In a day when so much has been written on almost every Scripture subject it requires some apology for offering anything further; but as different trains of thought are more suited to one than another, they may serve as useful remembrancers, although there may be nothing particularly new about them. The writer of the following pages, being in the evening of life and much retired from its active duties by failing health, often endeavours to look through the lengthening shadows of the evening to the glory which shall be revealed, and delights to ponder over those passages of Holy Writ which form the basis of our faith in Christ. The following pages make no attempt at scholarship. The author thankfully accepts and believes the revelation which God has given us in Holy Scripture, and has endeavoured to set forth a plain _scriptural_ statement of the successive steps or development of that revelation, culminating in the Gospel of Christ.
