King's Business - 1955-01

BOOK REVIEWS continued suspected vistas of thought open to the mind as Scripture is brought to bear upon the body and its members —this is a book on Christian conse­ cration. Illustrations and literary quotations and allusions abound. 180 pages; cloth; Zondervan Publishing House, Grand Rapids, Mich.; $2.50 Sermon Outlines By Charles Simeon and Others This reprint of a large composite work is a collection of hundreds of sermon outlines originally published in Simeon’s Horae Homileticae and Skeletons, Sketches of Sermons, Pul­ pit Assistance, Benson’s Plans, Preach­ er and Pulpit. These had been col­ lected as the Theological Sketchbook, and as such it is now reprinted. The outlines are arranged under familiar theological heads, such as The Holy Scriptures, Trinity, God, Christ, The Holy Spirit, Man and the Way of Salvation. Originally in two volumes, the work now is bound as one, with full Scripture indexes. These are val­ uable studies of texts—they are es­ pecially interesting as they reveal the homiletical treatment of a period much earlier than our own, going back to the late eighteenth century. 512 & 518 pages; cloth; Baker Book House, Grand Rapids, Mich.; $6.95. 6 ,0 0 0 Sermon Illustrations 6 ,0 0 0 'Windows for Sermons By Elon Foster These companion volumes are re­ prints of books of classic sermon il­ lustrations from such men as Spurg­ eon, Baxter, Beecher, Calvin, Arnot, Wesley, Guthrie, Toplady, Luther and Boston. The anecdotes are arranged alphabetically under a topical ar­ rangement for easy location. Topical cross indexes in each book make the material easily available to the read­ er. These volumes provide a veritable library of the best illustrative mater­ ial from the outstanding preachers of the past. 704 & 791 pages; cloth; Baker Book House, Grand Rapids, Mich.; $5.95 each. The hand and the Booh By W. M. Thomson The author was a Presbyterian mis­ sionary in Syria and Palestine from 1833 to 1876, a period of over 40 years. He was an authority on the archeology and customs of the Holy Land. This work, subtitled Biblical Illustrations Drawn from the Man­ ners and Customs, the Scenes and Scenery of the H oly Land, is especial­ ly valuable because it portrays Pal­ estine before modem developments brought about many changes in the land and its people.
