+      This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of engravings
+      illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from the pencil of
+      the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore. The original work, from
+      which this collection has been made, met with an immediate and warm
+      recognition and acceptance among those whose means admitted of its
+      purchase, and its popularity has in no wise diminished since its first
+      publication, but has even extended to those who could only enjoy it
+      casually, or in fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety,
+      was far too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+      admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this class, and
+      to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs upon sacred subjects
+      for art-loving Biblical students generally, this work was projected and
+      has been carried forward. The aim has been to introduce subjects of
+      general interest&mdash;that is, those relating to the most prominent
+      events and personages of Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all
+      readers; the plates being chosen with special reference to the known taste
+      of the American people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+      narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the design.
+      Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the work, while in
+      progress, was under the pains-taking and careful scrutiny of artists and
+      scholars not directly interested in the undertaking, but still having a
+      generous solicitude for its success. It is hoped, therefore, that its
+      general plan and execution will render it acceptable both to the
+      appreciative and friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who
+      would wish to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+      illustrations upon sacred themes.

+    <h2>
+      GUSTAVE DORE.
+    </h2>
+    <p>
+      <br />
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and variously
+      gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age when most men have
+      scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and are still under the direction
+      and discipline of their masters and the schools, he had won a brilliant
+      reputation, and readers and scholars everywhere were gazing on his work
+      with ever-increasing wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious
+      gifts. He has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+      unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before unsuspected.
+      He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius, explored and embellished
+      fields hitherto lying waste, and opened new and shining paths and vistas
+      where none before had trod. To the works of the great he has added the
+      lustre of his genius, bringing their beauties into clearer view and
+      warming them to a fuller life.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      His delineations of character, in the different phases of life, from the
+      horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic, attest the versatility
+      of his powers; and, whatever faults may be found by critics, the public
+      will heartily render their quota of admiration to his magic touch, his
+      rich and facile rendering of almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet
+      dormant, in the human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his
+      various beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+      treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with fresh
+      gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent traits we will
+      refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of Nature.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the Vosges
+      doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind. There he wandered,
+      and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass
+      and rich ravine, whose variety of form and detail seems endless to the
+      enchanted eye. He has caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has
+      laid her hand upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold
+      and truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+      scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so patriarchal the
+      giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the' gazer is at once satisfied
+      and entranced. His vistas lie slumbering with repose either in shadowy
+      glade or fell ravine, either with glint of lake or the glad, long course
+      of some rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+      he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of angry
+      storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or heavens serene and
+      fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art, after the earth has
+      rendered all her gifts.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January 10, 1833. Of
+      his boyhood we have no very particular account. At eleven years of age,
+      however, he essayed his first artistic creation&mdash;a set' of
+      lithographs, published in his native city. The following year found him in
+      Paris, entered as a 7. student at the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual
+      work began in 1848, when his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of
+      Hercules," was given to the public through the medium of an illustrated,
+      journal with which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856
+      were published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+      those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque in
+      the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to fancy;
+      the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles, shipwrecks,
+      turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and terrible aspects.
+      Every incident or suggestion that could possibly make the story more
+      effective, or add to the horror of the scenes was seized upon and
+      portrayed with wonderful power. These at once gave the young designer a
+      great reputation, which was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her in her
+      varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest achievements
+      were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at home in the actual
+      world also, as witness his designs for "Atala," "London&mdash;a
+      Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don Quixote."
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the fact
+      considered that in almost every task he attempted none had ventured before
+      him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly incredible. To enumerate
+      the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some single volumes alone containing
+      hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will give some faint idea of his industry.
+      Besides those already mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton,
+      Rabelais, Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,"
+      Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables," and
+      others still.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don Quixote"&mdash;and
+      glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor involved in their production
+      is surprising; but when the quality of the work is properly estimated,
+      what he accomplished seems prodigious. No particular mention need be made
+      of him as painter or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his
+      work as an illustrator.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful in
+      appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill as a
+      violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed with his
+      pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a musician.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his mother&mdash;married,
+      as he expressed it, to her and his art. His death occurred on January 23,
+      1883.

+      "And the Lord God said, it is not good that the man should be alone; I
+      will make him a helpmeet for him. And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to
+      fall on Adam, and he slept, and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the
+      flesh instead thereof; and the rib which the Lord God had taken from man,
+      made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now
+      bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because
+      she was taken out of man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and
+      mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh."
+      Genesis ii, 18, 21-24.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      In these few words the Scriptures narrate the creation of the first mother
+      of our race. In "Paradise Lost," the poetic genius of Milton, going more
+      into detail, describes how Eve awoke to consciousness, and found herself
+      reposing under a shade of flowers, much wondering what she was and whence
+      she came. Wandering by the margin of a small lake, she sees her own form
+      mirrored in the clear waters, at which she wonders more. But a voice is
+      heard, leading her to him for whom she was made, who lies sleeping under a
+      grateful shade. It is at this point the artist comes to interpret the
+      poet's dream. Amid the varied and luxurious foliage of Eden, in the vague
+      light of the early dawn, Eve is presented, coy and graceful, gazing on her
+      sleeping Lord, while in the background is faintly outlined the mystic form
+      of Him in whose image they were created.

+    </p>
+    <p>

+      greater than I can bear. Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the
+      face of the earth and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a
+      fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that

+      name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac. And
+      Abraham circumcised his son Isaac, being eight days old, as God had
+      commanded him. And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac
+      was born unto him.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear will
+      laugh with me. And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah
+      should have given children suck? for I have born him a son in his old age.
+      And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the
+      same day that Isaac was weaned.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Sarah, saw the son of Hagar, the Egyptian, which she had born unto
+      Abraham, mocking. Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman
+      and her son; for the son of this, bondwoman shall not be heir with my son,
+      even with Isaac.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son. And
+      God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the
+      lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee,
+      hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called. And also of
+      the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of
+      water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child,
+      and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of
+      Beer-sheba.&mdash;Genesis xxi, 1-14.

+      you. And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it upon

+    <p>

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him, Hear us, my

+      bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre, but that
+      thou mayest bury thy dead.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to

+      which he hath, which is in the end of his field; for as much money as it
+      is worth he shall give it me for a possession of a burying-place amongst

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Ephron dwelt among the children of Heth: and Ephron the Hittite
+      answered Abraham in the audience of the children of Heth, even of all that
+      went in at the gate of his city, saying, Nay, my lord, hear me: the field
+      give I thee, and the cave that is therein, I give it thee; in the presence
+      of the sons of my people give I it thee: bury thy dead.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Abraham bowed down himself before the people of the land. And he spake

+      take it of me, and I will bury my dead there.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him, My lord, hearken unto me:
+      the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver: what is that betwixt me
+      and thee? bury therefore thy dead.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron; and Abraham weighed to Ephron the

+      thy pitcher. And she said, Drink, my lord; and she hasted, and let down
+      her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink. And when she had done
+      giving him drink, she said, I will draw water for thy camels also, until

+      These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was
+      feeding the flock with his brethren, and the lad was with the sons of
+      Bilhah and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives; and Joseph brought
+      unto his father their evil report. Now Israel loved Joseph more than all
+      his children, because he was the son of his old age; and he made him a
+      coat of many colors. And when his brethren saw that their father loved him
+      more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably
+      unto him.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated
+      him yet the more. And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream
+      which I have dreamed. For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field,
+      and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves
+      stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf. And his brethren said
+      to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have
+      dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams and for
+      his words.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said,
+      Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and
+      the eleven stars made obeisance to me. And he told it to his father and to
+      his brethren; and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this
+      dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren
+      indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth. And his brethren
+      envied him; but his father observed the saying.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan. And when
+      they saw him afar off, even before he came near unto them, they conspired
+      against him to slay him. And they said one to another, Behold, this
+      dreamer cometh. Come now, therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him
+      into some pit, and we will say, Some evil beast hath devoured him; and we
+      shall see what will become of his dreams. And Reuben heard it, and he
+      delivered him out of their hands; and said, Let us not kill him. And
+      Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood, but cast him into this pit that is
+      in the wilderness, and lay no hand upon him; that he might rid him out of
+      their hands to deliver him to his father again.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they
+      stript Joseph out of his coat, his coat of many colors that was on him;
+      and they took him and cast him into a pit; and the pit was empty, there
+      was no water in it. And they sat down to eat bread; and they lifted up
+      their eyes and looked, and, behold, a company of Ishmaelites came from
+      Gilead with their camels bearing spicery and balm and myrrh, going to
+      carry it down to Egypt. And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit is
+      it if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood? Come, and let us sell
+      him to the Ishmaelites, and let not our hand be upon him, for he is our
+      brother and our flesh. And his brethren were content.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up
+      Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty
+      pieces of silver; and they brought Joseph into Egypt.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of
+      Pharaoh's, and captain of the guard.&mdash;Genesis xxxvii, 2&mdash;12,

+      And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed:
+      and, behold, he stood by the river. And, behold, there came up out of the
+      river seven well favoured kine and fat-fleshed; and they fed in a meadow.
+      And, behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, ill
+      favoured and lean-fleshed; and stood by the other kine upon the brink of
+      the river. And the ill favored and lean-fleshed kine did eat up the seven
+      well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn
+      came up upon one stalk, rank and good. And, behold, seven thin ears and
+      blasted with the east wind sprung up after them. And the seven thin ears
+      devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it
+      was a dream.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled; and he
+      sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men
+      thereof: and Pharaoh told them his dream; but there was none that could
+      interpret them unto Pharaoh.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      [At the suggestion of his chief butler Pharaoh sends for Joseph and
+      relates to him his dreams, which Joseph interprets as follows:]
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed
+      Pharaoh what he is about to do. The seven good kine are seven years; and
+      the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one. And the seven thin
+      and ill favoured kine that came up after them are seven years; and the
+      seven empty ears blasted with the east wind shall be seven years of
+      famine. This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is
+      about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh. Behold, there come seven years of
+      great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall arise after
+      them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the
+      land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land; and the plenty shall
+      not be known in the land by reason of that famine following; for it shall
+      be very grievous. And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice it
+      is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it
+      to pass.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him
+      over the land of Egypt. Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers
+      over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the
+      seven plenteous years. And let them gather all the food of those good
+      years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them
+      keep food in the cities. And that food shall be for store to the land
+      against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt;
+      that the land perish not through the famine.&mdash;Genesis xli. 1-36.

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live?

+      these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there are five
+      years, in which there shall neither be earing nor harvest. And God sent me
+      before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to save your
+      lives by a great deliverance. So now it was not you that sent me hither,
+      but God: and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his
+      house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt. Haste ye, and go up
+      to my father, and say unto him, Thus saith thy son Joseph, God hath made
+      me lord of all Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not: And thou shalt dwell
+      in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy
+      children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and
+      all that thou hast. And there will I nourish thee; for yet there are five
+      years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast,
+      come to poverty. And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother
+      Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaketh unto you. And ye shall tell my
+      father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen; and ye
+      shall haste and bring down my father hither.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept
+      upon his neck. Moreover he kissed all his brethren, and wept upon them:
+      and after that his brethren talked with him.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the fame thereof was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, Joseph's
+      brethren are come and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, say unto thy brethren, This do ye; lade your
+      beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan; and take your father and
+      your households, and come unto me: and I will give you the good of the

+      Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king
+      of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon,
+      gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and
+      encamped before Gibeon, and made war against it.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying,
+      Slack not thy hand from thy servants; come up to us quickly, and save us
+      and help us: for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the mountains
+      are gathered together against us.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      So Joshua ascended from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him,
+      and all the mighty men of valor. And the Lord said unto Joshua, Fear them
+      not: for I have delivered them into thine hand; there shall not a man of
+      them stand before thee. Joshua therefore came unto them suddenly, and went
+      up from Gilgal all night. And the Lord discomfited them before Israel, and
+      slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way
+      that goeth up to Beth-horon, and smote them to Azekah, and unto Makkedah.
+      And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the
+      going down to Beth-horon, that the Lord cast down great stones from heaven
+      upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more which died with
+      hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the
+      Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of
+      Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley
+      of Ajalon. And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people
+      had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book
+      of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hastened not
+      to go down about a whole day. And there was no day like that before it or
+      after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord
+      fought for Israel.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal. But
+      these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave at Makkedah. And it
+      was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found hid in a cave at
+      Makkedah. And Joshua said, Roll great stones upon the mouth of the cave,
+      and set men by it for to keep them: and stay ye not, but pursue after your
+      enemies, and smite the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into

+      through his temples. At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down: At her

+      chariots? Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer to

+      a damsel or two; To Sisera a prey of divers colours, a prey of divers

+      for the necks of them that take the spoil? So let all thine enemies

+      he passed over unto the children of Ammon.
+    </p>
+    <p>

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then she arose with her daughters in law, that she might return from the
+      country of Moab for she had heard in the country of Moab how that the Lord
+      had visited his people in giving them bread. Wherefore she went forth out
+      of the place where she was, and her two daughters in law with her; and
+      they went on the way to return unto the land of Judah.
+    </p>
+    <p>

+    <p>
+      And Naomi said, Turn again, my daughters: why will ye go with me? are
+      there yet any more sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands? Turn
+      again, my daughters, go your way; for I am too old to have a husband. If I

+      should also bear sons; would ye tarry for them till they were grown? would
+      ye stay for them from having husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth
+      me much for your sakes that the hand of the Lord is gone out against me.

+    <p>
+      And Ruth said, Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following

+      husband: and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother, and the land of
+      thy nativity, and art come unto a people which thou knewest not
+      heretofore. The Lord recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee
+      of the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to trust.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then she said, Let me find favor in thy sight, my lord; for that thou hast

+      new cart, and take two milch kine, on which there hath come no yoke, and
+      tie the kine to the cart, and bring their calves home from them: and take
+      the ark of the Lord, and lay it upon the cart; and put the jewels of gold,
+      which ye return him for a trespass offering, in a coffer by the side
+      thereof; and send it away, that it may go. And see, if it goeth up by the
+      way of his own coast to Beth-shemesh, then he hath done us this great
+      evil: but if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that smote
+      us; it was a chance that happened to us.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the men did so; and took two milch kine, and tied them to the cart,
+      and shut up their calves at home: and they laid the ark of the Lord upon
+      the cart, and the coffer with the mice of gold and the images of their
+      emerods. And the kine took the straight way to the way of Beth-shemesh,
+      and went along the highway, lowing as they went, and turned not aside to
+      the right hand or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after
+      them, unto the border of Beth-shemesh. And they of Beth-shemesh were
+      reaping their wheat harvest in the valley: and they lifted up their eyes,
+      and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it. And the cart came into the field
+      of Joshua, a Beth-shemite, and stood there, where there was a great stone:
+      and they clave the wood of the cart, and offered the kine a burnt offering
+      unto the Lord.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the Levites took down the ark of the Lord, and the coffer that was
+      with it, wherein the jewels of gold were, and put them on the great stone:
+      and the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed
+      sacrifices the same day unto the Lord.&mdash;1 Samuel vi, 1-5.

+      the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own

+      gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and
+      to his girdle.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And David went out withersoever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely:

+      all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the

+      And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he said, "They

+      thousands: and what can he have more but the kingdom?" And Saul eyed David
+      from that day and forward.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God came upon

+      And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the
+      Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the
+      wilderness of Engedi. Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all
+      Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild
+      goats. And he came to the sheepcotes by the way, where was a cave; and
+      Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men remained in the
+      sides of the cave.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which the Lord said
+      unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thine hand, that thou
+      mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then David arose, and
+      cut off the skirt of Saul's robe privily. And it came to pass afterward,
+      that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt. And he
+      said unto his men, The Lord forbid that I should do this thing unto my
+      master, the Lord's anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him,
+      seeing he is the anointed of the Lord.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      So David stayed his servants with these words, and suffered them not to
+      rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.
+      David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave, and cried after
+      Saul, saying, My lord the king. And when Saul looked behind him, David
+      stooped with his face to the earth and bowed himself.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And David said to Saul, Wherefore hearest thou men's words, saying,
+      Behold, David seeketh thy hurt? Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how
+      that the Lord had delivered thee to-day into mine hand in the cave: and
+      some bade me kill thee; but mine eye spared thee; and I said, I will not
+      put forth mine hand against my lord; for he is the Lord's anointed.
+      Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand: for
+      in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou
+      and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in mine hand, and I
+      have not sinned against thee; yet thou huntest my soul to take it. The
+      Lord judge between me and thee, and the Lord avenge me of thee: but mine
+      hand shall not be upon thee. As saith the proverb of the ancients,
+      Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but mine hand shall not be upon
+      thee. After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou
+      pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea. The Lord therefore be judge, and
+      judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out
+      of thine hand.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And it came to pass, when David had made an end of speaking these words
+      unto Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul
+      lifted up his voice, and wept. And he said to David, Thou art more
+      righteous than I: for thou hast rewarded me good, whereas I have rewarded
+      thee evil. And thou hast shewed this day how that thou hast dealt well,
+      with me: forasmuch as when the Lord had delivered me into thine hand, thou
+      killedst me not. For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well
+      away? wherefore the Lord reward thee good for that thou hast done unto me
+      this day. And now, behold, I know well that thou shalt surely be king, and
+      that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thine hand. Swear now
+      therefore unto me by the Lord, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after
+      me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father's house.
+    </p>

+      Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from

+      Philistines followed hard upon Saul and upon his sons; and the Philistines
+      slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Melchshua, Saul's sons.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him; and he was

+      and thrust me through, and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for

+      And they put his armour in the house of Ashtaroth and they fastened his

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard of that which the

+      And David numbered the people that were with him, and set captains of

+      of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      But the people answered, Thou shalt not go forth: for if we flee away,

+      So the people went out into the field against Israel: and the battle was

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Absalom met the servants of David. And Absalom rode upon a mule, and
+      the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak, and his head caught

+      the mule that was under him went away.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And a certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold I saw Absalom
+      hanged in an oak.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Joab said unto the man that told him, And, behold, thou sawest him,
+      and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have
+      given thee ten shekels of silver, and a girdle.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the man said unto Joab, Though I should receive a thousand shekels of

+      king's son: for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and
+      Ittai, saying, Beware that none touch the young man Absalom. Otherwise I
+      should have wrought falsehood against mine own life: for there is no
+      matter hid from the king, and thou thyself wouldst have set thyself
+      against me.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with thee. And he took three darts in
+      his hand, and thrust them through the heart of Absalom, while he was yet
+      alive in the midst of the oak. And ten young men that bare Joab's armor
+      compassed about and smote Absalom, and slew him. And Joab blew the
+      trumpet, and the people returned from pursuing after Israel: for Joab held
+      back the people. And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in

+      against my lord the king. And the king said, Is the young man Absalom
+      safe? And Ahimaaz answered, When Joab sent the king's servant, and me thy
+      servant, I saw a great tumult, but I knew not what it was. And the king

