"This work is a gallery of portraits of Scripture Families,--a studio
full of groups and models,--worthy of our study, because they are casts
from perfect originals; where flaws and defects exist in any family,
they are clearly marked for our avoidance; where excellency and beauty
are, these are presented clear and luminous; and, at the same time, the
elements that compose and generate them are indicated with unmistakable
precision."--_Extract from Dr. Cumming's Preface_.
_The above Work forms the first volume of a New Series of Religious
Works, which the Publishers have in contemplation, under the
general title of_
THE FAMILY SACRED LIBRARY.
_They will be printed in the best manner, on a superfine paper; and the
volumes, in must instances, will be edited and enriched with Prefaces by
many of the most talented clergymen of the present day_.
