JESSE LYMAN HURLBUT, D.D. + + + + + COPYRIGHTED 1907 + BY + THE JOHN C. WINSTON CO. + + * * * * * + +PRINTED IN U.S.A. + + + + +PREFACE. + + +This lesson-book was prepared in order to meet a need realized in my own +work as a pastor; a need which is felt by many pastors and workers among +the young. + +In the Home, Sunday-School and Church are children of all ages, from six +to sixteen. It is found impracticable to give to all this varied company +the same teaching. The lessons that are admirably adapted for boys and +girls between ten and fifteen are utterly unsuited to the children +between six and ten. Moreover after looking carefully, I have not been +able to find satisfactory lessons which can be taught to the young +children except by one especially trained for the work; and such +instructions are hard to find. + +After various experiments I adopted in my own teaching the following +plan. We divided the children into two sections; the First Section +including all over nine years old, the Second Section all those under +nine. + +I selected for twelve lessons, twelve Bible stories following in +succession, beginning with the story of Adam and Eve. On each of these +stories I prepared a catechism of very simple questions and answers, and +printed them by a duplicating process. After the opening of "The +Children's Hour," I told the story to all present in simple language, +explaining that while the story was told to all it was for the special +benefit of the smaller children; but =I noticed even the oldest boys and +girls listened to it with interest equal to the youngest=. + +After the Bible story and the singing of a hymn, the Second Section +withdrew to another room. There the children were divided into classes, +and taught the questions and answers. A copy of the leaflet containing +the questions and answers of the story for the day was given to each +child, to be taken home and reviewed by parents or the older members of +the family. + +By separating the children into two grades, the older young people can +receive instruction suited to their age, and the little ones are also +provided for. + +So many pastors and others have requested copies of the leaflets +containing the questions and answers, that it has seemed desirable to +publish them; and they are now completed upon the entire Bible story, +and brought together in book form for the use of teachers of children. + +These lessons may be used in classes of the Sunday School, by teachers +who desire a more consecutive treatment of the Bible story than is given +in the International Sunday School lessons, and by parents. + +There are many families where "The Story of the Bible" has been read to +the interest and profit of the children. Parents will find that these +lessons will help to fix the important facts of the Bible story in the +minds of the little ones. + +It will be seen that the questions and answers do not embrace all the +stories in the book. A selection has been made of what seem to be the +most important subjects, affording weekly lessons for one year, with +allowance for vacations, in the Old Testament, and another year in the +New Testament. + +In the hope that these lessons may aid the children of to-day, who are +to be the men and women of to-morrow, to gain a definite knowledge of +the Word of God these lessons are sent forth. + + JESSE LYMAN HURLBUT. + + + + +SUGGESTIONS FOR TEACHING. + + +1. Let the teacher in advance read over the questions and answers of the +lesson, note their relation to the story as told in "The Story of the +Bible," and to some extent fit the story to the lesson which is to be +taught. + +2. Tell the story (or stories) of the day's lesson to the children, +following the plan given in the book. Use very simple words and avoid +all that are in any sense technical, or above the mind of a child. + +3. After telling the story for the day, the children may be divided into +classes, and assistants may teach the questions and answers. But before +the close of the session it would be well to ask all the questions, and +have the answers given by the children. + +4. In order to complete each course, in the Old Testament and in the +New, within a year, it may be necessary to omit some of the lessons, +where classes take a vacation in the summer. To complete the course of +each year in such classes the Reviews at the end of each series of +lessons might be omitted, although they will be valuable as summaries of +the important facts of the lesson. Some teachers might prefer to omit +from the Old Testament lessons, some of the following in order to +complete the course in a year. Lesson XXVIII David and Absalom; XXX The +Temple; XXXVI Elisha and Jonah; XXXVIII, XXXIX The Kings of Judah; XLIV +Queen Esther. These are suggested for omission not because they are +unimportant or uninteresting, but in case some lessons must be omitted. +In order to complete the course in one year in the New Testament +lessons, the following might be omitted, if some must be. XVI The +Mothers Prayer; XX The Good Shepherd; XXIII Jesus and the Children; +XXVI, XXVII The Last Teachings. + + + + +OLD TESTAMENT LESSONS. + + + + +PART FIRST.