To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Reason should not be elevated above the Scriptures; yet they cannot be understood without its aid. The Creator, in the Bible, addresses himself directly to man's reason: "Come now, and let ns reason to- gether, saith the Lord." * Without the ex- ercise of reason in reading the Bible, it will be as a sealed book. How else can man com- prehend its truths, and be instructed by its rich lessons of wisdom ? In the exercise of this highest capacity bestowed upon us, the word of God will appear harmon...ious in all its parts — beautiful and sublime in all its truths — instructive in all its lessons — inspir- ing the brightest, broadest hopes the mind can conceive. But lay reason aside, in its perusal, and it will be involved in inextrica- ble confusion, and impenetrable darkness. The young should not lose sight of the fact, that we have the Bible only in the form of a translation by uninspired men, from the original Hebrew and Greek, in which it was * Isaiah L 18. LECTURES TO YOUTH. 139 penned by the inspired writers.
