Preface. THE following treatise owes its origin to the fact that there is no authentic and continuous history of the greatest nation the world has ever had to deal with. The British Empire and the United States of America, English-speaking people, own between them one-fourth part of the universe, and by far more than half its wealth and natural production. The influence of this people far exceeds that of all the former empires which have governed mankind. The Egyptian, Assyrian, Babylonian, Medo-Persian, Grecian and Roman, all put together, do not vie with Britain and the United States in power, in wealth, in moral integrity, or nobleness of character. Whereas their power was autocratic, and maintained by the sword, the dominion of the British and Angles is founded, or constructed, mainly by the democratic freewill of those under its genial and benign sway. The mystery of this, otherwise complex problem, lies in the predestination and lovingkindness of the Almighty Creator, who foreseeing the end from the beginning, has caused all to work together for the ultimate good of the whole human race. For this purpose He called Abraham, and because he was obedient and submissive to His Will, fore-ordained that through his posterity all mankind should be blessed . The historical tale of the people until the coming of the Saviour, is told us in the Old Testament. The prophetical (then future) glories of Israel in Christ, is the theme of all the prophets. Our commentators seem to have sadly lacked in applying these prophetical pictures, with perhaps the exception of " The Speaker's Commentary," which goes nearest to the acceptance of a literal as well as a spiritual application of the Divine promises. <strong>...</strong></p>
