UNDERWOOD.
A
NEW
BOOK,
WITH
A
DOUBLE
MISSION.
For
several
weeks,
the
large
press
at
our
printing-office
has
been
run-
ning
almost
continually
by
day,
as
well
as
some
of
the
time
by
night.
Of
late
the
time
has
been
devoted
to
the
printing
of
a
work
soon
to
be
issued
by
F.
C.
Gilbert,
of
South
Lancas-
ter,
which
in
many
of
its
features
will
be
new
and
helpful.
Doubtless
the
readers
of
the
GLEANER
have
no-
ticed
that
for
several
months
Brother
Gilbert
has
devoted
most
of
his
time
to
the
circulation
of
¢
Christ’s
Object
Lessons.”
Ie
has
also
spoken
in
a
number
of
churches
of
various
denom-
inations
on
different
phases
of
present
truth,
from
the
standpoint
of
a
con-
verted
Hebrew.
The
Lord
has
blessed
in
this
work;
and
many
people
have
become
deeply
interested
to
un-
derstand
the
Bible
better.
Since
the
great
need
of
the
church
and
the
ATLANTIC
UNION
GLEANER
world
to-day
is
a
better
understanding
of
the
gospel
of
the
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
and
the
preparation
necessary
for
His
coming,
he
has
been
impressed
that
there
was
a
fine
opportunity
opening
to
present
the
truths
of
the
gospel,
in
their
fulness,
to
people
of
all
churches
and
denominations,
in
a
way
that
has
not
been
done
in
the
past.
oo
Consequently
he
has
written
a
bagk,
entitled,
*
Practical
Lessons
from
the
Experience
of
Israel
for
the
Church
of
To-day;
and
has
brought
into
the
work
many
things
which
will
throw
much
light
on
the
Scriptures.
The
object
of
the
work
is
to
present
Jesus
Christ
as
He
is,
and
the
mission
that
God
had
for
the
Jews,—to
present
Jesus
to
the
world.
He
shows
the
original
plan
of
God
with
the
Jews,
and
their
failures
in
not
revealing
Jesus
as
they
should.
The
causes
which
led
to
their
rejection
of
Christ,
are
very
clearly
considered,
and
the
application
of
those
experiences
to
the
church
of
to-day.
This
naturally
will
make
many
things
plain
in
the
New
Testament,
because
of
an
under-
standing
of
some
of
the
customs
of
the
Jews
at
the
time
of
the
Savior.
Many
of
the
teachings
of
the
rabbis
are
brought
m,
and
also
a
number
of
the
laws
of
the
Jews,
which
the
Sav-
ior
so
much
condemned
as
the.
tradi-
tions
of
men.
The
work
not
only
traces
the
tradi-
tions
of
the
Jews,
which
led
them
to
close
their
eyes
to
the
Savior
and
to
his
work,
but
it
also
shows
what
the
Jews
might
have
known,
and
might
have
been,
if
they
had
only
followed
the
pure
teaching
of
the
Old
Testa-
ment
instead
of
following
the
sayings
of
men.
This
very
naturally
brings
in
the
law
of
God,
the
preexistence
of
Christ,
the
sanctuary
question,
many
of
the
prophecies,
and
the
work
of
Christ
in
the
Old
Testament,
besides
a
great
many
other
precious
truths.
The
work
is
designed
to
be
helpful
in
other
ways.
Nearly
every
para-
graph
in
the
book
is
numbered;
there
are
sub-headings
every
few
para-
graphs,
which
make
the
book
at
once
a
text-book,
a
reference
book,
and
a
commentary.
All
through
the
book
there
is
quite
a
little
of
Hebrew,
to
explain
various
texts
of
Scripture,
which
will
also
help
in
a
better
understanding
of
both
the
Old
and
New
Testaments.
The
work
is
very
fully
illustrated,
there
being
a
number
of
new
and
original
pictures
to
explain
the
cus-
toms
of
the
Bible
in
the
light
of
the
gospel
of
Christ.
There
are
also
explanatory
notes
at
the
end
of
each
chapter,
which
the
student,
as
well
as
the
ordinary
reader,
will
find
interesting,
instructive,
help-
ful.
The
book
will
contain
about
three
hundred
and
fifty
pages
of
read-
ing
matter;
several
interesting
charts,
diagrams,
the
Hebrew
alphabet,
be-
sides
a
helpful
and
practical
index.
It
is
to
be
finished
in
two
bindings,
cloth
and
half
morocco.
The
cloth-
bound
book
will
have
an
original
de-
sign
on
the
front
side,
stamped
with
silver;
the
back
will
be
also
stamped
in
silver.
The
price
will
be
only
one
dollar.
The
half
morocco
will
have
a
full
morocco
back
and
edges;
the
side
and
the
back
stamped
in
gilt,
and
also
gilt
edges.
This
will
sell
for
two
dollars.
But
all
orders
received
before
the
book
is
out
of
the
press
will
be
sub-
ject
to
a
twenty
per
cent
discount.
The
second
mission
of
the
book
is
to
furnish
means
to
carry
on
the
gos-
pel
among
the
Jews.
We
owe
the
Jews
a
debt;
they
have
been
the
de-
positaries
of
every
truth
that
we
so
dearly
love.
They
ought
to
receive
the
light
of
present
truth.
This
will
be
one
way
to
help
the
spread
of
the
gospel
among
them,
besides
our
get-
ting
help
and
benefit
from
the
word
of
God.

book