+      Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king, and stood
+      before him.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house;
+      and I was delivered of a child with her in the house. And it came to pass
+      the third day after that I was delivered, that this woman was delivered
+      also: and we were together; there was no stranger with us in the house,
+      save we two in the house. And this woman's child died in the night;
+      because she overlaid it. And she arose at midnight, and took my son from
+      beside me, while thine handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid
+      her dead child in my bosom. And when I rose in the morning to give my
+      child suck, behold, it was dead: but when I had considered it in the
+      morning, behold, it was not my son, which I did bear.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the other woman said, Nay; but the living is my son, and the dead is
+      thy son.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And this said, No; but the dead is thy son, and, the living is my son.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Thus they spake before the king.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then said the king, The one saith, This is my son that liveth, and thy son
+      is the dead&mdash;and the other saith, Nay; but thy son is the dead, and
+      my son is the living. And the king said, Bring me a sword.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And they brought a sword before the king.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the
+      one, and half to the other.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then spake the woman whose the living child was unto the king, for her
+      bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the living
+      child, and in no wise slay it.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divide it.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise
+      slay it she is the mother thereof.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had judged; and they

+      And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon; for he had heard
+      that they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram was
+      ever a lover of David.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying, Thou knowest how that David my father
+      could not build a house unto the name of the Lord his God for the wars
+      which were about him on every side, until the Lord put them under the
+      soles of his feet. But now the Lord my God hath given me rest on every
+      side, so that there is neither adversary nor evil occurrent. And, behold:
+      I purpose to build a house unto the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord
+      spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy
+      throne in thy room, he shall build a house unto my name. Now therefore
+      command thou that they hew me cedar trees out of Lebanon; and my servants
+      shall be with thy servants: and unto thee will I give hire for the
+      servants according to all that thou shalt appoint: for thou knowest that
+      there is not among us any that can skill to hew timber like unto the
+      Sidonians.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon, that he
+      rejoiced greatly and said, Blessed be the Lord this day, which hath given
+      unto David a wise son over this great, people. And Hiram sent to Solomon,
+      saying, I have considered the things which thou sentest to me for: and I
+      will do all thy desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber
+      of fir: My servants shall bring them down from Lebanon unto the sea; and I
+      will convey them by sea in floats unto the place that thou shalt appoint
+      me, and will cause them to be discharged there, and thou shalt receive
+      them: and thou shalt accomplish my desire, in giving food for my
+      household.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      So Hiram gave Solomon cedar trees and fir trees according to all his
+      desire.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat for food to his
+      household and twenty measures of pure oil: thus gave Solomon to Hiram year
+      by year.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the Lord gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him: and there was peace
+      between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a league together.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty
+      thousand men. And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by
+      courses: a month they were in Lebanon, and two months at home: and
+      Adoniram was over the levy. And Solomon had three score and ten thousand
+      that bare burdens, and fourscore thousand hewers in the mountains beside
+      the chief of Solomon's officers which were over the work, three thousand
+      and three-hundred, which ruled over the people that wrought in the work.
+      And the king commanded and they brought great stones, costly stones, and
+      hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the' house. And Solomon's builders,

+      Now there dwelt an old prophet in Bethel; and his sons came and told him
+      all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel: the words
+      which he had spoken unto the king, them they told also to their father.
+      And their father said unto them, What way went he? For his sons had seen
+      what way the man of God went, which came, from Judah. And he said unto his
+      sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the, ass: and he rode
+      thereon, and went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an
+      oak: and he said unto him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah?
+      And he said, I am. Then he said unto him, Come home with me, and eat
+      bread. And he, said, I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee:
+      neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place: for it
+      was said to me by the word of the Lord, Thou shalt eat no bread nor drink
+      water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou camest. He said
+      unto him, I am a prophet also as thou art; and an angel spake unto me by
+      the word of the Lord, saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house,
+      that he may eat bread and drink water. But he lied unto him. So he went
+      back with him, and did eat bread in his house, and drank water.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And it came to pass, as they sat at the table, that the word of the Lord
+      came unto the prophet that brought him back: and he cried unto the man of
+      God that came from Judah, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Forasmuch as thou
+      hast disobeyed the mouth of the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment
+      which the Lord thy God commanded thee, but camest back, and hast eaten
+      bread and drunk water in the place, of the which the Lord did say to thee,
+      Eat no bread, and drink no water; thy carcass shall not come unto the
+      sepulchre of thy fathers.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk,
+      that he saddled for him the ass, to wit, for the prophet whom he had
+      brought back.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And when he was gone, a lion met him by the way, and slew him: and his
+      carcass was cast in the way, and the ass stood by it, the lion also stood
+      by the carcass.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And, behold, men passed by, and saw the carcass cast in the way, and the
+      lion standing by the carcass: and they came and told it in the city where
+      the old prophet dwelt. And when the prophet that brought him back from the
+      way heard thereof, he said, It is; the man of God, who was disobedient
+      unto the word of the Lord: therefore the Lord hath delivered him unto the
+      lion, which hath torn him, and slain him, according to the word of the
+      Lord, which he spake unto him. And he spake to his sons, saying, Saddle me
+      the ass. And they saddled him.
+    </p>
+    <p>

+      enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron whether I shall recover of this
+      disease.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      But the angel of the Lord said to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to

+      because there is not a God in Israel, that 'ye go to enquire of Baal-zebub

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And when the messengers turned back unto him, he said unto them, Why are

+      which came up to meet you, and told you these words? And they answered
+      him, He was an hairy man, and girt with a girdle of leather about his
+      loins. And he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went
+      up to him and, behold, he sat on the top of an hill. And he spake unto
+      him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down. And Elijah answered
+      and said to the captain of fifty, If I be a man of God, then let fire come
+      down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire
+      from heaven and consumed him and his fifty.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Again also he sent unto him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And
+      he answered and said unto him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, Come
+      down quickly. And Elijah answered and said unto them, If I be a man of
+      God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And
+      the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he sent again a captain of the third fifty with his fifty. And the
+      third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before
+      Elijah, and besought him, and said unto him, O man of God, I pray thee,
+      let my life, and the life of these fifty thy servants, be precious in thy
+      sight. Behold, there came fire down from heaven, and burnt up the two
+      captains of the former fifties with their fifties: therefore let my life
+      now be precious in thy sight.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the angel of the lord said unto Elijah, Go down with him: be not
+      afraid of him. And he arose, and went down with him unto the king. And he
+      said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Forasmuch as thou hast sent messengers
+      to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, is it not because there is no

+      Isaiah (in Hebrew, Yeshayahu, "Salvation of God"), the earliest and most
+      sublime of the four greater Hebrew prophets, was the son of Amoz (2 Kings
+      xix, 2-20; Isaiah xxxvii, 2), and he uttered his oracles during the reigns
+      of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. The dates of his
+      birth and death are unknown, but he lived from about 760 B.C. to about 700
+      B.C. He was married and had three sons&mdash;the children referred to in
+      Isaiah viii, 18; and he appears to have resided near Jerusalem.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      But by most competent critics it is now held that the last twenty-seven
+      chapters (40-66) of the book bearing his name were the work, not of the
+      prophet, but of a later writer who is commonly styled the second or
+      Deutero-Isaiah. In this portion of the book, Cyrus, who was not born till
+      after 600 B.C., is mentioned by name (Isaiah, xliv, 28; xlv, i); and
+      events which did not take place till a century after the prophet's death
+      are referred to as happening contemporaneously with the writer's account
+      of them. The style of these last twenty-seven chapters, also, is
+      different, and the tone is more elevated and spiritual.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Dore's ideal portrait is more suited to the second or pseudo-Isaiah, than
+      to the real one.

+      Ezekiel, the third of the great Hebrew prophets, was the son of the priest
+      Buzi. (Ezekiel i, 3). He was probably born about 620 or 630 years before
+      Christ, and was consequently a contemporary of Jeremiah and Daniel, to the
+      latter of whom he alludes in chapters xiv, 14-20 and xxviii, 3. When
+      Jerusalem was taken by Nebuchadnezzar in 597 B.C. (2 Kings xxiv, 8-16;
+      Jeremiah xxix, 1-2; Ezekiel xvii, 12; xix, 9), Ezekiel was carried captive
+      along with Jehoiachin, or Jeconiah, king of Judah, and thousands of other
+      Jewish prisoners, to Babylonia, or as he himself calls it, "the land of
+      the Chaldeans." (Ezekiel i, 3). Here, along with his exiled
+      fellow-countrymen, he lived on the banks of the river Chebar (Ezekiel i,
+      1-3), in a house of his own (viii, i). Here also he married, and here,
+      too, his wife, "the desire of his eyes," was taken from him "with a
+      stroke" (Ezekiel xxiv, 15-18). His prophetic career extended over
+      twenty-two years, from about 592 B.C. to about 570 B.C.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The book bearing his name is written in a mystical and symbolical style,
+      and abounds with visions and difficult allegories which indicate on the
+      part of the author the possession of a vivid and sublime imagination.
+      Ezekiel's authorship of it has been questioned. The Talmud attributes it
+      to the Great Synagogue, of which Ezekiel was not a member. It is divisible
+      into two portions. The first (chapters i-xxiv) was written before, and the
+      second (chapters xxv-xlviii) after, the destruction of Jerusalem by
+      Nebuchadnezzar in 586 B.C, the eleventh year of the prophet's captivity
+      (Ezekiel xxvi, 1-2; XI, i). The present text is very imperfect, being
+      corrupted by the interpolation of glosses and other additions by later
+      hands.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Dore's picture represents the prophet uttering his oracles to his
+      fellow-exiles ("them of the captivity"), or to the "elders of Judah," or
+      "elders of Israel," on one of the occasions to which he himself alludes
+      (viii, I; xi, 25; xiv, I; xx, I).

+      The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the Spirit of the
+      Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,
+      and caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very
+      many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he said unto me; Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O
+      Lord God, thou knowest.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye

+      cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live and ye shall

+      and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and
+      say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O
+      breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and
+      they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of
+      Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we
+      are cut off for our parts. Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus
+      saith the Lord God; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and
+      cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of
+      Israel. And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your

+      Respecting the parentage or family of Daniel, the fourth of the great
+      Hebrew prophets, nothing is known, though he appears to have been of noble
+      if not of royal descent (Daniel i, 3). When, in the third year of the
+      reign of King Jehoiakim (607, 606, 605, or 604 B.C.), Jerusalem was first
+      taken by Nebuchadnezzar, Daniel, then a youth, was among the captives
+      carried to Babylon. By the king's orders, he, with others of the Jewish
+      youth, was educated for three years (Daniel i, 3-7). At this time Daniel
+      acquired the power of interpreting dreams (i, 17), which he used with such
+      advantage in expounding a dream of Nebuchadnezzar, that he was made ruler
+      over the whole province of Babylon (Daniel ii, 46-48). Daniel's
+      interpretation of Belshazzar's famous vision having been fulfilled by the
+      capture of Babylon by Darius, that conqueror promoted Daniel to the
+      highest office in the kingdom (Daniel vi, 1-3). The prophet also prospered
+      greatly during the reign of Cyrus (Daniel vi, 28).
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The book of Daniel is written partly in Chaldaic or Syriac (the vernacular
+      Aramaic language spoken by the people of Palestine), and partly in sacred
+      Hebrew. It is manifestly divisible into two portions. The first (chapters
+      i-vi) narrating the details of the prophet's life, and the second
+      (chapters vii-xii) setting forth his apocalyptic visions. Much doubt has
+      been cast upon the authenticity of the work. The evident reference in the
+      eleventh chapter to the conquest of Persia by Alexander the Great, which
+      took place about 330 B.C., or more than two hundred years after Daniel
+      flourished, has led many modern critics to believe that the work was
+      composed in the time of the Maccabees.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Dore's picture appears to be intended to represent the prophet meditating
+      over one of the many visions which came to him.

+      Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews.
+      They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live forever.
+      There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province
+      of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; these men, O king, have not
+      regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which
+      thou hast set up.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach,
+      Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then they brought these men before the king.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach,
+      and Abed-nego? do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which
+      I have set up? Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of
+      the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of
+      music, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if
+      ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning
+      fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the king, O
+      Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be
+      so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery
+      furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be
+      it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship
+      the golden image which thou hast set up.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was
+      changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: therefore he spake, and
+      commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it
+      was wont to be heated. And he commanded the most mighty men that were in
+      his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, and to cast them into
+      the burning fiery furnace.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and
+      their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery
+      furnace. Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent and the
+      furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up
+      Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach,
+      and Abed-nego fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, and
+      spake, and said unto his counselors, Did not we cast three men bound into
+      the midst of the fire? They answered, and said unto the king, True, O
+      king.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of
+      the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the
+      Son of God.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace,
+      and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the
+      most high God, come forth and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and

+      Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house;
+      and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled
+      upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his
+      God, as he did aforetime.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then these men assembled, and found Daniel praying and making supplication
+      before his God. Then they came near, and spake before the king concerning
+      the king's decree Hast thou not signed a decree, that every man that shall
+      ask a petition of any God or man within thirty days, save of thee, O king,
+      shall be cast into the den of lions.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the
+      Medes and Persians, which altereth not.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then answered they and said before the king, That Daniel, which is of the
+      children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the
+      decree that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three times a day.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore displeased with
+      himself, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him: and he laboured till
+      the going down of the sun to deliver him.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then these men assembled unto the king, and said unto the king, Know, O
+      king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, That no decree nor
+      statute which the king establisheth may be changed. Then the king
+      commanded, and they brought Daniel and cast him into the den of lions. Now
+      the king spake and said unto Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest
+      continually, he will deliver thee. And a stone was brought, and laid upon
+      the mouth of the den and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with
+      the signet of his lords; that the purpose might not be changed concerning
+      Daniel.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting: neither
+      were instruments of musick brought before him: and his sleep went from
+      him. Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste unto
+      the den of lions. And when he came to the den, he cried with a lamentable
+      voice unto Daniel: and the king spake and said to Daniel, O Daniel,
+      servant of the living God, is thy God, whom thou servest continually, able
+      to deliver thee from the lions?
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then said Daniel unto the King, O king, live forever. My God hath sent his
+      angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me:
+      forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O
+      king, have I done no hurt.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and commanded that they should
+      take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and
+      no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God. And
+      the king commanded, and they brought those men which had accused Daniel,
+      and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their
+      wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and brake all their bones in

+      Amos, one of the earliest of the Hebrew prophets, flourished during the
+      reign of Uzziah, about 790 B.C., and was consequently a contemporary of
+      Hosea and Joel. In his youth he lived at Tekoa, about six miles south of
+      Bethlehem, in Judaea, and was a herdsman and a gatherer of sycamore fruit
+      (Amos i, i; vii, 14). This occupation he gave up for that of prophet (vii,
+      15), and he came forward to denounce the idolatry then prevalent in Judah,
+      Israel, and the surrounding kingdoms.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The first six chapters of his book contain his denunciations of idolatry;
+      the other three, his symbolical vision of the overthrow of the people of
+      Israel, and a promise of their restoration. The style is remarkable for
+      clearness and strength, and for its picturesque use of images drawn from
+      the rural and pastoral life which the prophet had led in his youth.

+    </p>
+    <p>

+    <p>
+      Now the Babylonians had an idol called Bel: and there were spent upon him
+      every day, twelve great measures of fine flour, and forty sheep, and sixty
+      vessels of wine. The king also worshipped him, and went every day to adore
+      him: but Daniel adored his God. And the king said unto him: Why dost thou
+      not adore Bel? And he answered, and said to him Because I do not worship
+      idols made with hands, but the living God, that created heaven and earth,
+      and hath power over all flesh. And the king said to him: Doth not Bel seem
+      to thee to be a living God? Seest thou not how much he eateth and drinketh
+      every day? Then Daniel smiled and said: O king, be not deceived: for this
+      is but clay within, and brass without, neither hath he eaten at any time.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the king being angry called for his priests, and said to them: If you
+      tell me not, who it is that eateth up these expenses, you shall die. But
+      if you can show that Bel eateth these things, Daniel shall die, because he
+      hath blasphemed against Bel.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Daniel said to the king: Be it done according to thy word.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Now the priests of Bel were seventy besides their wives and little ones
+      and children. And they went with Daniel into the temple of Bel. And the
+      priests of Bel said: Behold, we go out: and do thou, O king, set on the
+      meats, and make ready, the wine, and shut the door fast, and seal it with
+      thy own ring: and when thou comest in the morning, if thou findest not
+      that Bel hath eaten all up, we will suffer death, or else Daniel that hath
+      lied against us.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And they little regarded it, because they had made under the table a
+      secret entrance, and they always came in by it, and consumed those things.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      So it came to pass after they were gone out, the king set the meats before
+      Bel: and Daniel commanded his servants, and they brought ashes, and he
+      sifted them all over the temple before the king: and going forth they shut
+      the door, and having sealed it with the king's ring, they departed.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      But the priests went in by night, according to their custom, with their
+      wives and their children: and they eat and drank all up.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the king rose early in the morning, and Daniel with him. And the king
+      said: Are the seals whole, Daniel? and he answered: They are whole, O
+      king. And as soon as he had opened the door, the king looked upon the
+      table, and cried out with a loud voice Great art thou, O Bel, and there is
+      not any deceit with thee. And Daniel laughed: and he held the king that he
+      should not go in: and he said: Behold the pavement, mark whose footsteps
+      these are. And the king said: I see the footsteps of men, and women, and
+      children. And the king was angry. Then he took the priests, and their
+      wives, and their children: and they showed him the private doors by which
+      they came in, and consumed the things that were on the table.

+    <p>
+      And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven,

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the
+      custom of the feast. And when they had fulfilled the days, as they
+      returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his
+      mother, knew not of it. But they, supposing him to have been in the
+      company, went a day's journey and they sought him among their kinsfolk and
+      acquaintance. And when they found him not, they turned back again to
+      Jerusalem, seeking him.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple,
+      sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them
+      questions. And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and
+      answers.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him,
+      Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have
+      sought thee sorrowing. And he said unto them, How is it that, ye sought
+      me? wist ye not that I must be about my father's business? And they
+      understood not the saying which he spake unto them.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto
+      them but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.

+      Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of
+      God over one sinner that repenteth.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he said, a certain man had two sons: and the younger of them said to
+      his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And
+      he divided unto them his living.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took
+      his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with
+      riotous living. And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in
+      that land; and he began to be in want. And he went and joined himself to a
+      citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
+      And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did
+      eat: and no man gave unto him.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my
+      father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! I will
+      arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned
+      against heaven, and before thee, and am no more worthy to be called thy
+      son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off,
+      his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and
+      kissed him. And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against
+      heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. But
+      the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on
+      him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: And bring hither
+      the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: for this my
+      son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they
+      began to be merry.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the
+      house, he heard music and dancing. And he called one of the servants, and
+      asked what these things meant.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he said unto him, thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the
+      fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and
+      intreated him. And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years
+      do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and
+      yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
+      but as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with
+      harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is
+      thine. It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy
+      brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.&mdash;Luke

+    <p>
+      And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate,

+      cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
+    </p>

+      But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy

+      Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the
+      parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. Now Jacob's well was
+      there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the
+      well: and it was about the sixth hour. There cometh a woman of Samaria to
+      draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a

+      dealings with the Samaritans.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who
+      it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of
+      him, and he would have given thee living water.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the
+      well is deep from whence then hast thou that living water? Art thou
+      greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof
+      himself, and his children, and his cattle?
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall
+      thirst again but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him
+      shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a
+      well of water springing up into everlasting life.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not,
+      neither come hither to draw.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. The woman
+      answered and said, I have no husband.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband: for thou hast
+      had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that
+      saidst thou truly.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. Our
+      fathers worshiped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the
+      place where men ought to worship.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall
+      neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. Ye
+      worship ye know not what: we know what we worship; for salvation is of the
+      Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshipers shall
+      worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to
+      worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him
+      in spirit and in truth.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called
+      Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.

