Synopsis

The Voice In Rama Hushed; Or, Consolation For Bereaved Parents &C by Alexander Ellis Pearce. This devotional tract offers Christian consolation to bereaved parents, focusing especially on those who have lost infant children. Drawing on the prophecy of Rama from Scripture and its application to the destruction of Bethlehem’s children, the work explores the depth of parental grief while affirming God’s sovereignty, the mortality of all beings, and the perceived purpose of creation. Pearce argues that infants who die before personal sin are saved through the atonement of Christ and that their present happiness in heaven provides comfort to grieving families, including the hope of future reunion. The text presents scriptural explanations, reflections on mortality, and pastoral anecdotes to illustrate consolation, aiming to strengthen faith and submission to God. It also exhorts unbelieving parents toward repentance and encourages young readers to prepare for eternity, emphasizing early devotion to Christ as the path to heavenly peace.
