Excerpt from Sketch of the History of Israel and Judah The following Sketch first appeared as the article Isbael in the Encydopoedia Britannica in 1881. It was afterwards reprinted in 1885, as an appendix to the English translation of my Prolegomena. That volnme is now out of print, and there were difficulties in the way of an immediate reissue of the Prolegomena which dp not apply to a simple reprint of the historical sketch. Noris there any intrinsic reason why the two should not be separated; the latter therefore now appears, for the third time, as an independent booklet.

Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality.

Excerpt from The Kings of Israel and Judah The Books of Kings and Chronicles form the main stjurce for the History of the Kings of Israel and Judah. They require, however, to be supplemented, especially for the later kings, by a careful study of the Prophetical Scriptures, particularly of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Hosea, Amos, Micah, Habakkuk and Zephaniah. Local colouring, the life and manners of the time, and the feelings of those contemporary with the events described, are derivable almost wholly from this latter source, which furnishes them often in tolerable abundance. The "Antiquities" of Josephus supply less material than might have been expected, and the character of all additional material derived from this quarter requires to be weighed in the scales of a careful and sober criticism. Considerable light is thrown on the history of some of the kings by contemporary notices contained in the monuments of Egypt and Assyria. It has been the endeavour of the writer, so far as the limits of space allowed, to make full use of all these various sources of information. His labours have been much lightened by the excellent work done by many of his predecessors in the field of Sacred History, as especially by the writers of the articles on the several kings in Dr. Smith's "Dictionary of the Bible," Kitto's "Biblical Cyclopaedia," Winer's "Realworterbuch," and Ersch and Gruber's "Cyclopadie."

Excerpt from The Story of Israel and Judah: From the Call of Abraham to the Death of Nehemiah It ought assuredly to be possible so to teach the historical parts of the Old Testament to those who have reached the age of fifteen or sixteen that, when they enter into manhood, they may have nothing to unlearn on the ground of either science or history. Such are the words of Professor Driver in his introduction to the Book of Genesis (westminster Commentaries, p. Lxvi; note: the italics are his). This is the ideal, admittedly difficult of attainment, which I have set before myself in writing this book. It is a book intended for use with upper forms only and in conjunction with the Bible. In my opinion, no amount of commentary or explanation can take the place of a sound knowledge of the Biblical text, so far as scripture lessons in school are concerned. Upon this text the scripture teaching in lower forms is usually and rightly based. There are now excellent series of extracts from the Old Testament published, which give the nar rative in continuous form, while omitting matter with which junior students are not concerned. In teaching upper forms, the main principles to be kept in view should be, that there is no hard and fast line dividing sacred from profane history, and that the original records both of Biblical and secular history can be subjected to similar methods of criticism.

Excerpt from The Kings and Prophets of Israel and Judah: From the Division of the Kingdom to the Babylonian Exile The three centuries and a half, which began with the division of the Hebrew empire and extended to the Babylonian exile, were in many ways the most important period in Israel's history. It was during this epoch that the Israelites ceased to be a provincial people, limited in their out look to the narrow horizon of Palestine. Events over which they had little control brought them into close contact with the great world powers of the day, thereby vastly broadening their faith, as well as their vision of history and of their relation to the human race. It was a period marked by supreme political, social and religious crises, which funda mentally transformed Israel's religion and institutions. These crises called forth the great ethical prophets of the eighth and seventh centuries B.o.; and their work and teachings made Israel's experience during these trying years one of the most significant chapters in human history.

Steering a middle course between those who argue that a history of Israel can no longer be written because the sources that we have prove inadequate, and what now seems to be the extreme conservatism of the old classic, John Bright's History of Israel, this book presents all the problems and where they cannot be resolved, provides the evidence and leaves the reader with the current situation.