+    <p>
+      Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

+      And upon this came his disciples, and marveled that he talked with the

+      The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and

+      Of Mary "called Magdalene" (Luke viii, 2) but few particulars are recorded
+      in scripture. We first hear of her as having been delivered by Jesus of
+      seven devils (Luke viii, 1-3; Mark xvi, 9). Impelled, no doubt, by
+      gratitude for her deliverance, she becomes one of his followers,
+      accompanying him thenceforward in all his wanderings faithfully till his
+      death. She was the first person to whom he appeared after his resurrection
+      (Mark xvi, 9; John xx, 1, 11-18) The common belief that she was a fallen
+      woman is destitute of the slightest foundation. On the contrary, the
+      references to her as being in the company of such women as Joanna, the
+      wife of Herod's steward, Salome, the mother of James and John, and Mary,
+      the mother of Jesus (Luke viii, 3; Mark xvi, 40; John xix, 25), strongly
+      discountenance such a supposition. The error, which had no other source
+      than ecclesiastical tradition, has been fostered and perpetuated by the
+      stupid blunder of the translators of the authorized version in identifying
+      her with the "sinner" who is described in Luke vii, 37-50 as washing the
+      feet of Jesus with her tears (see head-note to Luke vii).
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The Roman Catholic notion that this "sinner" was Mary the sister of
+      Lazarus is almost equally groundless (see Douay Bible, head-note to
+      Matthew xxvi, and the foot-note references to Luke vii, 37, found in most
+      Catholic Bibles). The only reason for this identification is that the
+      anointing by the "sinner" is described as taking place in the house of a
+      Pharisee named Simon (Luke vii, 36, 39-40 43-44); that the anointing by
+      the unnamed woman, as described in Matthew xxvi, 6-13 and Mark xiv, 3-9,
+      took place in the house of one "Simon the leper," in Bethany; and that
+      Mary, the sister of Lazarus, is described in John xi, 2, and xii, 3-8, as
+      anointing Jesus in a house (apparently that of Lazarus himself) in
+      Bethany, when a conversation ensues altogether different from that
+      recorded in Luke vii, but similar to that related in Matthew xxvi, and
+      Mark xiv, save that the objection to the anointing of Jesus is made, not
+      by "his disciples" (Matthew xxvi, 8), not by "some that had indignation"
+      (Mark xiv, 4), but by "one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son"
+      (John xii, 4). The demeanor of Mary, the sister of Lazarus, is, however,
+      by no means that of a fallen and sinful though penitent woman but that of
+      a pious and good one (see Luke x, 39, 42; John xi, 28-33; xii, 3).
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Dore's illustration, which portrays Mary Magdalene as a heartbroken and
+      despairing sinner, shows that he has fallen into the common error.

+      Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve. And as they did

+    </p>
+    <p>

+      And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it,

+      took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all
+      of it; for this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many
+      for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth
+      of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in
+      my Father's kingdom.

+      The incident depicted in this illustration seems to be as apocryphal as

+      absolutely no warrant in scripture for the notion that Christ fainted
+      under the burden of the cross. The only foundation for such an idea to
+      found in the Bible is contained in the head note to Mark xv, which is
+      quite unwarranted by the text. According to the three synoptic gospels the
+      cross was borne not by Christ, but by Simon, a Cyrenian (see Matthew
+      xxvii, 32; Mark xv, 2 1; Luke xxiii, 26). According to the fourth

+      the place crucifixion (John xix, 16-18). In not one of the four narratives
+      is there so much as a hint that he fainted under the burden.

+      mighty in deed and word before God and all the people: And how the chief
+      priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have
+      crucified him. But we trusted that it had been he which should have

+      said that he was alive. And certain of them which were with us went to the

+    <p>
+      Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the

+      to enter into his glory?
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as

+      And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus,
+      which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs. And they talked
+      together of all these things which had happened. * * *
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the
+      eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, saying, The Lord
+      is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon. And they told what things
+      were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.
+      And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and
+      saith unto them, Peace be unto you. * * *
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the
+      city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and
+      blessed them. And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted
+      from them, and carried up into heaven. And they worshiped him, and
+      returned to Jerusalem with great joy. Luke xxiv, 1-2, 8-9, 13-14, 33-36,
+      49-52.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began
+      both to do and teach, until the day in which he was taken up, after that
+      he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he
+      had chosen: to whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many
+      infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the
+      things pertaining to the kingdom of God: and, being assembled together
+      with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but,
+      wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
+      For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy
+      Ghost not many days hence.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord,
+      wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom of Israel? And he said
+      unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the
+      Father hath put in his own power. But ye shall receive power, after that
+      the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in
+      Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of
+      the earth.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up:
+      and a cloud received him out of their sight. And while they looked
+      steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in
+      white apparel.&mdash;Acts i, 1-10

+      And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among
+      the people.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue
+      of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia
+      and of Asia, disputing with Stephen. And they were not able to resist the
+      wisdom and the spirit by which he spake. Then they suborned men, which
+      said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and against
+      God. And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and
+      came upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council. And set up
+      false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous
+      words against this holy place, and the law: for we have heard him say,
+      that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the
+      customs which Moses delivered us.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And all that sat in the council, looking steadfastly on him, saw his face
+      as it had been the face of an angel.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then said the high priest, Are these things so?
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken: [Stephen here makes his
+      defense, concluding with a terrible, denunciation of the Jews as being
+      stiffnecked and persecutors of their prophets, and as betrayers and
+      murderers of Jesus Christ.]
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they,
+      gnashed on him with their teeth.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up steadfastly into heaven,
+      and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, and
+      said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the
+      right hand of God.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran
+      upon him with one accord, and cast him out of, the city, and stoned him:
+      and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose
+      name was Saul. And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord
+      Jesus, receive my spirit.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin
+      to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
+    </p>

+      And Saul was consenting unto his death.&mdash;Acts vi, 8-15; vii, 1-2,

+      And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the

+      letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way,
+      whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called
+      Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of
+      Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth, and hath seen in a vision a man named
+      Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his
+      sight. Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how
+      much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem: and here he hath
+      authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name. But
+      the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to
+      bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:
+      for I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his
+      hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto
+      thee in the way as thou camest, hash sent me, that thou mightest receive
+      thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost. And immediately there fell
+      from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and
+      arose and was baptized. And when he had received meat, he was
+      strengthened.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus. And

+      Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex
+      certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of John with the
+      sword.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter
+      also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.) And when he had
+      apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four
+      quarternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him
+      forth to the people.

+      Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of

+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was
+      sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers
+      before the door kept the prison. And, behold, the angel of the Lord came
+      upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the
+      side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off
+      from his hands. And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy
+      sandals: And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about
+      thee, and follow me. And he went out, and followed him; and wist not that

+      And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having
+      passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus; and finding certain
+      disciples, he said unto them, Have ye, received the Holy Ghost since ye
+      believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether
+      there be any Holy Ghost. And he, said unto them, Unto what then were ye
+      baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. Then said Paul, John verily
+      baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they
+      should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ
+      Jesus.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
+      And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them;
+      and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. And all the men were about
+      twelve.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three
+      months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that
+      way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the
+      disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus. And this
+      continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia
+      heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: so that from his
+      body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases
+      departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over
+      them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure
+      you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. And there were seven sons of one Sceva,
+      a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. And the evil spirit
+      answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? And the
+      man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and
+      prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and
+      wounded.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus;
+      and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
+      And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds. Many
+      of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and
+      burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found
+      it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.&mdash;Acts xix, 1&mdash;20.

+      certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the castle.
+      And when he came upon the stairs, so it was, that he was borne of the
+      soldiers for the violence of the people. For the multitude of the people
+      followed after, crying, Away with him.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief captain,
+      May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst thou speak Greek? Art not thou that

+      the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers? But Paul said, I am
+      a man which am a Jew of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean
+      city: and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      And when he had given him license, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned
+      with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence, he

+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE

+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,

+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at http://pglaf.org
+
+For additional contact information:
+     Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+     Chief Executive and Director
+     gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.net
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT

+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.net
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,"
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+<h2>THE CREATION OF EVE.</h2>

+
+<p>"And the Lord God said, it is not good that the man should be
+alone; I will make him a helpmeet for him. And the Lord God
+caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept, and he took
+one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; and the
+rib which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and
+brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my
+bone and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because
+she was taken out of man. Therefore shall a man leave his father
+and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they shall be one
+flesh." Genesis ii, 18, 21-24.</p>
+
+<p>In these few words the Scriptures narrate the creation of the
+first mother of our race. In "Paradise Lost," the poetic genius
+of Milton, going more into detail, describes how Eve awoke to
+consciousness, and found herself reposing under a shade of
+flowers, much wondering what she was and whence she came.
+Wandering by the margin of a small lake, she sees her own form
+mirrored in the clear waters, at which she wonders more. But a
+voice is heard, leading her to him for whom she was made, who
+lies sleeping under a grateful shade. It is at this point the
+artist comes to interpret the poet's dream. Amid the varied and
+luxurious foliage of Eden, in the vague light of the early dawn,
+Eve is presented, coy and graceful, gazing on her sleeping Lord,
+while in the background is faintly outlined the mystic form of
+Him in whose image they were created.</p>

+<p>And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us,
+to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, and
+take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever:
+Therefore, the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden,
+to till the ground from whence he was taken. So he drove out the
+man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden cherubims,
+and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of
+the tree of life.&mdash;Genesis iii, 22-24</p>
+
+<p>They, looking back, all the eastern side beheld Of Paradise,
+so late their happy seat, Waved over by that flaming brand; the
+gate, With dreadful forces thronged, and fiery arms Some natural
+tears they dropped, but wiped them soon; The world was all before
+them, where to choose Their place of rest, and Providence their
+guide; They, hand in hand, with wandering steps and slow, Through
+Eden took their solitary way.</p>

+<p>And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain,
+and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord. And she again bare
+his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a
+tiller of the ground. And in process of time it came to pass,
+that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the
+Lord. And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock
+and of the fat thereof. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to
+his offering: But unto Cain and to his offering he had not
+respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. And
+the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy
+countenance fallen? If thou doest well, shalt thou not be
+accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door, and
+unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. And
+Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass,&mdash;when
+they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his
+brother, and slew him.</p>
+
+<p>And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he
+said, I know not Am I my brother's keeper? And he said, What hast
+thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from
+the ground. And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath
+opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand;
+When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto
+thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the
+earth. And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than
+I can bear. Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the
+face of the earth and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall
+be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to
+pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me. And the Lord
+said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall
+be taken on him sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain,
+lest any finding him should kill him.</p>
+
+<p>And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in
+the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.&mdash;Genesis iv, 1-16</p>

+<p>In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month,
+the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the
+fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven
+were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty
+nights.</p>
+
+<p>In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and
+Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives
+of his sons with them, into the ark; they, and every beast after
+his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping
+thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl
+after his kind, every bird of every sort. And they went in unto
+Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the
+breath of life. And they that went in, went in male and female of
+all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the Lord shut him
+in.</p>
+
+<p>And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters
+increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the
+earth. And the waters prevailed, and were increased, greatly upon
+the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters. And the
+waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high
+hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. Fifteen
+cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were
+covered. And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of
+fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing
+that creepeth upon the earth, and every man; all in whose
+nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land,
+died. And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the
+face of the ground, both man and cattle, and the creeping things,
+and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the
+earth; and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him
+in the ark.</p>
+
+<p>And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty
+days.&mdash;Genesis vii, 11-24.</p>

+<p>And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem,
+and Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is the father of Canaan. These are
+the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth
+overspread.</p>
+
+<p>And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
+And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered
+within his tent. And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness
+of his father, and told his two brethren without. And Shem and
+Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders,
+and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and
+their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's
+nakedness. And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his
+younger son had done unto him. And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a
+servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. And he said,
+Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
+God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of
+Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.&mdash;Genesis ix, 18-27.</p>

+
+<p>And the whole earth was of one language, and of one
+speech.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass as they journeyed from the east, that they
+found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. And
+they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them
+thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for
+mortar. And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower,
+whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest
+we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.</p>
+
+<p>And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower which the
+children of men builded. And the Lord said, Behold, the people is
+one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do:
+and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have
+imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their
+language, that they may not understand one another's speech.</p>
+
+<p>So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of
+all the earth: and they left off to build the city.</p>
+
+<p>Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did
+there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did
+the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the
+earth.&mdash;Genesis xi, 1-9.</p>

+bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on:
+for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do,
+as thou hast said.</p>
+
+<p>And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make
+ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make
+cakes upon the hearth. And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetched
+a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he
+hasted to dress it. And he took butter, and milk, and the calf
+which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by
+them under the tree, and they did eat.&mdash;Genesis xvii, 26, 27;
+xviii 1-8.</p>

+<p>Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have
+entertained angels unawares.&mdash;Hebrews xiii, 2.</p>

+
+<p>And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot,
+saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are
+here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city. And
+while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the
+hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the
+Lord being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set
+him without the city.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad,
+that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither
+stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be
+consumed. And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord. Behold
+now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast
+magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my
+life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me
+and I die. Behold now this city is near to flee unto, and it is a
+little one: Oh, let me escape thither (is it not a little one?)
+and my soul shall live. And he said unto him, See, I have
+accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not
+overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken. Haste thee,
+escape thither; for I cannot do anything till thou be come
+thither.</p>
+
+<p>Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.</p>
+
+<p>The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered unto Zoar.
+Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and
+fire from the Lord out of heaven; and he overthrew those cities,
+and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and
+that which grew upon the ground.</p>
+
+<p>But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a
+pillar of salt.</p>
+
+<p>And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he
+stood before the Lord and he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah,
+and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and lo, the
+smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.&mdash;Genesis
+xix, 15-28.</p>

+
+<p>And the Lord visited Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did
+unto Sarah as he had spoken. For Sarah conceived, and bare
+Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had
+spoken to him. And Abraham called the name of his son that was
+born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac. And Abraham
+circumcised his son Isaac, being eight days old, as God had
+commanded him. And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son
+Isaac was born unto him.</p>
+
+<p>And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that
+hear will laugh with me. And she said, Who would have said unto
+Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? for I have
+born him a son in his old age. And the child grew, and was
+weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac
+was weaned.</p>
+
+<p>And Sarah, saw the son of Hagar, the Egyptian, which she had
+born unto Abraham, mocking. Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast
+out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of this, bondwoman
+shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.</p>
+
+<p>And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of
+his son. And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy
+sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all
+that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in
+Isaac shall thy seed be called. And also of the son of the
+bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.</p>
+
+<p>And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and
+a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her
+shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and
+wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.&mdash;Genesis xxi, 1-14.</p>

+shoulder, and the child, and sent her away; and she departed, and
+wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba. And the water was spent
+in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
+And she went and sat her down over against him a good way off, as
+it were a bow-shot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the
+child. And she sat over against him, and lifted up her voice and
+wept. And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God
+called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth
+thee, Hagar? fear not, for God hath heard the voice of the lad
+where he is. Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand;
+for I will make him a great nation. And God opened her eyes, and
+she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with
+water, and gave the lad drink. And God was with the lad; and he
+grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer. And he
+dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took him a wife
+out of the land of Egypt.&mdash;Genesis xxi. 14-21.</p>

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+
+<p>And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt
+Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I
+am. And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom
+thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him
+there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will
+tell thee of.</p>
+
+<p>And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass,
+and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and
+clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up and went unto
+the place of which God had told him. Then on the third day
+Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place afar off. And
+Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and
+I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.
+And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it upon
+Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand and a knife, and
+they went both of them together. And Isaac spake unto Abraham his
+father, and said, My father: and he, said, Here am I, my son. And
+he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for
+a burnt offering? And Abraham said, My son, God will provide
+himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them
+together. And they came to the place which God had told him of;
+and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and
+bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood. And
+Abraham stretched forth his hand and took the knife to slay his
+son. And the angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven, and
+said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I. And he said, Lay
+not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou anything unto him:
+for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not
+withheld thy son, thine only son, from me. And Abraham lifted up
+his eyes and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a
+thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and
+offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.</p>
+
+<p>And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it
+is to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen.</p>
+
+<p>And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven
+the second time, and said, By myself have I sworn, saith the
+Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not
+withheld thy son, thine only son, that in blessing I will bless
+thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of
+heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed
+shall possess the gate of his enemies; and in thy seed shall all
+the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou hast obeyed my
+voice.&mdash;Geneszs xxii. 1-18.</p>

+<p>And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years old these
+were the years of the life of Sarah. And Sarah died in
+Kirjath-arba; the same is Hebron in the land of Canaan and
+Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.</p>
+
+<p>And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spake unto the
+sons of Heth, saying, I am a stranger and a sojourner with you:
+give me a possession of a burying-place with you, that I may bury
+my dead out of my sight.</p>
+
+<p>And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him,
+Hear us, my lord: thou art a mighty prince among us: in the
+choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold
+from thee his sepulchre, but that thou mayest bury thy dead.</p>
+
+<p>And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people of the
+land, even to the children of Heth. And he communed with them,
+saying, If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my
+sight; hear me, and intreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,
+that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which
+is in the end of his field; for as much money as it is worth he
+shall give it me for a possession of a burying-place amongst
+you.</p>
+
+<p>And Ephron dwelt among the children of Heth: and Ephron the
+Hittite answered Abraham in the audience of the children of Heth,
+even of all that went in at the gate of his city, saying, Nay, my
+lord, hear me: the field give I thee, and the cave that is
+therein, I give it thee; in the presence of the sons of my people
+give I it thee: bury thy dead.</p>
+
+<p>And Abraham bowed down himself before the people of the land.
+And he spake unto Ephron in the audience of the people of the
+land, saying, But if thou wilt give it, I pray thee, hear me: I
+will give thee money for the field; take it of me, and I will
+bury my dead there.</p>
+
+<p>And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him, My lord, hearken
+unto me: the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver: what
+is that betwixt me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.</p>
+
+<p>And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron; and Abraham weighed to
+Ephron the silver, which he had named in the audience of the sons
+of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, current money with the
+merchant.</p>
+
+<p>And the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was
+before Mamre, the field, and the cave which was therein, and all
+the trees that were in the field, that were in all the borders
+round about, were made sure unto Abraham for a possession in the
+presence of the children of Heth, before all that went in at the
+gate of his city.</p>
+
+<p>And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of
+the field of Machpelah before Mamre; the same is Hebron in the
+land of Canaan. And the field, and the cave that is therein, were
+made sure unto Abraham for a possession of a burying-place by the
+sons of Heth.&mdash;Genesis xxiii.</p>