--FROM ADAM TO MOSES. + + +Lesson I. The Beautiful Garden. + +(Tell Story 1 in "Hurlbut's Story of the Bible.") + +=To the Teacher:= + +Under the title of each lesson throughout these pages will be seen +instructions to tell certain lessons, with numbers. These numbered +lessons and parts correspond with the numbered lessons and parts in +"Hurlbut's Story of the Bible." + +Let the teacher begin by asking, "Who can tell us what is the first +verse of the Bible?" When hands are raised, call on three or four +children to repeat the verse in turn; then let all the class repeat it +in concert. Explain what the verse means, that God made the world, and +all the things in it. Tell the story of the creation of the world; of +the first man and the first woman; the Garden of [=E]´d[)e]n, and how +[)A]d´[)a]m and [=E]ve lost their home, and were driven out. Then teach +the class the answers to the following questions. At the close of the +lesson, see that every young pupil is shown just where the questions and +answers on the lesson are found. The answers should be reviewed by +parents, or older brothers and sisters, until the child can repeat them +thoroughly, and can tell in his own language, the story of the lesson. + + +Questions and Answers. + +=1.= What is the first verse in the Bible? ="In the beginning God +created the heavens and the earth."= + +=2.= What does this mean? =That God made all things.= + +=3.= In how many days does the Bible tell us that God made the world? +=In six days.= + +=4.= On what day did God rest from his work? =On the seventh day.= + +=5.= Whom did God make as the first man? =[)A]d´[)a]m.= + +=6.= Who was the first woman? =[=E]ve.= + +=7.= What place did God give to [)A]d´[)a]m and [=E]ve as their home? +=The garden of [=E]´d[)e]n.= + +=8.= How long did [)A]d´[)a]m and [=E]ve live in the beautiful garden? +=As long as they did what God told them to do.= + +=9.= What became of them when they did not obey God's word? =They were +driven out of the garden.= + + +Lesson II. The Earliest People. + +(Tell Stories 2 and 3.) + +=To the Teacher:= + +1. In the story of C[=a]in and [=A]´b[)e]l, explain carefully what is +meant by "an altar"; and how in early times people came to God in +prayer. With little children, use the word "praying," rather than +"worship," and "gift to God" or "offering," rather than "sacrifice." + +2. In the story of "The Great Ship," explain what "an ark" was, properly +a chest or box; in this story, a great ship, built not to sail fast, but +to float on the water, and to hold a great amount. Perhaps it was made +so large, not only to carry many animals and their food, but also very +many people, if the people had been willing to be saved by it. + +=1.= Who was the first child of [)A]d´[)a]m and [=E]ve after they were +sent out of the garden of [=E]´d[)e]n? =C[=a]in.= + +=2.= What was the name of C[=a]in's younger brother? =[=A]´b[)e]l.= + +=3.= What wicked thing did C[=a]in do when the two boys grew up to be +men? =He killed his brother [=A]´b[)e]l.= + +=4.= What does the Bible tell of the earliest people who were on the +earth? =They lived to be hundreds of years old.= + +=5.= Who lived the longest of any of those people? =M[+e]-th[u:]´se-lah, +who lived more than nine hundred years.= + +=6.= Were those who lived at that time good people? =Nearly all of them +were very wicked.= + +=7.= What good man lived in those times? =[=E]´n[)o]ch, who walked with +God.= + +=8.= What was the end of [=E]´n[)o]ch's life? =He did not die, but God +took him to himself.= + +=9.= What came upon the earth on account of the wickedness of its +people? =A great flood.= + +=10.= What good man with his family was saved from the flood? =N[=o]´ah +who built the Ark.= + +=11.= On what mountain did N[=o]´ah and his family leave the ark after +the flood? =On Mount Âr´a-r[)a]t.= + + +Lesson III. Abram. + +(Tell Stories 4 and 5.

