Excerpt from Memorable Passages From the Bible (Authorized Version): Selected and Edited

Some years ago we published a little book let of questions and answers from God's word and named it Bible Quiz. Its Object was to stimulate among the young a closer search into the treasures of the divine book, and thus help form a more general acquaint ance with its structure and its rich and varied contents. We believe, from its general sales and the kind letters the author has received from many who are using it, that it has filled a felt want and been productive Of good.

The same motives have prompted us to send forth this companion volume. It is our opinion that in our day the committing Of Scripture passages has largely fallen out of use in home and school. Beyond, possibly, the memorizing Of golden texts (and in many schools this is sadly neglected), there is no efiort made by our present-day Sunday schools in committing to memory the blessed truths Of God's word. The day of red and blue tickets has gone by, and so has much Of the Bible reading and study in the home, where, alas I the Old-time family altar has been almost universally broken down.