+
+<p>And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his
+master, and sware to him concerning that matter.</p>
+
+<p>And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master,
+and departed; for all the goods of his master were in his hand:
+and he arose and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor. And
+he made his camels to kneel down, without the city by a well of
+water at the time of the evening, even the time that women go out
+to draw water. And he said, O Lord God of my master Abraham, I
+pray thee, send me good speed this day, and shew kindness unto my
+master Abraham. Behold, I stand here by the well of water; and
+the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw: water: and
+let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let
+down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall
+say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let the same
+be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and
+thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my
+master.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass before he had done speaking, that, behold,
+Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the
+wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher upon her
+shoulder. And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin,
+neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and
+filled her pitcher and came up. And the servant ran to meet her,
+and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a little water of thy
+pitcher. And she said, Drink, my lord; and she hasted, and let
+down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink. And when she
+had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw water for thy
+camels also, until they have done drinking. And she hasted and
+emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again unto the well
+to draw water, and drew for all his camels.</p>
+
+<p>And the man wondering at her held his peace, to wit whether
+the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the
+man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two
+bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold: and said,
+Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee; is there room in
+thy father's house for us to lodge in? And she said unto him, I
+am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, which she bare unto
+Nahor. She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and
+provender enough, and room to lodge in.</p>
+
+<p>And the man bowed down his head and worshiped the Lord. And he
+said, Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not
+left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in
+the way, the Lord led me to the house of my master's
+brethren.</p>
+
+<p>And the damsel ran, and told them of her mother's house these
+things.&mdash;Genesis xxiv, 9-28.</p>

+
+<p>And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes
+were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau, his eldest
+son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold,
+here am I. And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day
+of my death: Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy
+quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some
+venison; And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it
+to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I
+die.</p>
+
+<p>And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau
+went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.</p>
+
+<p>And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard
+thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying, Bring me venison,
+and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before
+the Lord before my death. Now therefore, my son, obey my voice
+according to that which I command thee. Go now to the flock, and
+fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats; and I will make
+them savoury meat for thy father such as he loveth; And thou
+shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may
+bless thee before his death.</p>
+
+<p>And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother
+is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man: My father peradventure
+will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall
+bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.</p>
+
+<p>And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son:
+only obey my voice, and go fetch me them.</p>
+
+<p>And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and
+his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved. And
+Rebekah took goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which were
+with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son:
+And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands and
+upon the smooth of his neck: And she gave the savoury meat and
+the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son
+Jacob.</p>
+
+<p>And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said,
+Here am I; who art thou, my son? And Jacob said unto his father,
+I am Esau thy first born; I have done according as thou badest
+me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul
+may bless me. And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou
+hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the Lord
+thy God brought it to me. And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I
+pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou be my very
+son Esau or not. And Jacob went; near unto Isaac his father; and
+he felt him, and said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands
+are the hands of Esau. And he discerned him not, because his
+hands were hairy, as his brother Esau's hands: so he blessed
+him.</p>
+
+<p>And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am. And
+he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's venison,
+that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and
+he did eat; and he brought him wine, and he drank. And his father
+Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son. And he
+came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his
+raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is
+as the smell of a field which the Lord hath blessed: Therefore
+God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth,
+and plenty of corn and wine: Let people serve thee, and nations
+bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's
+sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and
+blessed be he that blesseth thee.&mdash;Genesis xxvii. 1-29.</p>

+
+<p>And while he yet spake with them, Rachel came with her
+father's sheep: for she kept them. And it came to pass, when
+Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and
+the sheep of Laban his mother's brother, that Jacob went near,
+and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the flock
+of Laban his mother's brother. And Jacob kissed Rachel, and
+lifted up his voice, and wept. And Jacob told Rachel that he was
+her father's brother, and that he was Rebekah's son: and she ran
+and told her father.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, when Laban heard the tidings of Jacob his
+sister's son, that he ran to meet him, and embraced him, and
+kissed him, and brought him to his house. And he told Laban all
+these things. And Laban said to him, Surely thou art my bone and
+my flesh. And he abode with him the space of a month. And Laban
+said unto Jacob, Because thou art my brother, shouldest thou
+therefore serve me for naught? tell me, what shall thy wages
+be?</p>
+
+<p>And Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder was Leah,
+and the name of the younger was Rachel. Leah was tender eyed; but
+Rachel was beautiful and well favoured.</p>
+
+<p>And Jacob loved Rachel; and said, I will serve thee seven
+years for Rachel thy younger daughter. And Laban said, It is
+better that I give her to thee, than that I should give her to
+another man; abide with me.</p>
+
+<p>And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they seemed unto
+him but a few days, for the love he had for her. And Jacob said
+unto Laban, Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I
+may go in unto her.</p>
+
+<p>And Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made
+a feast. And it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah
+his daughter, and brought her to him; and he went in unto her.
+And Laban gave unto his daughter Leah Zilpah his maid, for an
+handmaid. And it came to pass that in the morning, behold, it was
+Leah: and he said to Laban, What is this thou hast done unto me?
+did not I serve with thee for Rachel? wherefore then hast thou
+beguiled me? And Laban said, It must not be so done in our
+country, to give the younger before the firstborn. Fulfil her
+week, and we will give thee this also for the service which thou
+shalt serve with me yet seven other years.</p>
+
+<p>And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week; and he gave him
+Rachel his daughter to wife also. And Laban gave to Rachel his
+daughter Bilhah his handmaid to be her maid. And he went in also
+unto Rachel, and he loved also Rachel more than Leah, and served
+with him yet seven other years.&mdash;Genesis xxix, 9-30.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen
+years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren, and the lad
+was with the sons of Bilhah and with the sons of Zilpah, his
+father's wives; and Joseph brought unto his father their evil
+report. Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children,
+because he was the son of his old age; and he made him a coat of
+many colors. And when his brethren saw that their father loved
+him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not
+speak peaceably unto him.</p>
+
+<p>And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and
+they hated him yet the more. And he said unto them, Hear, I pray
+you, this dream which I have dreamed. For, behold, we were
+binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also
+stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and
+made obeisance to my sheaf. And his brethren said to him, Shalt
+thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion
+over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams and for
+his words.</p>
+
+<p>And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren,
+and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the
+sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me. And
+he told it to his father and to his brethren; and his father
+rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast
+dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to
+bow down ourselves to thee to the earth. And his brethren envied
+him; but his father observed the saying.</p>
+
+<p>And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in
+Shechem.</p>
+
+<p>And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.
+And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near unto
+them, they conspired against him to slay him. And they said one
+to another, Behold, this dreamer cometh. Come now, therefore, and
+let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say,
+Some evil beast hath devoured him; and we shall see what will
+become of his dreams. And Reuben heard it, and he delivered him
+out of their hands; and said, Let us not kill him. And Reuben
+said unto them, Shed no blood, but cast him into this pit that is
+in the wilderness, and lay no hand upon him; that he might rid
+him out of their hands to deliver him to his father again.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren,
+that they stript Joseph out of his coat, his coat of many colors
+that was on him; and they took him and cast him into a pit; and
+the pit was empty, there was no water in it. And they sat down to
+eat bread; and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold,
+a company of Ishmaelites came from Gilead with their camels
+bearing spicery and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to
+Egypt. And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit is it if we
+slay our brother, and conceal his blood? Come, and let us sell
+him to the Ishmaelites, and let not our hand be upon him, for he
+is our brother and our flesh. And his brethren were content.</p>
+
+<p>Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and
+lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the
+Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver; and they brought Joseph
+into Egypt.</p>
+
+<p>And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an
+officer of Pharaoh's, and captain of the guard.&mdash;Genesis xxxvii,

+<br>
+
+<p>And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh
+dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river. And, behold, there
+came up out of the river seven well favoured kine and
+fat-fleshed; and they fed in a meadow. And, behold, seven other
+kine came up after them out of the river, ill favoured and
+lean-fleshed; and stood by the other kine upon the brink of the
+river. And the ill favored and lean-fleshed kine did eat up the
+seven well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.</p>
+
+<p>And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven
+ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good. And, behold,
+seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after
+them. And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full
+ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was
+troubled; and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt,
+and all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh told them his dream;
+but there was none that could interpret them unto Pharaoh.</p>
+
+<p>[At the suggestion of his chief butler Pharaoh sends for
+Joseph and relates to him his dreams, which Joseph interprets as
+follows:]</p>
+
+<p>And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God
+hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do. The seven good kine
+are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the
+dream is one. And the seven thin and ill favoured kine that came
+up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted
+with the east wind shall be seven years of famine. This is the
+thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do
+he sheweth unto Pharaoh. Behold, there come seven years of great
+plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall arise
+after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be
+forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the
+land; and the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of
+that famine following; for it shall be very grievous. And for
+that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice it is because the
+thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to
+pass.</p>
+
+<p>Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise,
+and set him over the land of Egypt. Let Pharaoh do this, and let
+him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of
+the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years. And let them
+gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up
+corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the
+cities. And that food shall be for store to the land against the
+seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that
+the land perish not through the famine.&mdash;Genesis xli. 1-36.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that
+stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me.
+And there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known
+unto his brethren. And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians and the
+house of Pharaoh heard.</p>
+
+<p>And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father
+yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they were
+troubled at his presence. And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come
+near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am
+Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt. Now therefore be
+not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither:
+for God did send me before you to preserve life. For these two
+years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there are five
+years, in which there shall neither be earing nor harvest. And
+God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth,
+and to save your lives by a great deliverance. So now it was not
+you that sent me hither, but God: and he hath made me a father to
+Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all
+the land of Egypt. Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto
+him, Thus saith thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all
+Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not: And thou shalt dwell in the
+land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy
+children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and thy
+herds, and all that thou hast. And there will I nourish thee; for
+yet there are five years of famine; lest thou, and thy household,
+and all that thou hast, come to poverty. And, behold, your eyes
+see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth
+that speaketh unto you. And ye shall tell my father of all my
+glory in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen; and ye shall haste
+and bring down my father hither.</p>
+
+<p>And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and
+Benjamin wept upon his neck. Moreover he kissed all his brethren,
+and wept upon them: and after that his brethren talked with
+him.</p>
+
+<p>And the fame thereof was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying,
+Joseph's brethren are come and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his
+servants.</p>
+
+<p>And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, say unto thy brethren, This do
+ye; lade your beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan;
+and take your father and your households, and come unto me: and I
+will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the
+fat of the land.&mdash;Genesis xlv, 1-18.</p>

+months. And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him

+put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the
+river's brink. And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would

+
+<p>And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the
+river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when

+And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the
+babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one
+of the Hebrews' children. Then said his sister to Pharaoh's
+daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew
+women, that she may nurse the child for thee? And Pharaoh's
+daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the

+
+<p>Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of
+Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of
+Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and
+went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped before Gibeon,
+and made war against it.</p>
+
+<p>And the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua to the camp to Gilgal,
+saying, Slack not thy hand from thy servants; come up to us
+quickly, and save us and help us: for all the kings of the
+Amorites that dwell in the mountains are gathered together
+against us.</p>
+
+<p>So Joshua ascended from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war
+with him, and all the mighty men of valor. And the Lord said unto
+Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thine hand;
+there shall not a man of them stand before thee. Joshua therefore
+came unto them suddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night. And
+the Lord discomfited them before Israel, and slew them with a
+great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that
+goeth up to Beth-horon, and smote them to Azekah, and unto
+Makkedah. And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel,
+and were in the going down to Beth-horon, that the Lord cast down
+great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died:
+they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the
+children of Israel slew with the sword.</p>
+
+<p>Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord
+delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he
+said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon;
+and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon. And the sun stood still,
+and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon
+their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the
+sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hastened not to go
+down about a whole day. And there was no day like that before it
+or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for
+the Lord fought for Israel.</p>
+
+<p>And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to
+Gilgal. But these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave
+at Makkedah. And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are
+found hid in a cave at Makkedah. And Joshua said, Roll great
+stones upon the mouth of the cave, and set men by it for to keep
+them: and stay ye not, but pursue after your enemies, and smite
+the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into their cities;
+for the Lord your God hath delivered them into your hand.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel
+had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter, till
+they were consumed, that the rest which remained of them entered

+<p>Now Heber the Kenite, which was of the children of Hobab, the
+father-in-law of Moses, had severed himself from the Kenites, and
+pitched his tent unto the plain of Zaanaim, which is by
+Kedesh.</p>
+
+<p>And they shewed Sisera that Barak, the son of Abinoam, was
+gone up to Mount Tabor. And Sisera gathered together all his
+chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people
+that were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles unto the river
+of Kishon.</p>
+
+<p>And Deborah said unto Barak, Up; for this is the day in which

+gone out before thee? So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, and
+ten thousand men after him.</p>
+
+<p>And the Lord discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots and all
+his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; so that Sisera
+lighted down off his chariot, and fled away on his feet. But
+Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the host, unto
+Harosheth of the Gentiles: and all the host of Sisera fell upon
+the edge of the sword; and there was not a man left.</p>
+
+<p>Howbeit Sisera fled away on his feet to the tent of Jael, the
+wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin the
+king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite. And Jael went
+out to meet Sisera, and said unto him, Turn in, my lord, turn in
+to me; fear not. And when he had turned in unto her into the
+tent, she covered him with a mantle. And he said unto her, Give
+me, I pray thee, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty. And
+she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.
+Again he said unto her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it
+shall be, when any man doth come and enquire of thee, and say, Is
+there any man here? that thou shalt say, No. Then Jael, Heber's
+wife, took a nail of the tent, and took an hammer in her hand,
+and went softly unto him, and smote the nail into his temples,
+and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep and
+weary. So he died.</p>
+
+<p>And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet
+him, and said unto him, Come, and I will show thee the man whom
+thou seekest. And when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay
+dead, and the nail was in his temples. Judges iv, 2-22.</p>

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+
+<p>Then sang Deborah and Barak, the son of Abinoam on that day,
+saying:&mdash;</p>
+
+<p>Praise ye the Lord for the avenging of Israel, When the people
+willingly offered themselves. Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye
+princes; I, even I, will sing unto the Lord; I will sing praise
+to the Lord God of Israel. Lord, when thou wentest out of Seir,
+When thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, The earth trembled,
+and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water. The
+mountains melted from before the Lord, Even that Sinai from
+before the Lord God of Israel.</p>
+
+<br><hr><br>
+
+<p>Blessed above women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite
+be; Blessed shall she be above women in the tent. He asked water,
+and she gave him milk; She brought forth butter in a lordly dish.
+She put her hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workmen's
+hammer; And with the hammer she smote Sisera, She smote off his
+head, when she had pierced and stricken through his temples. At
+her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down: At her feet he bowed, he
+fell: Where he bowed, there he fell down dead. The mother of
+Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why
+is his chariot so long in coming? Why tarry the wheels of his
+chariots? Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer
+to herself, Have they not sped? Have they not divided the prey;
+To every man a damsel or two; To Sisera a prey of divers colours,
+a prey of divers colours of needlework, Of divers colours of
+needlework on both sides, meet for the necks of them that take
+the spoil? So let all thine enemies perish, O Lord: But let them
+that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might.
+Judges v, 2-5, 24-31</p>

+
+<p>Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jephthah, and he passed
+over Gilead, and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and
+from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of
+Ammon.</p>
+
+<p>And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the Lord, and said, If thou
+shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into mine hands,
+then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my
+house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of
+Ammon, shall surely be the Lord's, and I will offer it up for a
+burnt offering.</p>
+
+<p>So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight
+against them; and the Lord delivered them into his hands. And he
+smote them from Aroer, even till thou come to Minnith, even
+twenty cities, and unto the plain of the vineyards, with a very
+great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were subdued before
+the children of Israel.</p>
+
+<p>And Jephthah came to Mizpeh unto his house, and, behold, his
+daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and
+she was his only child; beside her he had neither son nor
+daughter. Judges xi, 29-34.</p>

+
+<p>And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his
+clothes, and said, Alas, my daughter! thou hast brought me very
+low, and thou art one of them that trouble me: for I have opened
+my mouth unto the Lord, and I cannot go back.</p>
+
+<p>And she said unto him, My father, if thou hast opened thy
+mouth unto the Lord, do to me according to that which hath
+proceeded out of thy mouth; forasmuch as the Lord hath taken
+vengeance for thee of thine enemies, even of the children of
+Ammon. And she said unto her father, Let this thing be done for
+me: let me alone two months, that I may go up and down upon the
+mountains, and bewail my virginity, I and my fellows.</p>
+
+<p>And he said, Go. And he sent her away for two months: and she
+went with her companions, and bewailed her virginity upon the
+mountains.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she
+returned unto her father, who did with her according to his vow
+which he had vowed: and she knew no man.</p>
+
+<p>And it was a custom in Israel, that the daughters of Israel
+went yearly to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four
+days in a year. Judges xi, 35-40.</p>

+<p>Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to
+Timnath, and came to the vineyards of Timnath; and, behold, a
+young lion roared against him. And the Spirit of the Lord came
+mightily upon him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid,
+and he had nothing in his hand; but he told not his father or his
+mother what he had done. Judges xiv, 5-6.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>And it came to pass afterward, that he loved a woman in the
+valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.</p>
+
+<p>And the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and said
+unto her, Entice him, and see wherein his great strength lieth,
+and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind
+him to afflict him; and we will give thee every one of us eleven
+hundred pieces of silver.</p>
+
+<p>And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein thy
+great strength lieth, and wherewith thou mightest be bound to
+afflict thee. And Samson said unto her, If they bind me with
+seven green withs that were never dried, then shall I be weak,
+and be as another man. Then the lords of the Philistines brought
+up to her seven green withs which had not been dried, and she
+bound him with them. Now there were men lying in wait, abiding
+with her in the chamber. And she said unto him, The Philistines
+be upon thee, Samson. And he brake the withs, as a thread of tow
+is broken when it toucheth the fire. So his strength was not
+known.</p>
+
+<p>And Delilah said unto Samson, Behold, thou hast mocked me, and
+told me lies: now tell me, I pray thee, wherewith thou mightest
+be bound. And he said unto her, If they bind me fast with clew
+ropes that never were occupied, then shall I be weak, and be as
+another man. Delilah therefore took new ropes, and bound him
+therewith, and said unto him, The Philistines be upon thee,
+Samson. And there were liers in wait abiding in the chamber. And
+he brake them from off his arms like a thread.</p>
+
+<p>And Delilah said unto Samson, Hitherto thou hast mocked me,
+and told me lies: tell me wherewith thou mightest be bound. And
+he said unto her, If thou weavest the seven locks of my head with
+the web. And she fastened it with the pin, and said unto him, The
+Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awaked out of his sleep,
+and went away with the pin of the beam and with the web.</p>
+
+<p>And she said unto him, How canst thou say, I love thee, when
+thine heart is not with me? thou hast mocked me these three
+times, and hast not told me wherein thy great strength lieth. And
+it came to pass, when she pressed him daily with her words, and
+urged him, so that his soul was vexed unto death; that he told
+her all his heart, and said unto her, There hath not come a razor
+upon mine head; for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my
+mother's womb if I be shaven, then my strength will go from me,
+and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.</p>
+
+<p>And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she
+sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up
+this once, for he hath showed me all his heart. Then the lords of
+the Philistines came up unto her, and brought money in their
+hand. And she made him sleep upon her knees; and she called for a
+man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head;
+and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him. And
+she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out
+of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before,
+and shake myself. And he wist not that the Lord was departed from
+him. Judges xvi, 4-20.</p>

