w
the author's Bible Studies in the Life of Christ and to
show the work of the Great Apostle in carrying the
gospel to a Gentile world. The aim is to present the work
of Paul in a constructive and historical way. While there
has been a careful consideration, on the part of the author,
of disputed questions, only conclusions upon which there
is a general agreement amongst scholars, and which can be
consistently held, are presented. The great main facts of
Paul's life and work stand forth unchallenged and the
emphasis is placed upon them. This book is divided into
three parts, Paul's preparation for his work, his missionary
journeys, and his writings. This is a text book, and,
with the analysis of each study and questions, is prepared
for the use of normal and advanced Sunday-school classes,
teachers' meetings, schools, colleges, and private study.
This is the sixth book of the kind which the author has
prepared and sent forth. The large favor with which the
other books have been received, and the desire, first of all,
of making the life and work of Paul even better known,
have been the motives which have led to its preparation.

EARLY LIFE
THE PLACE OF PAUL
+The Man, Paul,+ judged by the influence he has
exerted in the world, is one of the greatest characters in
all history. He is pre-eminent not only as a missionary,
but as a marvelous thinker and writer. "He was
a personality of vast power, force, and individuality." There
are some men who seem to be born and prepared
to do a large work for the world; Paul makes the impressi
