Excerpt from Sacred Biography, Being a Sequel to the History of the Patriarchs, Vol. 6 of 6: In a Course of Lectures, Delivered at the Scots Church, London Wall, Containing the History of Deborah, Ruth, and Hannah Lecture XVIII. History of Hannah. I Sam. i. 24 - 28. - And when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a bottle of wine, and brought him unto the house of the Lord in Shiloh. And the child was young. And they flew a bullock, and brought the child to Eli, And she said, 0 my lord, as thy soul liveth, my lord, I am the woman that stood by thee here, praying unto the Lord. For this child I prayed, and the Lord hath given me my petition which I asked of him. Therefore also I have lent him to the Lord as long as he liveth, he shall be lent to the Lord. And he worshipped the Lord there. Lecture XIX. History of Hannah. I Sam ii. 1 - 10. - And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the Lord: mine horn is exalted in the Lord, my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies: because I rejoice in thy salvation. There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none befide thee: neither is there any rock like our God. Talk no more so exceeding proudly, let not arrogancy come out of your mouth :for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed. The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength. They that were full have hired out themselves for bread, and they that were hungry ceased , so that the barren hath born seven: and she that hath many children is waxed feeble. The Lord killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