+
+<p>But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and
+brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass;
+and he did grind in the prison house.</p>
+
+<p>Howbeit the hair of his head began to grow again after he was
+shaven.</p>
+
+<p>Then the lords of the Philistines gathered them together for
+to offer a great sacrifice unto Dagon their god, and to rejoice:
+for they said, Our God hath delivered Samson our enemy into our
+hand. And when the people saw him, they praised their god: for
+they said, Our god hath delivered into our hands our enemy, and
+the destroyer of our country, which slew many of us. And it came
+to pass, when their hearts were merry, that they said, Call for
+Samson, that he may make us sport. And they called for Samson out
+of the prison house; and he made them sport: and they set him
+between the pillars. And Samson said unto the lad that held him
+by the hand, Suffer me that I may feel the pillars whereupon the
+house standeth, that I may lean upon them. Now the house was full
+of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were
+there; and there were upon the roof about three thousand men and
+women, that beheld while Samson made sport.</p>
+
+<p>And Samson called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord God,
+remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only
+this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the
+Philistines for my two eyes. And Samson took hold of the two
+middle pillars upon which the house stood, and on which it was
+borne up, of the one with his right hand, and of the other with
+his left. And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And
+he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell upon the
+lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead
+which he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in
+his life.</p>
+
+<p>Then his brethren and all the house of his father came down,
+and took him, and brought him up, and buried him between Zorah
+and Eshtaol in the burying-place of Manoah his father. And he
+judged Israel twenty years.&mdash;Judges xvi; 21-31</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>Now it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that
+there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of
+Beth-lehem-judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and
+his wife, and his two sons. And the name of the man was
+Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his
+two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Beth-lehem-judah. And
+they came into the country of Moab, and continued there. And
+Elimelech Naomi's husband died; and she was left, and her two
+sons. And they took them wives of the women of Moab; the name of
+the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they dwelt
+there about ten years. And Mahlon and Chilion died also both of
+them; and the woman was left of her two sons and her husband.</p>
+
+<p>Then she arose with her daughters in law, that she might
+return from the country of Moab for she had heard in the country
+of Moab how that the Lord had visited his people in giving them
+bread. Wherefore she went forth out of the place where she was,
+and her two daughters in law with her; and they went on the way
+to return unto the land of Judah.</p>
+
+<p>And Naomi said unto her two daughters in law, Go, return each
+to her mother's house the Lord deal kindly with you, as ye have
+dealt with the dead, and with me. The Lord grant you that ye may
+find rest, each of you in the house of her husband.</p>
+
+<p>Then she kissed them; and they lifted up their voice, and
+wept. And they said unto her, Surely we will return with thee
+unto thy people.</p>
+
+<p>And Naomi said, Turn again, my daughters: why will ye go with
+me? are there yet any more sons in my womb, that they may be your
+husbands? Turn again, my daughters, go your way; for I am too old
+to have a husband. If I should say, I have hope, if I should have
+a husband also to night, and should also bear sons; would ye
+tarry for them till they were grown? would ye stay for them from
+having husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for
+your sakes that the hand of the Lord is gone out against me.</p>
+
+<p>And they lifted up their voice, and wept again: and Orpah
+kissed her mother in law but Ruth cleave unto her.</p>
+
+<p>And she said, Behold, thy sister in law is gone back unto her
+people, and unto her gods return thou after thy sister in
+law.</p>
+
+<p>And Ruth said, Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return from
+following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and
+where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people,
+and thy God my God: Where thou diest, will I die, and there will
+I be buried: the Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but
+death part thee and me.</p>
+
+<p>When she saw that she was steadfastly minded to go with her,
+then she left speaking unto her.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of
+wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.</p>
+
+<p>And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi, Let me now go to the
+field, and glean ears of corn after him in whose sight I shall
+find grace. And she said unto her, Go, my daughter. And she went,
+and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and her hap
+was to light on a part of the field belonging unto Boaz, who was
+of the kindred of Elimelech.</p>
+
+<p>And, behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem, and said unto the
+reapers, The Lord be with you. And they answered him, The Lord
+bless thee. Then said Boaz unto his servant that was set over the
+reapers, Whose damsel is this? And the servant that was set over
+the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish damsel that
+came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab: and she said, I
+pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the
+sheaves: so she came, and hath continued even from the morning
+until now, that she tarried a little in the house.</p>
+
+<p>Then said Boaz unto Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go
+not to glean in another field, neither go from hence, but abide
+here fast by my maidens: let thine eyes be on the field that they
+do reap, and go thou after them: have I not charged the young men
+that they shall not touch thee? and when thou art athirst, go
+unto the vessels, and drink of that which the young men have
+drawn.</p>
+
+<p>Then she fell on her face and bowed herself to the ground, and
+said unto him, Why have I found grace in thine eyes, that thou
+shouldest take knowledge of me, seeing I am a stranger?</p>
+
+<p>And Boaz answered and said unto her, It hath fully been shewed
+me, all that thou hast done unto thy mother in law since the
+death of thine husband: and how thou hast left thy father and thy
+mother, and the land of thy nativity, and art come unto a people
+which thou knewest not heretofore. The Lord recompense thy work,
+and a full reward be given thee of the Lord God of Israel, under
+whose wings thou art come to trust.</p>
+
+<p>Then she said, Let me find favor in thy sight, my lord; for
+that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken
+friendly unto thine handmaid, though I be not like unto one of
+thine handmaidens.</p>
+
+<p>And Boaz said unto her, At mealtime come thou hither, and eat
+of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she sat
+beside the reapers: and he reached her parched corn, and she did
+eat, and was sufficed, and left. And when she was risen up to
+glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, Let her glean even
+among the sheaves, and reproach her not: and let fall also some
+of the handfuls of purpose for her, and leave them, that she may
+glean them and rebuke her not.</p>
+
+<p>So she gleaned in the field until even, and beat out that she
+had gleaned: and it was about an ephah of barley.&mdash;Ruth ii.

+<h2>THE RETURN OF THE ARK.</h2>

+<br>
+
+<p>And the ark of the Lord was in the country of the Philistines
+seven months. And the Philistines called for the priests and the
+diviners, saying, What shall we do to the ark of the Lord? tell
+us wherewith we shall send it to his place. And they said, If ye
+send away the ark of the God of Israel, send it not empty; but in
+any wise return him a trespass offering: then ye shall be healed,
+and it shall be known to you why his hand is not removed from
+you. Then said they, What shall be the trespass offering which we
+shall return to him? They answered, Five golden emerods, and five
+golden mice, according to the number of the lords of the
+Philistines: for one plague was on you all, and on your lords.
+Wherefore ye shall make images of your emerods, and images of
+your mice that mar the land; and ye shall give glory unto the God
+of Israel: peradventure he will lighten his hand from off you,
+and from off your gods, and from off your land. Wherefore then do
+ye harden your hearts, as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened
+their hearts? when he had wrought wonderfully among them, did
+they not let the people go, and they departed? Now therefore make
+a new cart, and take two milch kine, on which there hath come no
+yoke, and tie the kine to the cart, and bring their calves home
+from them: and take the ark of the Lord, and lay it upon the
+cart; and put the jewels of gold, which ye return him for a
+trespass offering, in a coffer by the side thereof; and send it
+away, that it may go. And see, if it goeth up by the way of his
+own coast to Beth-shemesh, then he hath done us this great evil:
+but if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that smote
+us; it was a chance that happened to us.</p>
+
+<p>And the men did so; and took two milch kine, and tied them to
+the cart, and shut up their calves at home: and they laid the ark
+of the Lord upon the cart, and the coffer with the mice of gold
+and the images of their emerods. And the kine took the straight
+way to the way of Beth-shemesh, and went along the highway,
+lowing as they went, and turned not aside to the right hand or to
+the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them, unto
+the border of Beth-shemesh. And they of Beth-shemesh were reaping
+their wheat harvest in the valley: and they lifted up their eyes,
+and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it. And the cart came into
+the field of Joshua, a Beth-shemite, and stood there, where there
+was a great stone: and they clave the wood of the cart, and
+offered the kine a burnt offering unto the Lord.</p>
+
+<p>And the Levites took down the ark of the Lord, and the coffer
+that was with it, wherein the jewels of gold were, and put them
+on the great stone: and the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt
+offerings and sacrificed sacrifices the same day unto the
+Lord.&mdash;1 Samuel vi, 1-5.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto
+Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David,
+and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. And Saul took him that
+day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house.</p>
+
+<p>Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him
+as his own soul. And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that
+was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his
+sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.</p>
+
+<p>And David went out withersoever Saul sent him, and behaved
+himself wisely: and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was
+accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of
+Saul's servants.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from
+the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all
+cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with
+tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of music. And the women
+answered one another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain
+his thousands, and David his ten thousands.</p>
+
+<p>And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he
+said, "They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to me
+they have ascribed but thousands: and what can he have more but
+the kingdom?"  And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from
+God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house:
+and David played with his hand, as at other times: and there was
+a javelin in Saul's hand. And Saul cast the javelin; for he said,
+I will smite David even to the wall with it. And David avoided
+out of his presence twice.&mdash;1 Samuel xviii, I-II.</p>

+<h2>DAVID SPARING SAUL.</h2>
+<br><br>
+<a href="images/032.jpg"><img alt="032th.jpg (34K)" src="images/032th.jpg" height="487" width="375"></a>
+</center>
+<br>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the
+Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in
+the wilderness of Engedi. Then Saul took three thousand chosen
+men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon
+the rocks of the wild goats. And he came to the sheepcotes by the
+way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and
+David and his men remained in the sides of the cave.</p>
+
+<p>And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which
+the Lord said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into
+thine hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto
+thee. Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe
+privily. And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote
+him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt. And he said unto his
+men, The Lord forbid that I should do this thing unto my master,
+the Lord's anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him,
+seeing he is the anointed of the Lord.</p>
+
+<p>So David stayed his servants with these words, and suffered
+them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave,
+and went on his way. David also arose afterward, and went out of
+the cave, and cried after Saul, saying, My lord the king. And
+when Saul looked behind him, David stooped with his face to the
+earth and bowed himself.</p>
+
+<p>And David said to Saul, Wherefore hearest thou men's words,
+saying, Behold, David seeketh thy hurt? Behold, this day thine
+eyes have seen how that the Lord had delivered thee to-day into
+mine hand in the cave: and some bade me kill thee; but mine eye
+spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth mine hand against
+my lord; for he is the Lord's anointed. Moreover, my father, see,
+yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand: for in that I cut off
+the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou and see
+that there is neither evil nor transgression in mine hand, and I
+have not sinned against thee; yet thou huntest my soul to take
+it. The Lord judge between me and thee, and the Lord avenge me of
+thee: but mine hand shall not be upon thee. As saith the proverb
+of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but mine
+hand shall not be upon thee. After whom is the king of Israel
+come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a
+flea. The Lord therefore be judge, and judge between me and thee,
+and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thine
+hand.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, when David had made an end of speaking
+these words unto Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son
+David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept. And he said to
+David, Thou art more righteous than I: for thou hast rewarded me
+good, whereas I have rewarded thee evil. And thou hast shewed
+this day how that thou hast dealt well, with me: forasmuch as
+when the Lord had delivered me into thine hand, thou killedst me
+not. For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well away?
+wherefore the Lord reward thee good for that thou hast done unto
+me this day. And now, behold, I know well that thou shalt surely
+be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in
+thine hand. Swear now therefore unto me by the Lord, that thou
+wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy
+my name out of my father's house.</p>
+
+<p>And David sware unto Saul. And Saul went home; but David and
+his men gat them up unto the hold.&mdash;2 Samuel xxiv, 2&mdash;22.</p>

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+
+<p>Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of
+Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in
+mount Gilboa. And the Philistines followed hard upon Saul and
+upon his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab,
+and Melchshua, Saul's sons.</p>
+
+<p>And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit
+him; and he was sore wounded of the archers. Then said Saul unto
+his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through
+therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through,
+and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore
+afraid. Therefore, Saul took a sword, and fell upon it. And when
+his armourbearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise upon
+his sword, and died with him.</p>
+
+<p>So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armourbearer, and
+all his men, that same day together.</p>
+
+<p>And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the
+valley, and they that were on the other side Jordan, saw that the
+men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they
+forsook the cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt
+in them. And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines
+came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons
+fallen in mount Gilboa. And they cut off his head, and stripped
+off his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round
+about, to publish it in the house of their idols, and among the
+people. And they put his armour in the house of Ashtaroth and
+they fastened his body to the wall of Beth-shan.</p>
+
+<p>And when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard of that which
+the Philistines had done to Saul; all the valiant men arose, and
+went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his
+sons from the wall of Beth-shan, and came to Jabesh, and burnt
+them there. And they took their bones, and buried them under a
+tree at Jabesh, and fasted seven days. 1 Samuel xxxi.</p>

+
+<p>And David numbered the people that were with him, and set
+captains of thousands and captains of hundreds over them. And
+David set forth a third part of the people under the hand of
+Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of
+Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai
+the Gittite. And the king said unto the people, I will surely go
+forth with you myself also.</p>
+
+<p>But the people answered, Thou shalt not go forth: for if we
+flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die,
+will they care for us: but now thou art worth ten thousand of us:
+therefore now it is better that thou succor us out of the
+city.</p>
+
+<p>And the king said unto them, What seemeth you best I will do.
+And the king stood by the gate side, and all the people came out
+by hundreds and by thousands. And the king commanded Joab and
+Abishai and Ittai, saying, Deal gently for my sake with the young
+man, even with Absalom. And all the people heard when the king
+gave all the captains charge concerning Absalom.</p>
+
+<p>So the people went out into the field against Israel: and the
+battle was in the wood of Ephraim; where the people of Israel
+were slain before the servants of David, and there was there a
+great slaughter that day, of twenty thousand men. For the battle
+was there scattered over the face of all the country: and the
+wood devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.</p>
+
+<p>And Absalom met the servants of David. And Absalom rode upon a
+mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak,
+and his head caught hold of the oak, and he was taken up between
+the heaven and the earth; and the mule that was under him went
+away.</p>
+
+<p>And a certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold I
+saw Absalom hanged in an oak.</p>
+
+<p>And Joab said unto the man that told him, And, behold, thou
+sawest him, and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground?
+and I would have given thee ten shekels of silver, and a
+girdle.</p>
+
+<p>And the man said unto Joab, Though I should receive a thousand
+shekels of silver in mine hand, yet would I not put forth mine
+hand against the king's son: for in our hearing the king charged
+thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Beware that none touch the
+young man Absalom. Otherwise I should have wrought falsehood
+against mine own life: for there is no matter hid from the king,
+and thou thyself wouldst have set thyself against me.</p>
+
+<p>Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with thee. And he took
+three darts in his hand, and thrust them through the heart of
+Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak. And ten
+young men that bare Joab's armor compassed about and smote
+Absalom, and slew him. And Joab blew the trumpet, and the people
+returned from pursuing after Israel: for Joab held back the
+people. And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in
+the wood, and laid a very great heap of stones upon him: and all
+Israel fled every one to his tent.&mdash;2 Samuel xviii, 1-17.</p>

+
+<p>Then said Ahimaaz the son of Zadok, Let me now run, and bear
+the king tidings, how that the Lord hath avenged him of his
+enemies. And Joab said unto him, Thou shalt not bear tidings this
+day, but thou shalt bear tidings another day: but this day thou
+shalt bear no tidings, because the king's son is dead. Then said
+Joab to Cushi, Go tell the king what thou hast seen. And Cushi
+bowed himself unto Joab, and ran. Then said Ahimaaz the son of
+Zadok yet again to Joab, But howsoever, let me, I pray thee, also
+run after Cushi. And Joab said, Wherefore wilt thou run, my son,
+seeing that thou hast no tidings ready? But howsoever, said he
+let me run. And he said unto him, Run. Then Ahimaaz ran by the
+way of the plain, and overran Cushi.</p>
+
+<p>And David sat between the two gates: and the watchman went up
+to the roof over the gate unto the wall, and lifted up his eyes,
+and looked, and behold a man running alone. And the watchman
+cried, and told the king. And the king said, If he be alone,
+there is tidings in his mouth. And he came apace, and drew near.
+And the watchman saw another man running: and the watchman called
+unto the porter, and said, Behold another man running alone. And
+the king said, He also bringeth tidings. And the watchman said,
+Me thinketh the running of the foremost is like the running of
+Ahimaaz the son of Zadok. And the king said, He is a good man,
+and cometh with good tidings.</p>
+
+<p>And Ahimaaz called, and said unto the king, All is well. And
+he fell down to the earth upon his face before the king, and
+said, Blessed be the Lord thy God, which hath delivereth up the
+men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king. And the
+king said, Is the young man Absalom safe? And Ahimaaz answered,
+When Joab sent the king's servant, and me thy servant, I saw a
+great tumult, but I knew not what it was. And the king said unto
+him, Turn aside, and stand here. And he turned aside, and stood
+still.</p>
+
+<p>And, behold, Cushi came; and Cushi said, Tidings, my lord the
+king: for the Lord bath avenged thee this day of all them that
+rose up against thee. And the king said unto Cushi, Is the young
+man Absalom safe? And Cushi answered, The enemies of my lord the
+king, and all that rise against thee to do thee hurt, be as that
+young man is.</p>
+
+<p>And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over
+the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he said, O my son
+Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died for thee, O
+Absalom, my son, my son!</p>
+
+<p>And it was told Joab, Behold the king weepeth and mourneth for
+Absalom. And the victory that day was turned into mourning unto
+all the people: for the people heard say that day how the king
+was grieved for his son. And the people gat them by stealth that
+day into the city, as people being ashamed steal away when they
+flee in battle.</p>
+
+<p>But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud
+voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!&mdash;2 Samuel
+xviii, 19 33; xix, 1-4.</p>

+<p>And David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem,
+after he was come from Hebron: and there were yet sons and

+were born unto him in Jerusalem; Shammuah, and Shobab, and

+
+<p>So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of
+David. And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty
+years: seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three
+years reigned he in Jerusalem.</p>
+
+<p>Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father, and his
+kingdom was established greatly.&mdash;1 Kings ii, 10-12.</p>
+
+<p>And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much,
+and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea
+shore. And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the
+children of the east country, and all the wisdom of Egypt. For he
+was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and
+Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all
+nations round about. And he spake three thousand proverbs: and
+his songs were a thousand and five. And he spake of trees, from
+the cedar tree that is in Lebanon even unto the hyssop that
+springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts, and of fowl,
+and of creeping things, and of fishes. And there came of all
+people to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the
+earth, which had heard of his wisdom.&mdash;2 Kings iv, 29-34.</p>

