A Childs Guide To The Bible 1911 PDF Download

Excerpt from A Child's Guide to the Bible One reason why the Bible books are bound together is that some of them are so very small. Thus in the middle of the Bible are sixteen books of sermons, beginning with Isaiah; and sometimes there is only one sermon in the book; and some of these sermons are so short that they may easily be read aloud, from beginning to end, in less than ten minutes. And near the end of the Bible are twenty-one books of letters, beginning with R0 mans; a few of these are long, but others are hardly more than notes, and do not fill the whole of a single printed page. These little writings, by themselves, might be lost. They are bound up with the others for safe keeping. When we say, then, that there are sixty-seven books of the Bible, we do not mean that they are all good-sized books, such as we have on our shelves, for that would make a volume quite too big. There are sixty-seven different pieces, long and short, each with its own writer, and its own subject and its own title.
