Verses From Psalms Quoted ms Sup

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
&c appears very strange to me that in all
the controversies and heated debates that
have followed the advent of Darwins Or
igin of Species" and Descent of Man" no
one has brought forward the words of the
inspired poet. The readers of The Star
will find in the 139th Psalm, from the I4th
to the 18th verses, a clear exposition of the
theory of evolution. These verses follow
Il will praise Thee, for I am fearfulIy
and wonderfully made: marvellous are Thy
works; and that my soul knoweth right
WELL
my substance was not hid from Thee
when 1 was made in secret, and curiously
wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
Thine eyes did see my substance yet
being imperfect; and in Thy book all my
members were written which in continu-
ance were fashioned, when as yet there
was none of them"
OF course the psalmist gives no details;
that is left for the student; but the words
show clearly that rothing was hid from
the inspired miad of the great king, from
whose house was to be raised up the
Savior Of the world. .--.--