+
+<p>Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king,
+and stood before him.</p>
+
+<p>And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in
+one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.
+And it came to pass the third day after that I was delivered,
+that this woman was delivered also: and we were together; there
+was no stranger with us in the house, save we two in the house.
+And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid
+it. And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me,
+while thine handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid
+her dead child in my bosom. And when I rose in the morning to
+give my child suck, behold, it was dead: but when I had
+considered it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, which I
+did bear.</p>
+
+<p>And the other woman said, Nay; but the living is my son, and
+the dead is thy son.</p>
+
+<p>And this said, No; but the dead is thy son, and, the living is
+my son.</p>
+
+<p>Thus they spake before the king.</p>
+
+<p>Then said the king, The one saith, This is my son that liveth,
+and thy son is the dead&mdash;and the other saith, Nay; but thy son is
+the dead, and my son is the living. And the king said, Bring me a
+sword.</p>
+
+<p>And they brought a sword before the king.</p>
+
+<p>And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give
+half to the one, and half to the other.</p>
+
+<p>Then spake the woman whose the living child was unto the king,
+for her bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my lord,
+give her the living child, and in no wise slay it.</p>
+
+<p>But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but
+divide it.</p>
+
+<p>Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child,
+and in no wise slay it she is the mother thereof.</p>

+
+<p>And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon; for he
+had heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his
+father: for Hiram was ever a lover of David.</p>
+
+<p>And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying, Thou knowest how that David
+my father could not build a house unto the name of the Lord his
+God for the wars which were about him on every side, until the
+Lord put them under the soles of his feet. But now the Lord my
+God hath given me rest on every side, so that there is neither
+adversary nor evil occurrent. And, behold: I purpose to build a
+house unto the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord spake unto
+David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne
+in thy room, he shall build a house unto my name. Now therefore
+command thou that they hew me cedar trees out of Lebanon; and my
+servants shall be with thy servants: and unto thee will I give
+hire for the servants according to all that thou shalt appoint:
+for thou knowest that there is not among us any that can skill to
+hew timber like unto the Sidonians.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of Solomon,
+that he rejoiced greatly and said, Blessed be the Lord this day,
+which hath given unto David a wise son over this great, people.
+And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, I have considered the things
+which thou sentest to me for: and I will do all thy desire
+concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber of fir: My
+servants shall bring them down from Lebanon unto the sea; and I
+will convey them by sea in floats unto the place that thou shalt
+appoint me, and will cause them to be discharged there, and thou
+shalt receive them: and thou shalt accomplish my desire, in
+giving food for my household.</p>
+
+<p>So Hiram gave Solomon cedar trees and fir trees according to
+all his desire.</p>
+
+<p>And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat for
+food to his household and twenty measures of pure oil: thus gave
+Solomon to Hiram year by year.</p>
+
+<p>And the Lord gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him: and
+there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a
+league together.</p>
+
+<p>And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy
+was thirty thousand men. And he sent them to Lebanon, ten
+thousand a month by courses: a month they were in Lebanon, and
+two months at home: and Adoniram was over the levy. And Solomon
+had three score and ten thousand that bare burdens, and fourscore
+thousand hewers in the mountains beside the chief of Solomon's
+officers which were over the work, three thousand and
+three-hundred, which ruled over the people that wrought in the
+work. And the king commanded and they brought great stones,
+costly stones, and hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the'
+house. And Solomon's builders, and Hiram's builders did hew them,
+and the stone-squarers; so they prepared timber and stones to

+<p>Now there dwelt an old prophet in Bethel; and his sons came
+and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day
+in Bethel: the words which he had spoken unto the king, them they
+told also to their father. And their father said unto them, What
+way went he? For his sons had seen what way the man of God went,
+which came, from Judah. And he said unto his sons, Saddle me the
+ass. So they saddled him the, ass: and he rode thereon, and went
+after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak: and he
+said unto him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah?
+And he said, I am. Then he said unto him, Come home with me, and
+eat bread. And he, said, I may not return with thee, nor go in
+with thee: neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in
+this place: for it was said to me by the word of the Lord, Thou
+shalt eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by
+the way that thou camest. He said unto him, I am a prophet also
+as thou art; and an angel spake unto me by the word of the Lord,
+saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house, that he may
+eat bread and drink water. But he lied unto him. So he went back
+with him, and did eat bread in his house, and drank water.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, as they sat at the table, that the word

+commanded thee, but camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk
+water in the place, of the which the Lord did say to thee, Eat no
+bread, and drink no water; thy carcass shall not come unto the

+
+<p>And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he
+had drunk, that he saddled for him the ass, to wit, for the
+prophet whom he had brought back.</p>
+
+<p>And when he was gone, a lion met him by the way, and slew him:
+and his carcass was cast in the way, and the ass stood by it, the
+lion also stood by the carcass.</p>
+
+<p>And, behold, men passed by, and saw the carcass cast in the
+way, and the lion standing by the carcass: and they came and told
+it in the city where the old prophet dwelt. And when the prophet
+that brought him back from the way heard thereof, he said, It is;
+the man of God, who was disobedient unto the word of the Lord:
+therefore the Lord hath delivered him unto the lion, which hath
+torn him, and slain him, according to the word of the Lord, which
+he spake unto him. And he spake to his sons, saying, Saddle me
+the ass. And they saddled him.</p>
+
+<p>And he went and found his carcass cast in the way, and the ass

+them, Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that 'ye go
+to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron? Now therefore thus
+saith the Lord, Thou; shalt not come down from that bed on which
+thou art gone up, but shalt surely die. And Elijah departed.</p>
+
+<p>And when the messengers turned back unto him, he said unto
+them, Why are ye now turned back? And they said unto him, There
+came a man up to meet us, and said unto us, Go, turn again unto

+leather about his loins. And he said, It is Elijah the

+
+<p>Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty.
+And he went up to him and, behold, he sat on the top of an hill.

+thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven and
+consumed him and his fifty.</p>
+
+<p>Again also he sent unto him another captain of fifty with his
+fifty. And he answered and said unto him, O man of God, thus hath

+unto them, If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven,
+and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down
+from heaven and consumed him and his fifty.</p>
+
+<p>And he sent again a captain of the third fifty with his fifty.
+And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his
+knees before Elijah, and besought him, and said unto him, O man
+of God, I pray thee, let my life, and the life of these fifty thy
+servants, be precious in thy sight. Behold, there came fire down
+from heaven, and burnt up the two captains of the former fifties
+with their fifties: therefore let my life now be precious in thy
+sight.</p>
+
+<p>And the angel of the lord said unto Elijah, Go down with him:
+be not afraid of him. And he arose, and went down with him unto
+the king. And he said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Forasmuch as
+thou hast sent messengers to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of
+Ekron, is it not because there is no God in Israel to enquire of
+his word? therefore thou shalt not come down off that bed on
+which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.</p>

+<p>Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favor
+in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be
+given me at my petition, and my people at my request: for we are
+sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to
+perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had
+held my tongue although the enemy could not countervail the
+king's damage.</p>
+
+<p>Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the
+queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his
+heart to do so?</p>
+
+<p>And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked
+Haman.</p>
+
+<p>Then, Haman was afraid before the king and the queen. And the
+king arising from the banquet of wine in his wrath went into the
+palace garden: and Haman stood up to make request for his life to
+Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined
+against him by the king.</p>
+
+<p>Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place
+of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the bed whereon
+Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also
+before me in the house?</p>
+
+<p>As the word went out of the king's mouth, they covered Haman's
+face. And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the
+king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had
+made for Mordecai, who had spoken good for the king, standeth in
+the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon.</p>
+
+<p>So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for
+Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified.&mdash;Esther vii.</p>

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+<h2>ISAIAH.</h2>

+
+<p>Isaiah (in Hebrew, Yeshayahu, "Salvation of God"), the
+earliest and most sublime of the four greater Hebrew prophets,
+was the son of Amoz (2 Kings xix, 2-20; Isaiah xxxvii, 2), and he
+uttered his oracles during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz,
+and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. The dates of his birth and death
+are unknown, but he lived from about 760 B.C. to about 700 B.C.
+He was married and had three sons&mdash;the children referred to in
+Isaiah viii, 18; and he appears to have resided near
+Jerusalem.</p>
+
+<p>But by most competent critics it is now held that the last
+twenty-seven chapters (40-66) of the book bearing his name were
+the work, not of the prophet, but of a later writer who is
+commonly styled the second or Deutero-Isaiah. In this portion of
+the book, Cyrus, who was not born till after 600 B.C., is
+mentioned by name (Isaiah, xliv, 28; xlv, i); and events which
+did not take place till a century after the prophet's death are
+referred to as happening contemporaneously with the writer's
+account of them. The style of these last twenty-seven chapters,
+also, is different, and the tone is more elevated and
+spiritual.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's ideal portrait is more suited to the second or
+pseudo-Isaiah, than to the real one.</p>

+<p>Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the king of Assyria,
+He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor
+come before it with shield, nor cast a bank against it. By the
+way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come
+into this city, saith the Lord. For I will defend this city, to
+save it, for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass that night that the angel of the Lord went
+out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore
+and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning,
+behold, they were all dead corpses.</p>
+
+<p>So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and
+returned, and dwelt at Nineveh. And it came to pass, as he was
+worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and
+Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword: and they escaped into
+the land of Armenia. And Esar-haddon his son reigned in his
+stead.&mdash;2 Kings xix, 32-37</p>

+
+<p>And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of
+Josiah king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the
+Lord, saying, Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all
+the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and
+against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake
+unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day. It may be
+that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to
+do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way;
+that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.</p>
+
+<p>Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch
+wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord, which
+he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book. Jeremiah xxxvi;
+1-4.</p>
+
+<p>The word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son
+of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth
+of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah
+king of Judah, saying, Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel,
+unto thee, O Baruch; thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the Lord
+hath added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I
+find no rest.</p>
+
+<p>Thus shalt thou say unto him, The Lord saith thus; Behold,
+that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have
+planted I will pluck up, even this whole land. And seekest thou
+great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will
+bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord: but thy life will I
+give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goesth.
+Jeremiah xlv, 1-5.</p>

+
+<p>Ezekiel, the third of the great Hebrew prophets, was the son
+of the priest Buzi. (Ezekiel i, 3). He was probably born about
+620 or 630 years before Christ, and was consequently a
+contemporary of Jeremiah and Daniel, to the latter of whom he
+alludes in chapters xiv, 14-20 and xxviii, 3. When Jerusalem was
+taken by Nebuchadnezzar in 597 B.C. (2 Kings xxiv, 8-16; Jeremiah
+xxix, 1-2; Ezekiel xvii, 12; xix, 9), Ezekiel was carried captive
+along with Jehoiachin, or Jeconiah, king of Judah, and thousands
+of other Jewish prisoners, to Babylonia, or as he himself calls
+it, "the land of the Chaldeans." (Ezekiel i, 3). Here, along with
+his exiled fellow-countrymen, he lived on the banks of the river
+Chebar (Ezekiel i, 1-3), in a house of his own (viii, i). Here
+also he married, and here, too, his wife, "the desire of his
+eyes," was taken from him "with a stroke" (Ezekiel xxiv, 15-18).
+His prophetic career extended over twenty-two years, from about
+592 B.C. to about 570 B.C.</p>
+
+<p>The book bearing his name is written in a mystical and
+symbolical style, and abounds with visions and difficult
+allegories which indicate on the part of the author the
+possession of a vivid and sublime imagination. Ezekiel's
+authorship of it has been questioned. The Talmud attributes it to
+the Great Synagogue, of which Ezekiel was not a member. It is
+divisible into two portions. The first (chapters i-xxiv) was
+written before, and the second (chapters xxv-xlviii) after, the
+destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar in 586 B.C, the
+eleventh year of the prophet's captivity (Ezekiel xxvi, 1-2; XI,
+i). The present text is very imperfect, being corrupted by the
+interpolation of glosses and other additions by later hands.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's picture represents the prophet uttering his oracles to
+his fellow-exiles ("them of the captivity"), or to the "elders of
+Judah," or "elders of Israel," on one of the occasions to which
+he himself alludes (viii, I; xi, 25; xiv, I; xx, I).</p>

+
+<p>The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the
+Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley
+which was full of bones, and caused me to pass by them round
+about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and,
+lo, they were very dry.</p>
+
+<p>And he said unto me; Son of man, can these bones live? And I
+answered, O Lord God, thou knowest.</p>
+
+<p>Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto
+them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Thus saith the
+Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter
+into you, and ye shall live: And I will lay sinews upon you, and
+will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put
+breath in you, and ye shall live and ye shall know that I am the
+Lord.</p>
+
+<p>So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there
+was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the, bones came together,
+bone to his bone. And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh
+came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was
+no breath in them.</p>
+
+<p>Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of
+man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the
+four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may
+live.</p>
+
+<p>So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into
+them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding
+great army.</p>
+
+<p>Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole
+house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our
+hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts. Therefore prophesy
+and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O my people,
+I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your
+graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. And ye shall know
+that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O my people,
+and brought you up out of your graves, and shall put my Spirit in
+you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land:
+then shall ye know that I the Lord have spoken it, and performed
+it, saith the Lord.&mdash;Ezekiel xxxvii, 1-14.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>Respecting the parentage or family of Daniel, the fourth of
+the great Hebrew prophets, nothing is known, though he appears to
+have been of noble if not of royal descent (Daniel i, 3). When,
+in the third year of the reign of King Jehoiakim (607, 606, 605,
+or 604 B.C.), Jerusalem was first taken by Nebuchadnezzar,
+Daniel, then a youth, was among the captives carried to Babylon.
+By the king's orders, he, with others of the Jewish youth, was
+educated for three years (Daniel i, 3-7). At this time Daniel
+acquired the power of interpreting dreams (i, 17), which he used
+with such advantage in expounding a dream of Nebuchadnezzar, that
+he was made ruler over the whole province of Babylon (Daniel ii,
+46-48). Daniel's interpretation of Belshazzar's famous vision
+having been fulfilled by the capture of Babylon by Darius, that
+conqueror promoted Daniel to the highest office in the kingdom
+(Daniel vi, 1-3). The prophet also prospered greatly during the
+reign of Cyrus (Daniel vi, 28).</p>
+
+<p>The book of Daniel is written partly in Chaldaic or Syriac
+(the vernacular Aramaic language spoken by the people of
+Palestine), and partly in sacred Hebrew. It is manifestly
+divisible into two portions. The first (chapters i-vi) narrating
+the details of the prophet's life, and the second (chapters
+vii-xii) setting forth his apocalyptic visions. Much doubt has
+been cast upon the authenticity of the work. The evident
+reference in the eleventh chapter to the conquest of Persia by
+Alexander the Great, which took place about 330 B.C., or more
+than two hundred years after Daniel flourished, has led many
+modern critics to believe that the work was composed in the time
+of the Maccabees.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's picture appears to be intended to represent the prophet
+meditating over one of the many visions which came to him.</p>

+<p>Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and
+accused the Jews. They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar,
+O king, live forever. There are certain Jews whom thou hast set
+over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach,
+and Abed-nego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they
+serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast
+set up.</p>
+
+<p>Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring
+Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then they brought these men
+before the king.</p>
+
+<p>Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O
+Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego? do not ye serve my gods, nor
+worship the golden image which I have set up? Now if ye be ready
+that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp,
+sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall
+down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye
+worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a
+burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you
+out of my hands?</p>
+
+<p>Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the
+king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this
+matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us
+from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of
+thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king,
+that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image
+which thou hast set up.</p>
+
+<p>Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his
+visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego:
+therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the
+furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated. And
+he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind
+Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, and to cast them into the
+burning fiery furnace.</p>
+
+<p>Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and
+their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the
+midst of the burning fiery furnace. Therefore because the king's
+commandment was urgent and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame
+of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and
+Abed-nego. And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego
+fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.</p>
+
+<p>Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in
+haste, and spake, and said unto his counselors, Did not we cast
+three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered, and
+said unto the king, True, O king.</p>
+
+<p>He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the
+midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the
+fourth is like the Son of God.</p>
+
+<p>Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning
+fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and
+Abed-nego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth and come
+hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, came forth of the
+midst of the fire. And the princes, governors, and captains, and
+the king's counselors, being gathered together, saw these men,
+upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was a hair of their
+head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of
+fire had passed on them.&mdash;Daniel iii, 8, 9, 12-27.</p>

+<h2>BELSHAZZAR'S FEAST.</h2>
+<br><br>
+<a href="images/051.jpg"><img alt="051th.jpg (39K)" src="images/051th.jpg" height="490" width="380"></a>
+</center>
+<br>
+
+<p>Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his
+lords, and drank wine before the thousand. Belshazzar, whiles he
+tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels
+which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which
+was in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and
+his concubines, might drink therein. Then they brought the golden
+vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God
+which was at Jerusalem; and the king, and his princes, his wives,
+and his concubines, drank in them. They drank wine and praised
+the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and
+of stone.</p>
+
+<p>In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote
+over against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the
+king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
+Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts
+troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and
+his knees smote one against another.</p>
+
+<p>[On the failure of his astrologers and soothsayers to
+interpret the writing, the king, at the suggestion of his queen,
+sends for Daniel, who interprets it as follows:]</p>
+
+<p>O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father
+a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honor: and for the majesty
+that he gave him, all peoples, nations, and languages, trembled
+and feared before him: whom he would he slew; and whom he would
+he kept alive; and whom he would he set up; and whom he would he
+put down. But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened
+in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took
+his glory from him and he was driven from the sons of men; and
+his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the
+wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was
+wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God
+ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it
+whomsoever he will.</p>
+
+<p>And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart,
+though thou knewest all this; but hast lifted up thyself against
+the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his
+house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy
+concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the
+gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which
+see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath
+is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified.</p>
+
+<p>Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing
+was written.</p>
+
+<p>And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL,
+UPHARSIN. This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath
+numbered thy kingdom and finished it. TEKEL; Thou art weighed in
+the balances, and art found wanting. PERES; Thy kingdom is
+divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.</p>
+
+<p>In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.
+And Darius the Median took the kingdom.&mdash;Daniel v.</p>

+<h2>DANIEL IN THE LIONS' DEN.</h2>
+<br><br>
+<a href="images/052.jpg"><img alt="052th.jpg (36K)" src="images/052th.jpg" height="484" width="375"></a>
+</center>
+<br>
+
+<p>Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into
+his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward
+Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and
+prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.</p>
+
+<p>Then these men assembled, and found Daniel praying and making
+supplication before his God. Then they came near, and spake
+before the king concerning the king's decree Hast thou not signed
+a decree, that every man that shall ask a petition of any God or
+man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into
+the den of lions.</p>
+
+<p>The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to
+the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.</p>
+
+<p>Then answered they and said before the king, That Daniel,
+which is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not
+thee, O king, nor the decree that thou hast signed, but maketh
+his petition three times a day.</p>
+
+<p>Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore displeased
+with himself, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him: and he
+laboured till the going down of the sun to deliver him.</p>
+
+<p>Then these men assembled unto the king, and said unto the
+king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is,
+That no decree nor statute which the king establisheth may be
+changed. Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel and
+cast him into the den of lions. Now the king spake and said unto
+Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will deliver
+thee. And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den
+and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet
+of his lords; that the purpose might not be changed concerning
+Daniel.</p>
+
+<p>Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night
+fasting: neither were instruments of musick brought before him:
+and his sleep went from him. Then the king arose very early in
+the morning, and went in haste unto the den of lions. And when he
+came to the den, he cried with a lamentable voice unto Daniel:
+and the king spake and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the
+living God, is thy God, whom thou servest continually, able to
+deliver thee from the lions?</p>
+
+<p>Then said Daniel unto the King, O king, live forever. My God
+hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they
+have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in
+me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.</p>
+
+<p>Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and commanded that
+they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up
+out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because
+he believed in his God. And the king commanded, and they brought
+those men which had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the
+den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the
+lions had the mastery of them, and brake all their bones in
+pieces or ever they came at the bottom of the den.&mdash;Daniel

