Excerpt from Portraits of Women of the Bible: Old Testament Series The following character-sketches were given in the ordinary course of my pulpit ministrations. The members of the congregation were interested in them during their delivery, and the suggestion was made that they might be put into a more permanent form hence this volume. The title of the book sufficiently describes its aim; the lectures are pen-portraits, and the endeavour has been to faithfully reproduce the living features of the original. I have ventured, however, in one or two of the sketches - as e.g. In the case of Rizpah - to fill up that which was lacking in the Scripture narrative in order to give a measure of completeness to the portrait. In others a few simple lessons are suggested; but for the most part the character-sketch is allowed to speak for itself.

The interpretation of this gospel integrates an objective analysis of its historical context and a subjective semantic disclosure of meaning. To that end, a close reading of the text is combined with consistency building in order to achieve textual congruence and plenitude of meaning. The subject/ object split of traditional biblical scholarship that requires analysis in order to produce explanation as a definable object is superseded in this book by the event of reading as a dynamic happening of personal experience from which the reader cannot detach herself or himself.

Everyone loves hearing a good story. Even better than a told story, however, is one that unfolds before your eyes. I noticed that if I read a story from the Bible, the children in my Sunday school class were often not listening. However, if I told the story while drawing it out cartoon-style, on a large sheet of paper taped to the wall, the kids were riveted to the story. These are the drafts of the Bible stories that I used to teach the children in Sunday school. I would start the drawing with the background, hills or buildings in the first panel, and then I would add the characters in the foreground as they are introduced to the story. This idea for drawing the Bible stories while telling them is from a book I read many years ago. I have not been able to find that book again. Therefore, I am providing these sketches in hopes that someone else can use them. The stories are listed in the same order as they are in the Bible. Kids of all ages benefit by knowing the Bible stories.
