What a mission it is to make known the Bible. We sound again the harp of David, and put to our modern lips the golden trumpet of Isaiah; we speak again with Paul in the jostling streets of Ephesus or of Corinth, or under the matchless temples of the Acropolis; we speak with Moses, fresh from the thunder and lightnings of the mount, and with his face yet shining with a gleam from the glory of God; yea, reverently we may say it, we speak again with the Lord himself, at the well-side, at the supper, from the cross on which he died, from the throne on which he reigns—when we send this Bible around the world—Dr. Storrs.
