BIBLE HISTORY FOR THE YOUNG.

+"THE WORD" SERIES.+

By SUSAN and ANNA WARNER, Authors of "The Wide, Wide World," "Queechy,"
&c.

_With Illustrations, Plain and Coloured. Crown 8vo. 2s. 6d. each_.

The aim of this Series of Volumes is so to set forth the Bible incidents
and course of history, with its train of actors, as to see them in the
circumstances and colouring, the light and shade, of their actual
existence.

The volumes embody, as far as possible, all the known facts, natural,
social, and historical, which are required for the illustration and
elucidation of the Bible narrative.

1. WALKS FROM EDEN: The Scripture Story from the Creation to the Death
of Abraham.

2. THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL: The Scripture Story from the Birth of Isaac to
the Death of Jacob.

3. THE KINGDOM OF JUDAH: The Scripture Story from the Death of Solomon
to the Captivity.

4. THE BROKEN WALLS OF JERUSALEM AND THE REBUILDING OF THEM. In
continuation of "The House of Israel" and "The Kingdom of Judah," and
completing the work.

5. THE STAR OUT OF JACOB: The Scripture Story Illustrating the Earlier
Portion of the Gospel Narrative.