+
+<p>Amos, one of the earliest of the Hebrew prophets, flourished
+during the reign of Uzziah, about 790 B.C., and was consequently
+a contemporary of Hosea and Joel. In his youth he lived at Tekoa,
+about six miles south of Bethlehem, in Judaea, and was a herdsman
+and a gatherer of sycamore fruit (Amos i, i; vii, 14). This
+occupation he gave up for that of prophet (vii, 15), and he came
+forward to denounce the idolatry then prevalent in Judah, Israel,
+and the surrounding kingdoms.</p>
+
+<p>The first six chapters of his book contain his denunciations
+of idolatry; the other three, his symbolical vision of the
+overthrow of the people of Israel, and a promise of their
+restoration. The style is remarkable for clearness and strength,
+and for its picturesque use of images drawn from the rural and
+pastoral life which the prophet had led in his youth.</p>

+
+<p>And the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time,
+saying, Arise, go unto to Nineveh, that great city, and preach
+unto it the preaching that I bid thee.</p>
+
+<p>So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word
+of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three
+days' journey. And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's
+journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh
+shall be overthrown.</p>
+
+<p>So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast,
+and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least
+of them. For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose
+from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him
+with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. And he caused it to be
+proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the
+king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor
+flock taste anything: let them not feed, nor drink water: but let
+man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto
+God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the
+violence that is in their hands. Who can tell if God will turn
+and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish
+not?</p>
+
+<p>And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way;
+and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do
+unto them; and he did it not.&mdash;Jonah iii.</p>

+<h2>DANIEL CONFOUNDING THE PRIESTS OF BEL.</h2>

+<br>
+
+<p>Now the Babylonians had an idol called Bel: and there were
+spent upon him every day, twelve great measures of fine flour,
+and forty sheep, and sixty vessels of wine. The king also
+worshipped him, and went every day to adore him: but Daniel
+adored his God. And the king said unto him: Why dost thou not
+adore Bel? And he answered, and said to him Because I do not
+worship idols made with hands, but the living God, that created
+heaven and earth, and hath power over all flesh. And the king
+said to him: Doth not Bel seem to thee to be a living God? Seest
+thou not how much he eateth and drinketh every day? Then Daniel
+smiled and said: O king, be not deceived: for this is but clay
+within, and brass without, neither hath he eaten at any time.</p>
+
+<p>And the king being angry called for his priests, and said to
+them: If you tell me not, who it is that eateth up these
+expenses, you shall die. But if you can show that Bel eateth
+these things, Daniel shall die, because he hath blasphemed
+against Bel.</p>
+
+<p>And Daniel said to the king: Be it done according to thy
+word.</p>
+
+<p>Now the priests of Bel were seventy besides their wives and
+little ones and children. And they went with Daniel into the
+temple of Bel. And the priests of Bel said: Behold, we go out:
+and do thou, O king, set on the meats, and make ready, the wine,
+and shut the door fast, and seal it with thy own ring: and when
+thou comest in the morning, if thou findest not that Bel hath
+eaten all up, we will suffer death, or else Daniel that hath lied
+against us.</p>
+
+<p>And they little regarded it, because they had made under the
+table a secret entrance, and they always came in by it, and
+consumed those things.</p>
+
+<p>So it came to pass after they were gone out, the king set the
+meats before Bel: and Daniel commanded his servants, and they
+brought ashes, and he sifted them all over the temple before the
+king: and going forth they shut the door, and having sealed it
+with the king's ring, they departed.</p>
+
+<p>But the priests went in by night, according to their custom,
+with their wives and their children: and they eat and drank all
+up.</p>
+
+<p>And the king rose early in the morning, and Daniel with him.
+And the king said: Are the seals whole, Daniel? and he answered:
+They are whole, O king. And as soon as he had opened the door,
+the king looked upon the table, and cried out with a loud voice
+Great art thou, O Bel, and there is not any deceit with thee. And
+Daniel laughed: and he held the king that he should not go in:
+and he said: Behold the pavement, mark whose footsteps these are.
+And the king said: I see the footsteps of men, and women, and
+children. And the king was angry. Then he took the priests, and
+their wives, and their children: and they showed him the private
+doors by which they came in, and consumed the things that were on
+the table.</p>
+
+<p>The king therefore put them to death, and delivered Bel into
+the power of Daniel: who destroyed him, and his temple.&mdash;Daniel
+xiv, I-21 (Douay Version).</p>

+
+<p>But Heliodorus executed that which he had resolved on, himself
+being present in the same place with his guard about the
+treasury.</p>
+
+<p>But the spirit of the Almighty God gave a great evidence of
+his presence, so that all that had presumed to obey him, falling
+down by the power of God, were struck with fainting and dread.
+For there appeared to them a horse with a terrible rider upon
+him, adorned with a very rich covering: and he ran fiercely and
+struck Heliodorus with his fore-feet, and he that sat upon him
+seemed to have armor of gold. Moreover, there appeared two other
+young men, beautiful and strong, bright and glorious, and in
+comely apparel: who stood by him, on either side, and scourged
+him without ceasing with many stripes.</p>
+
+<p>And Heliodorus suddenly fell to the ground, and they took him
+up covered with great darkness, and having put him into a litter
+they carried him out. So he that came with many servants, and all
+his guard into the aforesaid treasury, was carried out, no one
+being able to help him, the manifest power of God being known.
+And he indeed by the power of God lay speechless, and without all
+hope of recovery.&mdash;2 Maccabees iii, 23-29.</p>

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+
+<p>And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a
+decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.
+(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of
+Syria.) And all went to be taxed, every one into his own
+city.</p>
+
+<p>And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of
+Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called
+Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) to
+be taxed with Mary, his espoused wife, being great with child.
+And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were
+accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth
+her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid
+him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the
+inn.</p>
+
+<p>And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the
+field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the
+angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone
+round about them: and they were sore afraid: And the angel said
+unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of
+great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born
+this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the
+Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe
+wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly
+there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host
+praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on
+earth peace, good will toward men.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them
+into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go
+even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass,
+which the Lord hath made known unto us. And they came with haste,
+and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. And
+when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which
+was told them concerning this child. And all they that heard it,
+wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.
+But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
+And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all
+the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto
+them.</p>
+
+<p>And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of
+the child, his name was called Jesus, which was so named of the
+angel before he was conceived in the womb.&mdash;Luke ii.</p>

+
+<p>Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of
+Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to
+Jerusalem, saying, Where is he that born King of the Jews? for we
+have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.</p>
+
+<p>When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled,
+and all Jerusalem with him. And when he had gathered all the
+chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of
+them where Christ should be born. And they said unto him; In
+Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet, And
+thou Bethlehem! in the land of Juda, are not the least among the
+princes of Juda: for out of the shall come a Governor, that shall
+rule my people Israel.</p>
+
+<p>Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired
+of them diligently, what time the star appeared. And he sent them
+to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young
+child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I
+may come and worship him also. When they had heard the king, they
+parted; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went
+before them, till it came and stood over where the young child
+was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great
+joy.&mdash;Matthew ii, I-10.</p>

+
+<p>And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord
+appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young
+child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there
+until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to
+destroy him.</p>
+
+<p>When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by
+night, and departed into Egypt: and was there until the death of
+Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by
+the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.&mdash;Matthew

+
+<p>Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men,
+was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children
+that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two
+years old and under, according to the time which he had
+diligently enquired of the wise men.</p>
+
+<p>Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the
+prophet, saying, In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation,
+and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children,
+and would not be comforted, because they are not.&mdash;Matthew ii,

+
+<p>Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of
+the passover.</p>
+
+<p>And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem
+after the custom of the feast. And when they had fulfilled the
+days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in
+Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother, knew not of it. But they,
+supposing him to have been in the company, went a day's journey
+and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance. And
+when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem,
+seeking him.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in
+the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing
+them, and asking them questions. And all that heard him were
+astonished at his understanding and answers.</p>
+
+<p>And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said
+unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy
+father and I have sought thee sorrowing. And he said unto them,
+How is it that, ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my
+father's business? And they understood not the saying which he
+spake unto them.</p>
+
+<p>And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was
+subject unto them but his mother kept all these sayings in her
+heart.</p>

+
+<p>And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their
+synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing
+all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the
+people. And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought
+unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and
+torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those
+which were lunatic, and those that had the palsy;&mdash;and he healed
+them.&mdash;Matthew iv, 23&mdash;24.</p>

+
+<p>And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and
+when he was set, his disciples came unto him. And he opened his

+
+<p>And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the
+people were astonished at his doctrine: For he taught them as one

+Lord, save us: we perish. And he saith unto them, Why are ye

+<p>And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these

+were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and
+these mighty works? Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his
+mother called Mary? and his brethren James, and Joses, and Simon,
+and Judas? And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then

+
+<p>And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A

+sabbath day that which is not lawful?</p>
+
+<p>And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when

+him? How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar

+him? And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not
+man for the sabbath: Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the
+sabbath.&mdash;Mark ii, 23-28.</p>

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>

+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+<p>And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to
+pray. And when, even was come, the ship was in the midst of the
+sea, and he alone on the land. And he saw them toiling in rowing;
+for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourths watch
+of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and would
+have passed: by them. But when they saw him walking upon the sea,
+they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out: for they all
+saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them,
+and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not
+afraid.</p>
+
+<p>And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased:
+and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and
+wondered. For they considered not the miracle of the loaves; for
+their heart was hardened.&mdash;Mark vi, 46-52.</p>

+<p>And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to
+Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two
+disciples, saying unto them, Go into the village over against
+you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with
+her: loose them, and bring the unto me. And if any man say ought
+unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and
+straightway he will send them.</p>
+
+<p>All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken
+by the prophet, saying, Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy
+King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass'; and a colt
+the foal of an ass.</p>
+
+<p>And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them, and
+brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and
+they set him thereon.</p>
+
+<p>And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way;
+others cut down branches; from the trees, and strewed them in the
+way. And the multitudes that went before, and that followed,
+cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that
+cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.</p>
+
+<p>And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved,
+saying, Who is this? And the multitude said, This is Jesus the
+prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.&mdash;Matthew xxi, I-II.</p>

+
+<p>And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know
+that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not
+the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it
+lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? Shall we give, or shall
+we not give?</p>
+
+<p>But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye
+me? bring me a penny, that I may see it. And they brought it.</p>
+
+<p>And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and
+superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.</p>

+in much.</p>
+
+<p>And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two
+mites, which make a farthing. And he called unto him his
+disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this

+the treasury: for all they did cast in of their abundance; but
+she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her

+<br>
+
+<p>And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue,
+Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet, and
+besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the
+point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that
+she may be healed and she shall live. And Jesus went with him;
+and much people followed him, and thronged him.</p>
+
+<p>And a certain woman which had an issue of blood twelve years,
+and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent
+all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew,
+worse, when she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and
+touched his garment. For she said, If I may touch but his
+clothes, I shall be whole. And straightway the fountain of her
+blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed
+of that plague. And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that
+virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and
+said, Who touched my clothes? And his disciples said unto him,
+Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who
+touched me? And he looked round about to see her that had done
+this thing. But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was
+done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the
+truth. And he said unto her Daughter, thy faith hath made the
+whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.</p>
+
+<p>While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the
+synagogue's house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why
+troublest thou the Master any further? As soon as Jesus heard the
+word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue,
+Be not afraid, only believe. And he suffered no man to follow
+him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James. And he
+cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the
+tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly. And when he was
+come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the
+damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.
+But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the
+mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth
+in where the damsel was lying. And he took the damsel by the
+hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being
+interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise. And straightway the
+damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years.
+And they were astonished with a great astonishment.</p>
+
+<p>And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and
+commanded that something should be given her to eat.&mdash;Mark v,
+22-43.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who
+is my neighbor?</p>
+
+<p>And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from
+Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him
+of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half
+dead. And by chance there came down a certain priest that way:
+and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. And likewise
+a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and
+passed by on the other side. But a certain Samaritan, as he
+journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had
+compassion on him. And went to him, and bound up his wounds,
+pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and
+brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And on the morrow
+when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the
+host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou
+spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. Which now of
+these three, thinkest thou, was neighbor unto him that fell among
+the thieves?</p>
+
+<p>And he said, He that shewed mercy on him.</p>
+
+<p>Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.&mdash;Luke x,
+29-37.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the
+angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.</p>
+
+<p>And he said, a certain man had two sons: and the younger of
+them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods
+that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.</p>
+
+<p>And not many days after the younger son gathered all together,
+and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his
+substance with riotous living. And when he had spent all, there
+arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
+And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and
+he sent him into his fields to feed swine. And he would fain have
+filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no
+man gave unto him.</p>
+
+<p>And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants
+of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with
+hunger! I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him,
+Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, and am no
+more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired
+servants.</p>
+
+<p>And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a
+great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran,
+and fell on his neck, and kissed him. And the son said unto him,
+Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no
+more worthy to be called thy son. But the father said to his
+servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a
+ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: And bring hither the
+fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: for this
+my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.
+And they began to be merry.</p>
+
+<p>Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew
+nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing. And he called one
+of the servants, and asked what these things meant.</p>
+
+<p>And he said unto him, thy brother is come; and thy father hath
+killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and
+sound.</p>
+
+<p>And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his
+father out, and intreated him. And he answering said to his
+father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither
+transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never
+gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends: but as
+soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living
+with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.</p>
+
+<p>And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that
+I have is thine. It was meet that we should make merry, and be
+glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was
+lost, and is found.&mdash;Luke xv, 10-32</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and
+fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:</p>
+
+<p>And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid
+at his gate, full of sores, and desiring to be fed with the
+crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs
+came and licked his sores.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by
+the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was
+buried; and in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and
+seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried
+and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus,
+that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my
+tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.</p>
+
+<p>But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime
+receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but
+now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this,
+between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they
+which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass
+to us, that would come from thence.</p>
+
+<p>Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou
+wouldest send him to my father's house: for I have five brethren;
+that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this
+place of torment.</p>
+
+<p>Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let
+them hear them.</p>
+
+<p>And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them
+from the dead, they will repent.</p>
+
+<p>And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets,
+neither will they be persuaded though one rose from the
+dead.&mdash;Luke xvi, 19-31</p>

+
+<p>And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in
+themselves that they were righteous, and despised others.</p>
+
+<p>Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee,
+and the other a publican; The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with
+himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are,
+extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I
+fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess. And
+the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up as much as his
+eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be
+merciful to me a sinner. I tell you, this man went down to his
+house justified rather than the other: for every: one that
+exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself
+shall be exalted. Luke xviii, 9-14.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar,
+near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
+Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with
+his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth
+hour. There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith
+unto her, Give me to drink.</p>
+
+<p>(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy
+meat.)</p>
+
+<p>Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou,
+being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for
+the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.</p>
+
+<p>Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of
+God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou
+wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living
+water.</p>
+
+<p>The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with,
+and the well is deep from whence then hast thou that living
+water? Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the
+well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his
+cattle?</p>
+
+<p>Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this
+water shall thirst again but whosoever drinketh of the water that
+I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall
+give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into
+everlasting life.</p>
+
+<p>The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I
+thirst not, neither come hither to draw.</p>
+
+<p>Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
+The woman answered and said, I have no husband.</p>
+
+<p>Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
+for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not
+thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.</p>
+
+<p>The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a
+prophet. Our fathers worshiped in this mountain; and ye say, that
+in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.</p>
+
+<p>Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when
+ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship
+the Father. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship;
+for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is,
+when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and
+in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a
+Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and
+in truth.</p>
+
+<p>The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is
+called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.</p>
+
+<p>Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.</p>
+
+<p>And upon this came his disciples, and marveled that he talked
+with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why
+talkest thou with her?</p>
+
+<p>The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the
+city, and saith to the men, Come, see a man, which told me all
+things, that ever I did: is not this the Christ? Then they went
+out of the city, and came unto him.&mdash;John iv 5-30</p>

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+<p>Jesus went unto the mount of Olives. And early in the morning
+he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him;
+and he sat down, and taught them.</p>
+
+<p>And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken
+in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, they say
+unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very
+act. Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be
+stoned: but what sayest thou? This they said, tempting him, that
+they might have to accuse him.</p>
+
+<p>But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the
+ground, as though he heard them not.</p>
+
+<p>So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and
+said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first
+cast a stone at her.</p>
+
+<p>And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.</p>
+
+<p>And they which heard it, being convicted by their own
+conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even
+unto the last; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing
+in the midst. When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but
+the woman, he said unto her, Woman where are those thine
+accusers? Hath no man condemned thee? She said, No man, Lord.</p>
+
+<p>And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and
+sin no more. &mdash;john viii, 1-11</p>

+
+<p>Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that
+place where Martha met him. The Jews then which were with her in
+the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose
+up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the
+grave to weep there. Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and
+saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if
+thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.</p>
+
+<p>When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also
+weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was
+troubled, and said, Where have ye laid him?</p>
+
+<p>They said unto him, Lord, come and see.</p>
+
+<p>Jesus wept.</p>
+
+<p>Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him! And some of them
+said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind,
+have caused that even this man should not have died?</p>
+
+<p>Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave.
+It was a cave and a stone lay upon it. Jesus said, Take ye away
+the stone.</p>
+
+<p>Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord,
+by this time he stinketh for he hath been dead four days.</p>
+
+<p>Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou
+wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?</p>
+
+<p>Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead
+was laid.</p>
+
+<p>And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee
+that thou hast heard me. And I knew that thou hearest me always:
+but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may
+believe that thou hast sent me.</p>
+
+<p>And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice,
+Lazarus, come forth.</p>
+
+<p>And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with
+graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin.</p>
+
+<p>Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.</p>
+
+<p>Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the
+things which Jesus did, believed on him.&mdash;John xi, 30-45</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>Of Mary "called Magdalene" (Luke viii, 2) but few particulars
+are recorded in scripture. We first hear of her as having been
+delivered by Jesus of seven devils (Luke viii, 1-3; Mark xvi, 9).
+Impelled, no doubt, by gratitude for her deliverance, she becomes
+one of his followers, accompanying him thenceforward in all his
+wanderings faithfully till his death. She was the first person to
+whom he appeared after his resurrection (Mark xvi, 9; John xx, 1,
+11-18) The common belief that she was a fallen woman is destitute
+of the slightest foundation. On the contrary, the references to
+her as being in the company of such women as Joanna, the wife of
+Herod's steward, Salome, the mother of James and John, and Mary,
+the mother of Jesus (Luke viii, 3; Mark xvi, 40; John xix, 25),
+strongly discountenance such a supposition. The error, which had
+no other source than ecclesiastical tradition, has been fostered
+and perpetuated by the stupid blunder of the translators of the
+authorized version in identifying her with the "sinner" who is
+described in Luke vii, 37-50 as washing the feet of Jesus with
+her tears (see head-note to Luke vii).</p>
+
+<p>The Roman Catholic notion that this "sinner" was Mary the
+sister of Lazarus is almost equally groundless (see Douay Bible,
+head-note to Matthew xxvi, and the foot-note references to Luke
+vii, 37, found in most Catholic Bibles). The only reason for this
+identification is that the anointing by the "sinner" is described
+as taking place in the house of a Pharisee named Simon (Luke vii,
+36, 39-40 43-44); that the anointing by the unnamed woman, as
+described in Matthew xxvi, 6-13 and Mark xiv, 3-9, took place in
+the house of one "Simon the leper," in Bethany; and that Mary,
+the sister of Lazarus, is described in John xi, 2, and xii, 3-8,
+as anointing Jesus in a house (apparently that of Lazarus
+himself) in Bethany, when a conversation ensues altogether
+different from that recorded in Luke vii, but similar to that
+related in Matthew xxvi, and Mark xiv, save that the objection to
+the anointing of Jesus is made, not by "his disciples" (Matthew
+xxvi, 8), not by "some that had indignation" (Mark xiv, 4), but
+by "one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son" (John xii,
+4). The demeanor of Mary, the sister of Lazarus, is, however, by
+no means that of a fallen and sinful though penitent woman but
+that of a pious and good one (see Luke x, 39, 42; John xi, 28-33;
+xii, 3).</p>
+
+<p>Dore's illustration, which portrays Mary Magdalene as a
+heartbroken and despairing sinner, shows that he has fallen into
+the common error.</p>