Excerpt from The Decline and Fall of the Kingdom of Judah The time has not come, however, to revise these results. I have, therefore, provisionally adopted the generally accepted statements. Professor Eerdmans' relative conservatism in textual matters makes it unwise to follow him implicitly, suggestive as his recent work on the composition of Genesis may be. I am, however, glad of his support in the view that the narrators of Genesis, generally speaking, believed in more than one god. If he has ignored my own work, that is no reason why I should ignore or depreciate his. Part II. contains a study of the Israelite law-books, with the exception of the Priestly Code, which, though it certainly contains a kernel of older date, is in its present form naturally considered to be post-exilic. Both here and elsewhere the point of view is that set forth in Traditions and Beliefs and in the Introduction, which, while recognising both direct and indirect Babylonian influence on Palestine, finds in the extant evidence a larger amount of reference to N. Arabian influence, both political and religious. In conclusion, I may draw attention to a passage in the Introduction relative to the one-sided character of the literary monuments of the pre-exilic period, which helps to account for the large number of problems which are very plausibly solved by the N. Arabian theory. I think that this suggestion makes for peace. The present condition of the study of the Old Testament is far from satisfactory; there is still a sad amount of partisanship, though the points at issue have changed.

Excerpt from Heroes of Israel This volume was written at the suggestion of the late Mr. Thomas Nelson, among whose latest projects the issue of a series of Bible biographies, illustrated from the historical and topographical materials which modern research has supplied, had a prominent place. The field has already been traversed in some degree by the present writer in his "Manual of Bible History in Connection with the General History of the World." But the limits of that book afforded little opportunity of doing what has been attempted here - to draw full-size portraits of some of the great men of the Bible, and to place them as living characters before the eye of the reader. The author is deeply sensible that while it is possible to throw no little light from modern sources on the Scripture narrative, it will ever retain, in its brevity, simplicity, and graphic power, that incomparable character which in all ages has been felt to be so emphatic an evidence of the divinity of its origin.

Excerpt from History of Judah and Israel: From the Birth of Solomon to the Reign of Ahab From the political we turn to the religious aspect of this history. It was indeed true, that the empire of the world was to be connected with the Davidic kingdom (ps. Ii.) - but not in the sense Of founding a great military monarchy, nor in that of attaining universal intel lectual supremacy, least of all, by conformity to the ways and practices of heathen worship, magic, and theurgy. The exaltation of Zion above the hills, and the flowing of all nations unto it, was to be brought about by the going forth Of the Law out of Zion, and of the Word of Jehovah from Jerusalem (15. Ii. 2, This - to confine ourselves to the present period of our history - had been distinctly implied in the great promise to David (2 Sam. Vii.) it was first typically realised in the choice of Jerusalem as the City of God (ps. Xlvi. Xlviii. And further presented in its aspect of peace, prosperity, and happiness in the reign of Solomon (ps. Lxxii.) to which the prophets ever afterwards pointed as the emblem of the higher blessings in the Kingdom of God (mic. Iv. 4; Zech. Iii. 10, comp. With I Kings iv. But the great work Of that reign, alike in its national and typical importance, was the building of the Temple at Jerusalem. This also has been fully described in the following pages. But already other elements were at work. The introduction of heathen worship commenced with the decline of Solomon's spirituallife. After his death, the apostasy from God attained fearful pro portions, partially and temporarily in Judah, but permanently in Israel. In the latter, from the commencement Of its separate national existence under Jeroboam, the God-chosen Sanctuary at Jerusalem, and the God-appointed priesthood were discarded; the worship of Jehovah transformed; and by its side spurious rites and heathen idolatry introduced, till, under the reign of Ahab, the religion of Baal became that of the State. This marks the high point Of apostasy in Israel. The evolving of principles of con trariety to the Divine Covenant slowly but surely led up to the final destruction of the Jewish Commonwealth. But, side by side with it, God in great mercy placed an agency, the origin, character, and Object of which have already been indicated in a previous Volume. The Prophetic Order may be regarded as an extraordinary agency, by the side of the ordinary economy of the Old Testament; and as intended, on the one hand, to com plement its provisions, and, on the other, to supplement them, either in times of religious declension, or when, as in Israel, the people were withdrawn from their influences. Hence the great ex tension Of the Prophetic Order. In such periods, and especially in the kingdom of the ten tribes. But when, during the reign Of Ahab, the religion Of Jehovah was, so to speak, repudiated, and the worship of Baal and Astarte substituted in its place, something more than even the ordinary exercise of the Prophetic Office was required. For the prophet was no longer acknowledged, and the authority of the God, Whose Messenger he was, disowned. Both these had therefore to be vindicated, before the prophetic agency could serve its purpose. This was achieved through What must be regarded, not so much as a new phase, but as a further development of the agency already at work. We mark this chiefly in the ministry of Elljah and Elisha, which was contemporary with the first Open manifestation of Israel's national apostasy.
