BIBLE AS SOURCE
Of INSPIRATION

When Bernard Shaw, Chaucer,
Kipling or Robert Browning are
spoken of in lecture, social converse
or literature we all want to feel con-
versant enough with them to carry
on the suggested line of thought or
conversation.
Do we all know that Browning was
a profound Bible student? Do we
all realize that in his Ring Book
there aYe FIVE hundred Biblical
phrases? Do we all consider that the
writings of almost every author of
eminence today contains phraseology
of the Bible, and many replete with
full quotations? How are we to ac-
quire the familiarity which culture
demands and is really necessary for
Intelligent comprehension if we do
not know the sources of such ref
erences?
Bible reading helps us in every
walk of life, both in material and
spiritual development.