It is found impracticable to give to all this varied +company the same teaching. The lessons that are admirably adapted +for boys and girls between ten and fifteen are utterly unsuited to the +children between six and ten. Moreover after looking carefully, I have +not been able to find satisfactory lessons which can be taught to the +young children except by one especially trained for the work; and such +instructions are hard to find.</p> + +<p>After various experiments I adopted in my own teaching the following +plan. We divided the children into two sections; the First Section including +all over nine years old, the Second Section all those under nine.</p> + +<p>I selected for twelve lessons, twelve Bible stories following in succession, +beginning with the story of Adam and Eve. On each of these +stories I prepared a catechism of very simple questions and answers, and +printed them by a duplicating process. After the opening of "The Children's +Hour," I told the story to all present in simple language, explaining +that while the story was told to all it was for the special benefit of the +smaller children; but <b>I noticed even the oldest boys and girls listened to +it with interest equal to the youngest</b>.</p> + +<p>After the Bible story and the singing of a hymn, the Second Section +withdrew to another room. There the children were divided into classes, +and taught the questions and answers. A copy of the leaflet containing +the questions and answers of the story for the day was given to each child, +to be taken home and reviewed by parents or the older members of the +family.</p> + +<p>By separating the children into two grades, the older young people +can receive instruction suited to their age, and the little ones are also +provided for.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4"></a>[<a href="images/4.png">4</a>]</span></p> + +<p>So many pastors and others have requested copies of the leaflets +containing the questions and answers, that it has seemed desirable to +publish them; and they are now completed upon the entire Bible story, +and brought together in book form for the use of teachers of children.</p> + +<p>These lessons may be used in classes of the Sunday School, by teachers +who desire a more consecutive treatment of the Bible story than is given +in the International Sunday School lessons, and by parents.</p> + +<p>There are many families where "The Story of the Bible" has been +read to the interest and profit of the children. Parents will find that these +lessons will help to fix the important facts of the Bible story in the minds +of the little ones.</p> + +<p>It will be seen that the questions and answers do not embrace all +the stories in the book. A selection has been made of what seem to be the +most important subjects, affording weekly lessons for one year, with +allowance for vacations, in the Old Testament, and another year in the +New Testament.</p> + +<p>In the hope that these lessons may aid the children of to-day, who +are to be the men and women of to-morrow, to gain a definite knowledge +of the Word of God these lessons are sent forth.</p> + +<div class='sig'> +<span class="smcap">Jesse Lyman Hurlbut.</span><br /></div> + + + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /><p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5"></a>[<a href="images/5.png">5</a>]</span></p> + +<h2><a name="SUGGESTIONS_FOR_TEACHING" id="SUGGESTIONS_FOR_TEACHING"></a>SUGGESTIONS FOR TEACHING.</h2> + +<p>1. Let the teacher in advance read over the questions and answers +of the lesson, note their relation to the story as told in "The Story of the +Bible," and to some extent fit the story to the lesson which is to be taught.</p> + +<p>2. Tell the story (or stories) of the day's lesson to the children, following +the plan given in the book. Use very simple words and avoid all +that are in any sense technical, or above the mind of a child.</p> + +<p>3. After telling the story for the day, the children may be divided +into classes, and assistants may teach the questions and answers. But +before the close of the session it would be well to ask all the questions, +and have the answers given by the children.</p> + +<p>4. In order to complete each course, in the Old Testament and in the +New, within a year, it may be necessary to omit some of the lessons, +where classes take a vacation in the summer. To complete the course +of each year in such classes the Reviews at the end of each series of lessons +might be omitted, although they will be valuable as summaries of +the important facts of the lesson. Some teachers might prefer to omit +from the Old Testament lessons, some of the following in order to complete +the course in a year. Lesson XXVIII David and Absalom; XXX +The Temple; XXXVI Elisha and Jonah; XXXVIII, XXXIX The +Kings of Judah; XLIV Queen Esther. These are suggested for omission +not because they are unimportant or uninteresting, but in case some +lessons must be omitted. In order to complete the course in one year +in the New Testament lessons, the following might be omitted, if some +must be. XVI The Mothers Prayer; XX The Good Shepherd; XXIII +Jesus and the Children; XXVI, XXVII The Last Teachings.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_6" id="Page_6"></a>[<a href="images/6.png">6</a>]</span></p> + + + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> +<h2><a name="OLD_TESTAMENT_LESSONS" id="OLD_TESTAMENT_LESSONS"></a>OLD TESTAMENT LESSONS.</h2> + + + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> +<h2><a name="PART_FIRST_FROM_ADAM_TO_MOSES" id="PART_FIRST_FROM_ADAM_TO_MOSES"></a>PART FIRST.—FROM ADAM TO MOSES.</h2> + +<h3><br />Lesson I.

