These selections\u003cbr\u003ehave been made as a result of more than twenty-five years of observation\u003cbr\u003eand study. The text is that of the Bible itself, but in the language of\u003cbr\u003ethe child, so that it may easily be read to the younger children and by\u003cbr\u003ethose who are older. It is not in words of one syllable, for while the\u003cbr\u003echild is reading the Bible he should gradually learn the meaning of new\u003cbr\u003ewords and idioms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Bible contains the foundations on which the religious life of the\u003cbr\u003echild must be built. The immortal stories and songs of the Old and New\u003cbr\u003eTestaments are his richest inheritance from the past. To give him this\u003cbr\u003eheritage in language and form that he can understand and enjoy is the\u003cbr\u003eduty and privilege of his parents and teachers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is hoped that \"The Children's Bible\" will meet the need and the\u003cbr\u003edemand, which parents and educators alike have long felt and often\u003cbr\u003eexpressed, for a simple translation of selections from the Bible most\u003cbr\u003esuited to the needs and the interests of the child. It is also believed\u003cbr\u003ethat after the child has learned to appreciate and love these stories\u003cbr\u003eand songs, he will be eager and able to read the Bible as a whole with\u003cbr\u003egenuine interest and understanding.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCONTENTS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTHE OLD
