HE `FRESHNESS OF THE BIBLE.
BY !!LLFSED BENIN, D. D.
"Father! that book, with whose worn
leaves the careless infant played, must be
the Bible. ' Therein thy dim eyes will
meet 43 cheering light and silent words of
mercy breathed from Heaven, will be ex
haled,from, the blist page into thy withered
heart."
Queen Elizabeth, who spent much of her
time in reading , the best, writings of her
own and former ages, has left on record the
following evidences that she.did not neglect
the Book. of God. "I walk many times is
the pleasant , fields of the Holy Scriptures,
where I pluck the goodlisome herbs of sen
tences by pruning, eat them by reading,.
zu di
gest•the by-musing, and lay thenfup at
length in thehigh seat of memory by gather
ing them togethez: - •so that, having tasted their
sweetness, I may less perceive the bitterness
of life," , • , • •
.
I ask attention to-the name lirwhich - the
Queen - designated the venerable ,volume.
She tegitriledsit'aii.eonsisting of "pleasant
fields.' There is important significance in
this descriptive phrase. It was certainly
possible for,God to ; make his revelation to
the race in '-aftch form . that (according to
the demand of the infidel Strauss), "a man
ifhould be able to lay his finger upon a pre
cept or a doctrine for each occurring need,
and to fold - ii - ' ont *place, and Under one
head, all which relates to one matter." It
might have been given tons as a systematic
body of divinity, or as a statute-book, - wit....
a digest and indei and accompanying It; io
that in a moment, as it were, all might be
seen that it contains, touching any of its
.credenda andmenda or its articles of faith
and its rules' ofjpractice. - -
But - suppose this arrangement had been
adopted, lhopld ithave carried with it any
advantage to ns? Think for a moment.
How much- -more' pleasant is it to wander
over a broad and .-beautiful field, with its
graceful - undulations, its alternate lights
and shades, and its freshly growing plants,
with the dew upon their leaves and the
mould about their roots, than to walk in.
straight; hard, level and narrow pathof
garden, whieh is entirely the product of
constant labor and forced culture! How
much less agreeable to traverse sash a
confined and stiff enclosure, all of which
falls under the eye at a single glance, leav
ing no •variety to delight, and no discov
eries to be made as the step advances, than
to pass over an expanded territory,on which
the systematizing influence of art has not yet
been brought to bear, with heights and
valleys,forests and streams on the right and
left of our path, and close about us, full of
concealed- wonders and choice treasures!
Now, this is the manner in which the
Scriptures have been given to ns, and it
is impossible not to perceive the wisdom
which it indicates. As thus before us, - -
these holy oracles constitute an abiding
stimulus to research, and an unfailing
source of variety and interest. "It is only,"
says one, "when our energies are roused,
and our attention awake, when we are ac
quiring, or_correcting, or improving our
kntwledge, that knowledge makes tae re
quisite impressiOn upon us. God has not
made Scripture like a: garden, "where thA
fruits are ripe, and the flowers bloom, and
all things are fully exposed to our view.
but like a field, where we have the ground,
and- seed of all precious thing, but where
nothing can be brought to view without
our industry, nor then, without the dews
of heavenly grace,"
"I find in the Bible," says Cecil, "a grand
peculiarity, that seems to say to all who at
temptio . systematize it, I am not of • your
mind . . Istand alone. The great and
the wise ehalrnever exhaust my treasures:
by figures and parables I will come down
to the feelings and understandings of the
ignorant. - Leave me as I am, but study me
incessantly." -
This is a true view of the Bible. It is so
constructed as to develop constantly some
thing new. It cannot be disposed of at one
reading. It demands a vigorous exercise of
the understanding. No man that has ever
lived could be said to have read it through.
Many, indeed, have perused its pages from
beginning to end, but these have always
been the first to admit that it required, and
would bear, perusal again and again, and
that the more men study it, the more they
'will be amazed at its wonderful depths,
and:attracted with its magnificent beauties.