These numbered +lessons and parts correspond with the numbered lessons and parts in +"Hurlbut's Story of the Bible."</p> + +<p>Let the teacher begin by asking, "Who can tell us what is the first +verse of the Bible?" When hands are raised, call on three or four +children to repeat the verse in turn; then let all the class repeat it in +concert. Explain what the verse means, that God made the world, and +all the things in it. Tell the story of the creation of the world; of the +first man and the first woman; the Garden of Ē´dĕn, and how Ăd´ăm and +Ēve lost their home, and were driven out. Then teach the class the +answers to the following questions. At the close of the lesson, see that +every young pupil is shown just where the questions and answers on the +lesson are found. The answers should be reviewed by parents, or older +brothers and sisters, until the child can repeat them thoroughly, and can +tell in his own language, the story of the lesson.</p> + + +<div class='center'><b>Questions and Answers.</b></div> + +<p><b>1.</b> What is the first verse in the Bible? <b>"In the beginning God created +the heavens and the earth."</b></p> + +<p><b>2.</b> What does this mean? <b>That God made all things.</b></p> + +<p><b>3.</b> In how many days does the Bible tell us that God made the world? +<b>In six days.</b></p> + +<p><b>4.</b> On what day did God rest from his work? <b>On the seventh day.</b></p> + +<p><b>5.</b> Whom did God make as the first man? <b>Ăd´ăm.</b></p> + +<p><b>6.</b> Who was the first woman? <b>Ēve.</b><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_7" id="Page_7"></a>[<a href="images/7.png">7</a>]</span></p> + +<p><b>7.</b> What place did God give to Ăd´ăm and Ēve as their home? <b>The +garden of Ē´dĕn.</b></p> + +<p><b>8.</b> How long did Ăd´ăm and Ēve live in the beautiful garden? <b>As long +as they did what God told them to do.</b></p> + +<p><b>9.</b> What became of them when they did not obey God's word? <b>They +were driven out of the garden.</b></p> + + +<h3><br />Lesson II.

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 are 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 https://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 +https://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 https://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 https://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: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was 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: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +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. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/29067-h/images/1.png b/29067-h/images/1.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index

JESSE LYMAN HURLBUT, D.D. + + + + + COPYRIGHTED 1907 + BY + THE JOHN C. WINSTON CO. + + * * * * * + +PRINTED IN U.S.A. + + + + +PREFACE. + + +This lesson-book was prepared in order to meet a need realized in my own +work as a pastor; a need which is felt by many pastors and workers among +the young. + +In the Home, Sunday-School and Church are children of all ages, from six +to sixteen. It is found impracticable to give to all this varied company +the same teaching. The lessons that are admirably adapted for boys and +girls between ten and fifteen are utterly unsuited to the children +between six and ten. Moreover after looking carefully, I have not been +able to find satisfactory lessons which can be taught to the young +children except by one especially trained for the work; and such +instructions are hard to find. + +After various experiments I adopted in my own teaching the following +plan. We divided the children into two sections; the First Section +including all over nine years old, the Second Section all those under +nine. + +I selected for twelve lessons, twelve Bible stories following in +succession, beginning with the story of Adam and Eve. On each of these +stories I prepared a catechism of very simple questions and answers, and +printed them by a duplicating process. After the opening of "The +Children's Hour," I told the story to all present in simple language, +explaining that while the story was told to all it was for the special +benefit of the smaller children; but =I noticed even the oldest boys and +girls listened to it with interest equal to the youngest=. + +After the Bible story and the singing of a hymn, the Second Section +withdrew to another room. There the children were divided into classes, +and taught the questions and answers. A copy of the leaflet containing +the questions and answers of the story for the day was given to each +child, to be taken home and reviewed by parents or the older members of +the family. + +By separating the children into two grades, the older young people can +receive instruction suited to their age, and the little ones are also +provided for. + +So many pastors and others have requested copies of the leaflets +containing the