The Bible the Wisdom of Nation
Deuteronomy 4:1-40
Now therefore listen, O Israel, to the statutes and to the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that you may live…


Consider —

I. THAT THE BIBLE BRINGS GREATNESS TO A NATION; because —

1. When received and obeyed, it brings God's blessing with it.

2. It elevates the national character.

II. THAT IT IS THE DUTY OF ALL TO HAVE A PERSONAL ACQUAINTANCE WITH THE SCRIPTURES, AND TO INSTRUCT THE YOUNG IN THEM.

(S. Hayman, B. A.)
