreciate for the first time how much the Bible has suffered from the hands of those who have treated it without reference to its literary quality. In view of the significance and possible results of Professor Moulton's undertaking, it is not too much to pronounce it one of the most important spiritual and literary events of the times. It is part of the renaissance of Biblical study; but it may mean, and in our judgment it does mean, the renewal of a fresh and deep impression of the beauty and power of the supreme spiritual writing of the world." -The Outlook, New York "It must be that this natural and rational arrangement of the different styles of literature in the Bible will commend the book itself to people who have hitherto neglected it, and give to those who have read it and studied it with the greatest diligence, new satisfaction and delight." -John, H. Vincent, Chancellor of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle "Well selected and excellently edited…And no mere literature so impresses the ordinary mind as the Church Lessons, if well read, especially those for the more important Christian seasons. The Psalms are a constant joy, and the grand chapters of Isaiah an inalienable possession of the soul….The notes of a judicious editor show how and why the Christian's Bible, even as literature, surpasses all other literatures under the sun…In the notes, the parallelism of Hebrew poetry is explained, and attention called to the characteristic beauties of both its noble matter and its high-wrought and elaborate form. The editor is to be commended for having furnished a series of volumes helpful to all Bible readers, especially the young." -The Church Eclectic: A Monthly Magazine of Church Literature and ..., Volume 25, 1897 "Unquestionably here is a task worth carrying out; and it is to be said at once that Dr. Moulton has carried it out with great skill and helpfulness. Both the introduction and the notes are distinct contributions to the better understanding and higher appreciation of the literary character, features, and beauties of the Biblical books treated." -Presbyterian and Reformed Review