questions and answers, that it has seemed desirable to +publish them; and they are now completed upon the entire Bible story, +and brought together in book form for the use of teachers of children. + +These lessons may be used in classes of the Sunday School, by teachers +who desire a more consecutive treatment of the Bible story than is given +in the International Sunday School lessons, and by parents. + +There are many families where "The Story of the Bible" has been read to +the interest and profit of the children. Parents will find that these +lessons will help to fix the important facts of the Bible story in the +minds of the little ones. + +It will be seen that the questions and answers do not embrace all the +stories in the book. A selection has been made of what seem to be the +most important subjects, affording weekly lessons for one year, with +allowance for vacations, in the Old Testament, and another year in the +New Testament. + +In the hope that these lessons may aid the children of to-day, who are +to be the men and women of to-morrow, to gain a definite knowledge of +the Word of God these lessons are sent forth. + + JESSE LYMAN HURLBUT. + + + + +SUGGESTIONS FOR TEACHING. + + +1. Let the teacher in advance read over the questions and answers of the +lesson, note their relation to the story as told in "The Story of the +Bible," and to some extent fit the story to the lesson which is to be +taught. + +2. Tell the story (or stories) of the day's lesson to the children, +following the plan given in the book. Use very simple words and avoid +all that are in any sense technical, or above the mind of a child. + +3. After telling the story for the day, the children may be divided into +classes, and assistants may teach the questions and answers. But before +the close of the session it would be well to ask all the questions, and +have the answers given by the children. + +4. In order to complete each course, in the Old Testament and in the +New, within a year, it may be necessary to omit some of the lessons, +where classes take a vacation in the summer. To complete the course of +each year in such classes the Reviews at the end of each series of +lessons might be omitted, although they will be valuable as summaries of +the important facts of the lesson. Some teachers might prefer to omit +from the Old Testament lessons, some of the following in order to +complete the course in a year. Lesson XXVIII David and Absalom; XXX The +Temple; XXXVI Elisha and Jonah; XXXVIII, XXXIX The Kings of Judah; XLIV +Queen Esther. These are suggested for omission not because they are +unimportant or uninteresting, but in case some lessons must be omitted. +In order to complete the course in one year in the New Testament +lessons, the following might be omitted, if some must be. XVI The +Mothers Prayer; XX The Good Shepherd; XXIII Jesus and the Children; +XXVI, XXVII The Last Teachings. + + + + +OLD TESTAMENT LESSONS. + + + + +PART FIRST.--FROM ADAM TO MOSES. + + +Lesson I. The Beautiful Garden. + +(Tell Story 1 in "Hurlbut's Story of the Bible.") + +=To the Teacher:= + +Under the title of each lesson throughout these pages will be seen +instructions to tell certain lessons, with numbers. These numbered +lessons and parts correspond with the numbered lessons and parts in +"Hurlbut's Story of the Bible." + +Let the teacher begin by asking, "Who can tell us what is the first +verse of the Bible?" When hands are raised, call on three or four +children to repeat the verse in turn; then let all the class repeat it +in concert. Explain what the verse means, that God made the world, and +all the things in it. Tell the story of the creation of the world; of +the first man and the first woman; the Garden of [=E]´d[)e]n, and how +[)A]d´[)a]m and [=E]ve lost their home, and were driven out. Then teach +the class the answers to the following questions. At the close of the +lesson, see that every young pupil is shown just where the questions and +answers on the lesson are found. The answers should be reviewed by +parents, or older brothers and sisters, until the child can repeat them +thoroughly, and can tell in his own language, the story of the lesson. + + +Questions and Answers. + +=1.= What is the first verse in the Bible? ="In the beginning God +created the heavens and the earth."= + +=2.= What does this mean? =That God made all things.= + +=3.= In how many days does the Bible tell us that God made the world? +=In six days.= + +=4.= On what day did God rest from his work? =On the seventh day.= + +=5.= Whom did God make as the first man? =[)A]d´[)a]m.= + +=6.= Who was the first woman? =[=E]ve.= + +=7.= What place did God give to [)A]d´[)a]m and [=E]ve as their home? +=The garden of [=E]´d[)e]n.= + +=8.= How long did [)A]d´[)a]m and [=E]ve live in the beautiful garden? +=As long as they did what God told them to do.= + +=9.= What became of them when they did not obey God's word? =They were +driven out of the garden.= + + +Lesson II.

