Excerpt from Eastern Manners Illustrative of the Old Testament History The design of the following little work is to illustrate some of the most striking and remarkable events in sacred history. In following the chequered fortunes of the people of God, the reader of the Bible meets with a great variety of incidents and manners that cannot be reduced to any comparative standard with which he is acquainted; and he finds himself often at a loss to form a correct idea of transactions bearing little or no resemblance to the course of things in this part of the world.
