IN THE DAYS OF THE PROPHET ISAIAH BY A. RENDLE SHORT / The Historic Faith in the Light of To-day By B. COLGRAVE, M.A. and A. RENDLE SHORT, M.D.
The Historic Faith in the Light of To-day By B. COLGRAVE, M.A. and A. RENDLE SHORT, M.D. Facts and arguments concerning the fundamentals of the Christian Faith for those of modern education. "Those for whom it is intended will find it a storehouse of interesting facts on a multitude of matters that bear directly or indirectly upon belief in Christianity."
THE Book of the Prophet Isaiah has been a treasure-house of joys to the Biblical scholar, but many parts of it are not very intelligible to the general reader, because he does not know their historical setting, and cannot always understand the language employed. The method here followed is to set forth in perhaps a somewhat picturesque fashion what a godly contemporary of Isaiah would probably have seen,
heard and thought. There is no likelihood that we shall understand the prophecy, unless we have some idea what it meant to those who heard it.
