Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from From Samuel to Solomon
Whenever a New Testament truth is found incarnated in an Old Testament biography, the analysis of each Chapter of this will be sure to yield instruction. Four histories - Samuel's and Saul's, David's and Solomon's - cross the highest lines of Israel's splendor as a kingdom. Whoever under stands those men will have attained a knowledge of human nature which will prove valuable to him as a Citizen and a Christian. It is easy to call the contents of this volume lec tures; but the fairer thing to say would be that they have all done their duty in the pulpit just the same as if they had been sermons. I am pleased to detect in them repetitions and reiterations now and then; for it shows a fearless desire to press the expository lessons as they came from the four teachers whose lives were so individual and yet in many respects so alike. More and more am I convinced, as years move on, that the true secret of a pastor's influence and success is found in the one counsel: Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long-suffering and doc trine.
