IT is with hesitation that the following pages are put before the reader―with a real sense of their imperfect and fragmentary character. With their contents many are already familiar from other sources. From these sources it has been my privilege to draw most of what is here presented; and I would be grateful indeed did the perusal of these pages awaken fresh interest in “The Synopsis of the Books of the Bible,” “The Numerical Structure of Scripture,” and “The Numerical Bible.”
I have hopes even that the colloquial and desultory style, with frequent repetition of thoughts, may carry the reader on with less effort than a more studied work, and thus awaken an appetite for truth which, as just stated above, can be found elsewhere.
That God will bless the book to this end, and thus magnify His word more and more in the hearts of His people is my prayer.