+<h2>THE LAST SUPPER.</h2>

+<br>
+
+<p>Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the
+disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we
+prepare for thee to eat the passover? And he said, Go into the
+city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time
+is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my
+disciples. And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and
+they made ready the passover.</p>
+
+<p>Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve. And
+as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you
+shall betray me.</p>
+
+<p>And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them
+to say unto him, Lord, is it I?</p>
+
+<p>And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in
+the dish, the same shall betray me. The Son of man goeth as it is
+written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is
+betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.
+Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it
+I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.</p>
+
+<p>And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and
+brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this
+is my body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to
+them, saying, Drink ye all of it; for this is my blood of the new
+testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But
+I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the
+vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's
+kingdom.</p>
+
+<p>And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount
+of Olives.&mdash;Matthew xxvi, 17-30.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of
+Olives; and his disciples all followed him. And when he was at
+the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not in
+temptation.</p>
+
+<p>And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and
+kneeled down, and prayed Saying, Father, if thou be willing,
+remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be
+done.</p>
+
+<p>And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven,
+strengthening him.</p>
+
+<p>And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat
+was as it were great drops, of blood falling down to the
+ground.</p>
+
+<p>And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his
+disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, and said unto them,
+Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation&mdash;Luke
+xxii, 39-46.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane,
+and saith unto, the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray
+yonder. And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee,
+and began to be sorrowful and very heavy. Then saith he unto
+them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye
+here, and watch with me.</p>
+
+<p>And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and
+prayed, saying, O my Father, if be possible, let this cup pass
+from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.</p>
+
+<p>And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and
+saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
+Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation the spirit
+indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.</p>
+
+<p>He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my
+Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it,
+thy will be done.</p>
+
+<p>And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were
+heavy.</p>
+
+<p>And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third
+time, saying the same words.</p>
+
+<p>Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on
+now, and take your rest behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son
+of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. Rise let us be
+going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me. Matthew xxvi,

+
+<p>And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on
+now, and take your rest it is enough, the hour is come; behold,
+the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. Rise up,
+let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.</p>
+
+<p>And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the
+twelve, and with him great multitude with swords and staves, from
+the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. And he that
+betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall
+kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely. And as
+soon as he was come, he goeth straight way to him, and saith,
+Master, master; and kissed him.</p>
+
+<p>And they laid their hands on him, and took him. And one of
+them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high
+priest, and cut off his ear. And Jesus answered and said unto
+them, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and with
+staves to take me? I was daily with you in the temple teaching,
+and ye took me not but the scriptures must be fulfilled.</p>
+
+<p>And they all forsook him, and fled.&mdash;Mark xiv, 41-50.</p>

+
+<p>The incident depicted in this illustration seems to be as
+apocryphal as that embodied in the artist's picture of Mary
+Magdalene. There is absolutely no warrant in scripture for the
+notion that Christ fainted under the burden of the cross. The
+only foundation for such an idea to found in the Bible is
+contained in the head note to Mark xv, which is quite unwarranted
+by the text. According to the three synoptic gospels the cross
+was borne not by Christ, but by Simon, a Cyrenian (see Matthew
+xxvii, 32; Mark xv, 2 1; Luke xxiii, 26). According to the fourth
+evangelist, Jesus bore the cross without assistance the whole
+distance to the place crucifixion (John xix, 16-18). In not one
+of the four narratives is there so much as a hint that he fainted
+under the burden.</p>

+<p>And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is

+And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots:
+that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They
+parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast
+lots. And sitting down they watched him there; and set up over
+his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE

+
+<p>Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the

+
+<p>Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land
+unto the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a
+loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say,
+My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?</p>
+
+<p>Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said,
+This man calleth for Elias. And straightway one of them ran, and
+took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed,
+and gave him to drink. The rest said, Let be, let us see whether
+Elias will come to save him.</p>
+
+<p>Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up
+the ghost.</p>
+
+<p>And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the
+top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
+and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which
+slept arose, and came out of the graves after his resurrection,
+and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.</p>
+
+<p>Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching
+Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they
+feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.</p>
+
+<p>And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed
+Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him: among which was Mary
+Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother
+of Zebedee's children.&mdash;Matthew xxvii, 45-56.</p>

+
+<p>This volume, as its title indicates, is a collection of
+engravings illustrative of the Bible&mdash;the designs being all from
+the pencil of the greatest of modern delineators, Gustave Dore.
+The original work, from which this collection has been made, met
+with an immediate and warm recognition and acceptance among those
+whose means admitted of its purchase, and its popularity has in
+no wise diminished since its first publication, but has even
+extended to those who could only enjoy it casually, or in
+fragmentary parts. That work, however, in its entirety, was far
+too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's
+admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this
+class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs
+upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally,
+this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has
+been to introduce subjects of general interest&mdash;that is, those
+relating to the most prominent events and personages of
+Scripture&mdash;those most familiar to all readers; the plates being
+chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American
+people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press&mdash;in,
+narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the
+design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the
+work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful
+scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the
+undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its
+success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and
+execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and
+friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish
+to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of
+illustrations upon sacred themes.</p>
+<br><br><br><br>
+<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center>
+<br>
+<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and
+variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age
+when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and
+are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and
+the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and
+scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing
+wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He
+has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before
+unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before
+unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius,
+explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened
+new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To
+the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius,
+bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a
+fuller life.</p>
+
+<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of
+life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic,
+attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be
+found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of
+admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of
+almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the
+human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various
+beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the
+treasure&mdash;house that his genius is constantly augmenting with
+fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent
+traits we will refer&mdash;his wonderful rendering of the powers of
+Nature.</p>
+
+<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the
+Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind.
+There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight
+of wood and valley, mountain&mdash;pass and rich ravine, whose variety
+of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has
+caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand
+upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and
+truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest
+scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so
+patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the'
+gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie
+slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine,
+either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some
+rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own,
+he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of
+angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or
+heavens serene and fair&mdash;another kingdom to his teeming art,
+after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p>
+
+<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January
+10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At
+eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic
+creation&mdash;a set' of lithographs, published in his native city.
+The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at
+the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when
+his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given
+to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with
+which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were
+published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and
+those for "The Wandering Jew "&mdash;the first humorous and grotesque
+in the highest degree&mdash;indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to
+fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles,
+shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and
+terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could
+possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of
+the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power.
+These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which
+was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p>
+
+<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her
+in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest
+achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at
+home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for
+"Atala," "London&mdash;a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don
+Quixote."</p>
+
+<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the
+fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had
+ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly
+incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook&mdash;some
+single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations&mdash;will
+give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already
+mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais,
+Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner,
+Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables,"
+and others still.</p>
+
+<p>Take one of these works&mdash;the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don
+Quixote"&mdash;and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor
+involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality
+of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems
+prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter
+or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an
+illustrator.</p>
+
+<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful
+in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill
+as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed
+with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a
+musician.</p>
+
+<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his
+mother&mdash;married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His
+death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p>

+
+<p>When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea,
+named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple he went to
+Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the
+body to be delivered. And when Joseph had taken the body, he
+wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and laid it in his own new
+tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great
+stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.</p>
+
+<p>And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over
+against the sepulchre.&mdash;Matthew xxvii, 57-61</p>

+
+<p>In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the
+first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to
+see the sepulchre.</p>
+
+<p>And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of
+the Lord descended from, heaven, and came and rolled back the
+stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like
+lightning, and his raiment white as snow: and for fear of him the
+keepers did shake, and became as dead men.</p>
+
+<p>And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye:
+for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not
+here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the
+Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen
+from the dead and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee;
+there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.</p>
+
+<p>And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and
+great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.&mdash;Matthew

+<br>
+
+<p>And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village
+called Emmaus which was from Jerusalem about threescore
+furlongs.</p>
+
+<p>And they talked together of all these things which had
+happened. And it came to pass that, while they communed together
+and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near and went with them. But
+their eyes were holden that they should not know him.</p>
+
+<p>And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these
+that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?</p>
+
+<p>And the one of them, whose, name was Cleopas, answering said
+unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not
+known the things which are come to pass there in these days?</p>
+
+<p>And he said unto them, What things?</p>
+
+<p>And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which
+was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the
+people: And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to
+be condemned to death, and have crucified him. But we trusted
+that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside
+all this, to-day is the third day since these things were done.
+Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished,
+which were early at the sepulchre; and when they found not his
+body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of
+angels, which said that he was alive. And certain of them which
+were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the
+women had said: but him they saw not.</p>
+
+<p>Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe
+all that the prophets have spoken: ought not Christ to have
+suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?</p>
+
+<p>And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto
+them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.</p>
+
+<p>And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he
+made as though he would have gone further. But they constrained
+him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day
+is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.</p>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took
+bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. And their
+eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their
+sight.</p>
+
+<p>And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within
+us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us
+the scriptures?</p>
+
+<p>And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and
+found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
+saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.</p>
+
+<p>And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was
+known of them in breaking of bread.&mdash;Luke xxiv, 13-35.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning,
+they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had
+prepared, and certain others with them. And they found the stone
+rolled away from the sepulchre.</p>
+
+<p>And they remembered his words. And returned from the
+sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all
+the rest. * * *</p>
+
+<p>And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village
+called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore
+furlongs. And they talked together of all these things which had
+happened. * * *</p>
+
+<p>And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and
+found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
+saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon. And
+they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known
+of them in breaking of bread. And as they thus spake, Jesus
+himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be
+unto you. * * *</p>
+
+<p>And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but
+tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power
+from on high.</p>
+
+<p>And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his
+hands, and blessed them. And it came to pass, while he blessed
+them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven. And
+they worshiped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy.
+Luke xxiv, 1-2, 8-9, 13-14, 33-36, 49-52.</p>
+
+<p>The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that
+Jesus began both to do and teach, until the day in which he was
+taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given
+commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen: to whom also
+he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible
+proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things
+pertaining to the kingdom of God: and, being assembled together
+with them, commanded them that they should not depart from
+Jerusalem, but, wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith
+he, ye have heard of me. For John truly baptized with water; but
+ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.</p>
+
+<p>When they therefore were come together, they asked of him,
+saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom of
+Israel? And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the
+times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
+But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come
+upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem,
+and all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of
+the earth.</p>
+
+<p>And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was
+taken up: and a cloud received him out of their sight. And while
+they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two
+men stood by them in white apparel.&mdash;Acts i, 1-10</p>

+</center>
+<br>
+
+<p>And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and
+miracles among the people.</p>
+
+<p>Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the
+synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and
+of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen. And they
+were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he
+spake. Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him
+speak blasphemous words against Moses and against God. And they
+stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came
+upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council. And set
+up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak
+blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law: for we
+have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy
+this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered
+us.</p>
+
+<p>And all that sat in the council, looking steadfastly on him,
+saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.</p>
+
+<p>Then said the high priest, Are these things so?</p>
+
+<p>And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken: [Stephen
+here makes his defense, concluding with a terrible, denunciation
+of the Jews as being stiffnecked and persecutors of their
+prophets, and as betrayers and murderers of Jesus Christ.]</p>
+
+<p>When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and
+they, gnashed on him with their teeth.</p>
+
+<p>But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up steadfastly
+into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the
+right hand of God, and said, Behold, I see the heavens opened,
+and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.</p>
+
+<p>Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears,
+and ran upon him with one accord, and cast him out of, the city,
+and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a
+young man's feet, whose name was Saul. And they stoned Stephen,
+calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.</p>
+
+<p>And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay
+not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell
+asleep.</p>
+
+<p>And Saul was consenting unto his death.&mdash;Acts vi, 8-15; vii,
+1-2, 54-56; viii, 1.</p>

+<br>
+
+<p>And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against
+the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, and desired
+of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found
+any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring
+them bound unto Jerusalem.</p>
+
+<p>And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there
+shined round about him a light from heaven: and he fell to the
+earth, and heard a voice, saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why
+persecutest thou me? And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the
+Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest it is hard for thee
+to kick against the pricks. And he trembling and astonished said,
+Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him,
+Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou
+must do.</p>
+
+<p>And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing
+a voice, but seeing no man.</p>
+
+<p>And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened,
+he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into
+Damascus. And he was three days without sight, and neither did
+eat nor drink.</p>
+
+<p>And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias;
+and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said,
+Behold, I am here, Lord.</p>
+
+<p>And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street
+which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for
+one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth, and hath
+seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his
+hand on him, that he might receive his sight. Then Ananias
+answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil
+he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem: and here he hath
+authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy
+name. But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen
+vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings,
+and the children of Israel: for I will shew him how great things
+he must suffer for my name's sake.</p>
+
+<p>And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and
+putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even
+Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hash
+sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with
+the Holy Ghost. And immediately there fell from his eyes as it
+had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose and
+was baptized. And when he had received meat, he was
+strengthened.</p>
+
+<p>Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at
+Damascus. And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues,
+that he is the Son of God.&mdash;Acts ix, 1-20.</p>

+<h2>THE DELIVERANCE OF ST. PETER.</h2>

+
+<p>Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands
+to vex certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of
+John with the sword.</p>
+
+<p>And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further
+to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.) And
+when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered
+him to four quarternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after
+Easter to bring him forth to the people.</p>
+
+<p>Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made
+without ceasing of the church unto God for him.</p>
+
+<p>And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night
+Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains:
+and the keepers before the door kept the prison. And, behold, the
+angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the
+prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up,
+saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
+And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy
+sandals: And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment
+about thee, and follow me. And he went out, and followed him; and
+wist not that it was true which was done by the angel but thought
+he saw a vision. When they were past the first and the second
+ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city;
+which opened to them of his own accord and they went out and
+passed on through one street and forthwith the angel departed
+from him.</p>
+
+<p>And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a
+surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me
+out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the
+people of the Jews.&mdash;Acts xii, 1-11</p>

+<h2>PAUL AT EPHESUS.</h2>

+<br>
+
+<p>And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul
+having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus; and
+finding certain disciples, he said unto them, Have ye, received
+the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have
+not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. And he,
+said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said,
+Unto John's baptism. Then said Paul, John verily baptized with
+the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they
+should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on
+Christ Jesus.</p>
+
+<p>When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the
+Lord Jesus. And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy
+Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
+And all the men were about twelve.</p>
+
+<p>And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space
+of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning
+the kingdom of God.</p>
+
+<p>But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake
+evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and
+separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one
+Tyrannus. And this continued by the space of two years; so that
+all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus,
+both Jews and Greeks.</p>
+
+<p>And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: so that
+from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons,
+and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went
+out of them.</p>
+
+<p>Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them
+to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord
+Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. And
+there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the
+priests, which did so. And the evil spirit answered and said,
+Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? And the man in
+whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and
+prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked
+and wounded.</p>
+
+<p>And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at
+Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord
+Jesus was magnified. And many that believed came, and confessed,
+and shewed their deeds. Many of them also which used curious arts
+brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and
+they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand
+pieces of silver.</p>
+
+<p>So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.&mdash;Acts xix,
+1&mdash;20.</p>

+<h2>PAUL MENACED BY THE JEWS.</h2>

+
+<p>Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men which
+have a vow on them; them take, and purify thyself with them, and
+be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all
+may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning
+thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly,
+and keepest the law.</p>
+
+<p>Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself
+with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment
+of the days of purification, until that an offering should be
+offered for every one of them.</p>
+
+<p>And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews which were
+of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the
+people, and laid hands on him, crying out, Men of Israel, help:
+this is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the
+people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks
+also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place. (For
+they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian,
+whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)</p>
+
+<p>And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and
+they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the
+doors were shut. And as they went about to kill him, tidings came
+unto the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an
+uproar: who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran
+down unto them and when they saw the chief captain and the
+soldiers, they left beating of Paul. Then the chief captain came
+near, and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two
+chains; and demanded who he was, and what he had done. And some
+cried one thing, some another, among the multitude: and when he
+could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to
+be carried into the castle. And when he came upon the stairs, so
+it was, that he was borne of the soldiers for the violence of the
+people. For the multitude of the people followed after, crying,
+Away with him.</p>
+
+<p>And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the
+chief captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst thou speak
+Greek? Art not thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest
+an uproar, and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men
+that were murderers? But Paul said, I am a man which am a Jew of
+Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I
+beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people.</p>
+
+<p>And when he had given him license, Paul stood on the stairs,
+and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was
+made a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew
+tongue.&mdash;Acts xxi, 23-40.</p>

+
+<p>And while the day was coming on, Paul besought them all to
+take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye have
+tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing. Wherefore I
+pray you to take some meat; for this is for your health: for
+there shall not a hair fall from the head of any of you.</p>
+
+<p>And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to
+God in presence of them all; and when he had broken it, he began
+to eat. Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some
+meat.</p>
+
+<p>And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and
+sixteen souls.</p>
+
+<p>And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and
+cast out the wheat into the sea. And when it was day, they knew
+not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore,
+into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust
+in the ship. And when they had taken up the anchors, they
+committed themselves unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands,
+and hoised up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore.
+And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship
+aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmovable, but
+the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves. And
+the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them
+should swim out, and escape. But the centurion, willing to save
+Paul, kept them from their purpose; and commanded that they which
+could swim should cast themselves first into the sea, and get to
+land: and the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of
+the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to
+land.</p>
+
+<p>And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was
+called Melita.</p>
+
+<p>And the barbarous people shewed us no little kindness: for
+they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the
+present rain, and because of the cold.&mdash;Acts xxvii, 33-44;
