Excerpt from The Devotional Use of the Holy Scriptures
As the object has been not only to help those who read the Bible devotionally, but to induce others to begin, it has been thought well to deal with the fundamental principles of the devout life. This is done in the first four chapters; but those who wish only the practical directions may pass these and begin at the fifth chapter.