The learned Le Qlere tells us, that while
he was compiling his Harmony, he was so
struck with admiration of the excellent
discourses of Jesus, and so inflamed with
the love of his most holy doctrine, that he
had but just begun to be acquainted with
what he scarcely' ever laid out of his hands
from. infancy. During the time that Dr.
Kennicott was employed on .his Polyglot
Bible, it was the constant office of his wife,
in their daily airings, to read to him those
different portions to which his immediate
attention was called. When preparing for
their ride the day after this great work was
completed, uponthee asking him what book
she would take, 'Oh!" exclaimed he, "let tali
begin the Bible!"
"The fairest productions of human wit,"
ramarks 'Bishop Horne, "after a few peru
sals, like gathered flowers, wither in our
hands, and lose their fragrancy, but these
unfadmg plants of Paradise become, as we
are accustomed to them, still moreand more
beautiful, their blocon appears to be doubly
- heightened; fresh odors are emitted, and
new sweets extracted from them. He who
hath once tasted their excellencies, will de
sire:to taSte them again, and he who tastes
them oftenest will relish them best."
"I know not a better rule of reading the
Scriptures;". says John Newton, "than to
read it through;from beginning to end, and
when,wehave finished it once, to begin it
again. We shall meet with many passages
which we can make little improvement of,
but not so manyirt the second reading as in
the first;and fewer in the third than in the
second.".
"The Bible," says an eminent - divine "re
sembles an. extensive garden, where there
is a vast viirietyr and profuSidn of frints and'
flowers, Mute of ,which are more essential,.
or more splendid than others,.bnt there is
not a blade suffered to grow in it, which
has not its use and beauty in the system.
Salvation for sinners is thegrand truth pre
i -
• • sented everywhere, and n all points of
light, but the pure in heart sees a thousand
traits of the Divine character, of himself;.
and of the world, some striking and'bold,
others cast, as it were, into the shade, and
designed to be searched for and examined."
"A man's love of Scripture at the begin
ning of a religious course," remarked Dr.
Arnold, "is such as makes the praiSes
which older Christians give to the Bible
seem exaggerated, but, after twenty or
thirty years of a religious life, such praise
always sounds inadequate. Its glories
seem,so much more full than they seemed
at first."
And this experience of the inexhaustible
ness of the Bible, let it be noted, was not
confined to the persons' just named. Ten
thousand times ten thousand witnesses there
have been, and there are, that the love of
the sacred volume grows with the perusal,
and that it affords to the student of its`pages
ever-fresh delight. It is not so with other
things. Interest in them is abated by repe
tition and• familiarity. The sweetest song
that minstrel ever-sang upon earth, soon'
becomes hackneyed, and we get tired of it.'
The richest viands, by becoming common,'
lose theirrelish. The most beautiful land
scape loses its power to inspire by being
often surveyed -Most books we read, even
those ,which are most intensely interesting
and exciting, will not bear reading more
than twice or thrice.
This, however, is -not true of the bible.
The more, e read it the more we desire to
read, and the. more we find to read. It still
has, after assiduous and repeated perusal,
the charm of novelty, like the, great:orb-of ,
daw, at Which we are wont to gaze with
unabated astonishment from infancy to old
:age. After all our delving, there are yet
profounder depths to be sounded, after all
our soaring, , there are stillloftier heights to
be scaled. The.yeterati, whose: whitened
locks, and wrinkled brow. and beaded
form, indicate that the time of his departure
must be to him the absorbing theme, tarns
over the pages of this volume with an inter
est undiminished by accumulating -years.
The legate of the skies brings fofth things
new from it, as certainly as he did when
commencing its exposition fifty years ago.
The public assembly listened ,to it, when
read, from year to year, with -eyes fixed,.
and ear awake, -end attention that neyer
tires, and an interest that never clogs.
"Select, if you can." says Robert Hall,
"any other composition,. and- let it be ren
i3ereci equally familiar to the' mind, and see
whether it will produce this effect."