In the story of C[=a]in and [=A]´b[)e]l, explain carefully what is +meant by "an altar"; and how in early times people came to God in +prayer. With little children, use the word "praying," rather than +"worship," and "gift to God" or "offering," rather than "sacrifice." + +2. In the story of "The Great Ship," explain what "an ark" was, properly +a chest or box; in this story, a great ship, built not to sail fast, but +to float on the water, and to hold a great amount. Perhaps it was made +so large, not only to carry many animals and their food, but also very +many people, if the people had been willing to be saved by it. + +=1.= Who was the first child of [)A]d´[)a]m and [=E]ve after they were +sent out of the garden of [=E]´d[)e]n? =C[=a]in.= + +=2.= What was the name of C[=a]in's younger brother? =[=A]´b[)e]l.= + +=3.= What wicked thing did C[=a]in do when the two boys grew up to be +men? =He killed his brother [=A]´b[)e]l.= + +=4.= What does the Bible tell of the earliest people who were on the +earth? =They lived to be hundreds of years old.= + +=5.= Who lived the longest of any of those people? =M[+e]-th[u:]´se-lah, +who lived more than nine hundred years.= + +=6.= Were those who lived at that time good people? =Nearly all of them +were very wicked.= + +=7.= What good man lived in those times? =[=E]´n[)o]ch, who walked with +God.= + +=8.= What was the end of [=E]´n[)o]ch's life? =He did not die, but God +took him to himself.= + +=9.= What came upon the earth on account of the wickedness of its +people? =A great flood.= + +=10.= What good man with his family was saved from the flood? =N[=o]´ah +who built the Ark.= + +=11.= On what mountain did N[=o]´ah and his family leave the ark after +the flood? =On Mount Âr´a-r[)a]t.= + + +Lesson III.

Abram and Lot. + +(Begin at page 53 in Story 5; tell stories 6 and 8, omitting all of +Story 7, except to tell that Abram's name was changed to Abraham.) + +=1.= Who was L[)o]t? =He was [=A]´br[)a]m's nephew, who at first lived +with [=A]´br[)a]m.= + +=2.= Where did L[)o]t live, after he left his uncle [=A]´br[)a]m? =Near +the wicked city of S[)o]d´om.= + +=3.= What happened to L[)o]t and his family at S[)o]d´om? =They were +carried away by enemies in war.= + +=4.= How was L[)o]t saved from those enemies and brought back to his +home? =By [=A]´br[)a]m, who drove the enemies away.= + +=5.= What new name did God give to [=A]´br[)a]m? =The name of +[=A]´br[)a]-h[)a]m.= + +=6.= Who came to visit [=A]´br[)a]-h[)a]m in his tent? =Angels from +God.= + +=7.= What good news did they bring to [=A]´br[)a]-h[)a]m? =That he +should have a son.= + +=8.= What prayer did [=A]´br[)a]-h[)a]m make to God? =That God would not +destroy the wicked city of S[)o]d´om.= + +=9.= What did God promise to [=A]´br[)a]-h[)a]m? =To spare the city, if +he should find ten good men in it.= + +=10.= How many good men did the angels of God find in S[)o]d´om? =Only +one, L[)o]t.= + +=11.= What came upon S[)o]d´om, and the cities near it after the angels +had sent L[)o]t away? =A rain of fire.= + + +Lesson V.

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 https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

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 https://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.

General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone.

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: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +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. diff --git a/29067.zip b/29067.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..61f5bcc --- /dev/null +++ b/29067.zip diff --git a/LICENSE.txt b/LICENSE.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6312041 --- /dev/null +++ b/LICENSE.txt @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ +This eBook, including all associated images, markup, improvements, +metadata, and any other content or labor, has been confirmed to be +in the PUBLIC DOMAIN IN THE UNITED STATES. + +Procedures for determining public domain status are described in +the "Copyright How-To" at https://www.gutenberg.org. + +No investigation has been made concerning possible copyrights in +jurisdictions other than the United States.
