Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pictorial Bible, Vol. 1: Being the Old and New Testaments According to the Authorized Version Illustrated With Many Hundred Wood-Cuts And this is confirmed by the subsequent historical books, which constantly refer to the books of Moses as well known and familiar to the whole nation, from the time of the death of Moses to the termination of the Old Testament history. See Josh. I. 7, 8 xxiii. 6. Compare Josh. Xxiv. 26 with viii. 32, 34. See also Kings ii. 3 2 Kings xxii. 8 2 Chron. Xxxiv. 14. To show that such references are made to the very same books of Moses that we now possess, nothing more is requisite than to make a careful comparison of the passages in the historical books with the passages alluded to in the Pentateuch. Compare 2 Kings xiv. 6, with Deut. Xxiv. 6: 2 Kings xxiii. 2-25; and 2 Chron. Xxxv. 1-19 with Lev. Xxvi. 3-45, and Deut. Xxvii. 11, to xxviii. 68: Ezra iii. 2-6 with Lev. Vi. 7: Ezra vi. 18 with Num. Iii. 6-45: viii. Ll, 14; Neh. 1. 7-9 with Lev. Xxvi. 41, and Deut. Iv. 26, 27 xxviii. 64; xxx. 3-5. Thus every allusion in the historical books has its cor responding passage in the Mosaical books; and there is no discrepancy in this series of incidental and unbroken testimony, commencing with Joshua, immediately after the death of Moses, and extending through a period of more thana thousand years. The prophetical books also afford conclusive evidence both of the existence and identity of the five books of Moses. This may be shown by comparing the allusions of the earlier prophets to the Mosaical law with the Pentateuch as we now have it. Joel lived 650 years after Moses. Compare Joel 1. 9, 13 with Lev. Ii. 6; Num. Xv. 4, 5, 7 xxviii. 7, 14; Deut. Xii. 6, 7; xvi. 10, ll. Amos lived 660 years after Moses. Compare Amos ii. 9, with Num. Xxi. 21, 24: iv. 4 with Num. Xxviii. 3, 4: iv. 10 with Exod. Vii.-xi.: iv. 11 with Gen. Xix. 24, 25; ix. 13 with Lev. Xxvi. 5. Hosea lived 670 years after Moses. Compare Hos. Ix. X. With Num. Xxv. 3 xi. 8 with Gen. Xix. 24, 25 xii. 4, 5 with Gen. Xxxii. 24, 25 xii. 12 with Gen. Xxviii. 5; xxix. 20. Isaiah lived about 690 years after Moses. Compare Isa. 1. 9-14 with Gen. Xix. 4, and with various precepts; xii. 2 with Exod. Xv. 2; 11. 2, with Gen. Xii. 2; xvii. 2; liv. 9 with Gen. Viii 21, 22. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
