Devotional Hours with the Bible DEVOTIONAL H WITH THE BIBLE READINGS IN THE ACTS, THE EPISTLES AND REVELATION BY J. R. MILLER, D. D. PHILADELPHIA THE WESTMINSTER PRESS Copyright, 191S GEORGE H. DORAN COMPANY The most imposing and important work undertaken by Dr. Miller." British C ongregationalist. DEVOTIONAL HOURS WITH THE BIBLE By J. R. MILLER, D. D. In Eight Volumes Price, $1.25 Net, Per Volume XN this series of devotional expositions Dr. Miller proposes to cover the entire Bible, not in detail, but in such a manner as to fur- nish a comprehensive yet concise spiritual in- terpretation of the Bible Record from Genesis to Revelation. These volumes are designed to include the spiritual and practical lessons of the great pas- sages of the Bible in so far as they bear upon the common life of the people of to-day. NOW READY Vol. L—From the Creation to the Crossing of the Red Sea. Vol. n.—From the Crossing of the Red Sea to the Close of the Life of David. Vol. in.—The Gospel by Matthew. Vol. IV.—Solomon to Malachi. Vol. V.—Readings in the Synoptic Gospels on the Life of Christ. Vol. VI.—Readings from the Psalms. Vol. VII.—The Gospel of St. John. Vol. VIII.—Readings in the Acts, the Epistles and Revelation. READINGS IN THE ACTS, THE EPISTLES AND REVELATION GENERAL PREFACE Theee are two methods of studying the Bible. One is, verse by verse, giving close thought to every word, even looking into etymology and grammat- ical construction, so that the exact sense of the text may be learned. Such study is important. Many rich shades of meaning are often revealed by intelligent and scholarly exegesis. Commen- taries that take us over the Bible in this micro- scopical way are valuable. We need every par- ticle of light on the Scriptures we can get. Then another way of studying the Bible is in order to get from it practical lessons for our own daily, common life. What does the passage teach us? What divine instruction have we in it for ourselves? It is the latter purpose that is in mind in this book. It is not a commentary in the usual sense. It is not an exegetical study of the Scriptures that is proposed. No textual criticism is given. There is no discussion of questions of dates, of localities, of authorships, or archaeolog- ical researches. Its single aim is to suggest some of the spiritual lessons which may be gathered from great passages. The book does not attempt to cover every chap- ter; to do this would make it altogether too long vi PREFACE —^it deals only with what appears to be leading and representative portions of the Bible. It is a book for use in the inner chamber, wihere life receives its impulses for conduct, for duty, for service, and for devotion. The Bible is a very ancient book, but it is also a book for to-day. It brings us face to face with God, and its teachings are meant to guide us in all our ways. J. E. M. PREFACE TO THIS VOLUME In 1908, when Dr. Miller was persuaded to pre- pare these practical comments for the volumes of this series, he asked me to share his editorial duties in order that he might have time for the new work. Side by side we worked for four years, during which he completed seven volumes of the eight. He was busy on the last volume when he realized that God would soon take him from earth. Then the request was made that I complete the volume for him. It will not be necessary to tell readers that the messages are all from Dr. Miller's pen. My only task has been the choice of material and the ad- justment of the chapters. John" T. Faeis.

XXII. 11-21 EEADINGS IN THE ACTS, THE EPISTLES AND EEVELATION CHAPTER I cheist's ascension Read Acts 1: 1-14 The Ascension was part of the work of Christ as our Saviour. It was not the end of it. The Gospel narrative is described by Luke as ''all that Jesus began both to do and to teach. " It is inter- esting to think of words and deeds of Jesus as beginnings. He did not cease to live and work when He went away from earth. He only re- turned to heaven, where He continmed His active interest in behalf of this world. The atonement was made on the cross, but the real work of sav- ing men goes on all these common days. Men are not saved merely by Christ's death on Calvary; each one is saved by a personal relation with Christ, and by the work of Christ, which goes on in his life from the day he settles the great ques- tion until he enters heaven. Thus the work of Christ is going on ; He only began it in His years on the earth. The coming of the Spirit was really the return of Christ to this world to continue His ministry. His work is carried on, too, by His people in this world. We are the body of Christ and we are to be Christ to others; Christ would live in us and work through us. 1 2 CHRIST'S ASCENSION The most wonderful miracle the world ever saw was the raising of Jesus Christ from the dead. The truth of the resurrection is the very comer stone of our Christian faith. Everything depends upon it. If it could be disproved, the whole system of Christianity Would be swept away. A Christ who died and did not rise again could never be the Helper and Saviour we need. If the body of Jesus still lies amid the dust of Jerusalem, how can He help us in our struggles, our toils and our duties? If death was too strong for Him, how can we hope that He can conquer death for us? In those forty days during which Christ remained on the earth He appeared again and again to His dis- ciples in different manifestations of His love, and gave them proofs which left not a shadow of a doubt in aJny heart.

  • Cutting Patterns in DW Griffith's Biographs
    Cutting patterns in D.W. Griffith’s Biographs: An experimental statistical study Mike Baxter, 16 Lady Bay Road, West Bridgford, Nottingham, NG2 5BJ, U.K. (e-mail: [email protected]) 1 Introduction A number of recent studies have examined statistical methods for investigating cutting patterns within films, for the purposes of comparing patterns across films and/or for summarising ‘average’ patterns in a body of films. The present paper investigates how different ideas that have been proposed might be combined to identify subsets of similarly constructed films (i.e. exhibiting comparable cutting structures) within a larger body. The ideas explored are illustrated using a sample of 62 D.W Griffith Biograph one-reelers from the years 1909–1913. Yuri Tsivian has suggested that ‘all films are different as far as their SL struc- tures; yet some are less different than others’. Barry Salt, with specific reference to the question of whether or not Griffith’s Biographs ‘have the same large scale variations in their shot lengths along the length of the film’ says the ‘answer to this is quite clearly, no’. This judgment is based on smooths of the data using seventh degree trendlines and the observation that these ‘are nearly all quite different one from another, and too varied to allow any grouping that could be matched against, say, genre’1. While the basis for Salt’s view is clear Tsivian’s apparently oppos- ing position that some films are ‘less different than others’ seems to me to be a reasonably incontestable sentiment. It depends on how much you are prepared to simplify structure by smoothing in order to effect comparisons.

  • On Pilgrimage
    On Pilgrimage Dorothy Day November Summary: An essay and meditation about love in its many forms, human and divine. Quotes scripture, saints, secular writers, and especially Soloviev on love. Concludes that the Catholic Worker is " still trying to work out a theory of love, a study of the problem of love so that the revolution of love instead of that of hate may come about and we will have a new heaven and a new earth wherein justice dwelleth." Includes a poem whose theme is dying and rising. Deeply personal account of being with her dying mother.Includes prayers and meditations on death and dying. Prays to the Little Flower for her mother. Evidence of answered prayer came in a variety of roses from different sources. (DDLW #485). THERE IS a character in The Plague, by Albert Camus, who says that he is tired of hearing about men dying for an idea. He would like to hear about a man dying for love for a change. He goes on to say that men have forgotten how to love, that all they seem to be thinking of these days is learning how to kill. Man, he says, seems to have lost the capacity for love. What is God but Love? What is a religion without love? We read of the saints dying for love, and we wonder what they mean. There was a silly verse I used to hear long ago: “Men have died from time to time, and worms have eaten them, but not for love.” It comes from As You Like It.
