Synopsis

Sacred History, Selected From The Scriptures: With Annotations And Reflections, Particularly Calculated To Facilitate The Study Of The Holy Scriptures In Schools And Families by Sarah Trimmer. This volume compiles Scripture selections (largely from the Gospels and Acts) with running annotations and reflections designed for use in schools and families. The editor groups material under Contents and Section headings such as The Malice of the Jews, Christ's Entry into Jerusalem, The Passion and Resurrection, and the early history of the Church, presenting the Sacred Narrative alongside moral and devotional commentary. Each section opens with a passage from Scripture followed by scholarly annotations and practical reflections intended to clarify doctrine, encourage virtuous conduct, and promote reliable biblical interpretation. The work aims to make the Holy Scriptures approachable for lay readers and schoolchildren, combining narrative history with instruction in Christian faith, piety, and benevolence through the early Christian era.
