Education" Prof Purdy will give the
first address on The Great Prophet
of the Eighth and Seventh Centuries"
The substance of his talk will be as
follows
The eighth and seventh centuries
mark the turning point Of Hebrew
history. During these two centuries
the glorious state which David and
Solomon created was wrecked, but
out of that wreckage emerged world
Of religion which has changed the
course of all subsequent history in the
western world.
The men who laid the foundations
for this world religion were despised
and rejected of men but today we I'M
derstand what they achieved. One
of the most interesting developments
of modern biblical study is the dis
covery of the social message OF
Elijah. Amos, Hosea, jeremiah, Isa-
iah and Micah. Each one of these an
cient prophets has living message
for modern time, which no intelligent
student can afford to neglect"
