P R E F A C E.

I have been repeatedly asked to publish a book of my Bible Readings, and last I am encouraged to do so, by the many kind words which I have received from all parts of the world, especially form missionaries, who are isolated from the stimulus of Christian fellowship, and who have been helped by what I have previously written.

To those workers for, and with Christ, who have asked me to print some of my Bible Reading, and those who have been helped in the past, I gladly dedicate this volume-praying that the odour of God’s precious Word found in these studies may fill the house of the being of His servants to their help and happiness, and thus rise as a sweet savour to our Lord.

It will be noted that I have not followed any method of uniformity in the Bible Readings. Some are mere outlines. Others are worked out.
