"In these chapters there is a sense of the grand sweep of human history and of the purpose of God which runs through it.  None of us are mere creatures of today; we are the product of generations and generations of mankind; and in our lives there are tides of influence that began to move in the remotest antiquity.  Our lives gain enormously in depth and meaning when we see our small existence as part of the whole adventure of man upon the earth."[2]
