Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Bible Stories From the Old Testament
I N preparing this book of Bible stories the writer has had but one purpose above all others, to present to the childish mind the old Biblical tales without the sense of injustice and cruelty Which were unfortunately impressed upon her own mind in the days when she pored over the family Bible, studying the pictures of Adam and Eve being driven out of Eden, of Cain being chastised by God, of the ?ood, of Abraham ready to plunge the knife into Isaac's innocent body, and spelling out a sentence here and there which, to her untaught, unguided mind, seemed to speak only of God's anger, God's vengeance, God's wrath, God's jealousy.
