Service Book: For the Use of the Church of the Disciples, Taken Principally from the Old and New Testaments (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Service Book: For the Use of the Church of the Disciples, Taken Principally From the Old and New Testaments

This book has been prepared for the use of the Church of' the Disciples. The whole of it is from the Bible, with the exception of the TB deum, and the two first litanies, which are from the W'arren Street Chapel Liturgy. The Psalms have been carefully pre pared, by omitting such passages as were unsuitable for devotional purposes, and improving the translation in some places, where the common version is obscure or otherwise objectionable. Wherever an alteration has been made, in the psalms or the Selections from the Prophets, it has been done upon the authority of the best modern critics. Noyes and De fette have been chiefly followed.
