Summary "The Chosen People: A Compendium of Sacred and Church History for School-Children" by the author of "The Heir of Reddclyffe" is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work aims to present the narrative of the Scriptures in a clear and accessible manner for young readers, drawing on significant events and characters to illustrate the overarching themes of prophecy and redemption within the biblical context. At the start of the compendium, the author sets the stage by discussing God's promise of redemption even after the fall of man, highlighting key figures such as Adam, Noah, and Abraham. The narrative unfolds to portray the lineage of God's chosen people through these foundational stories, emphasizing the covenant established with Abraham and the trials faced by his descendants. As the author introduces the early history of Israel, significant events including Noah's ark and the Tower of Babel are described, establishing a foundation for the comprehension of biblical events that follow, particularly concerning the lives of the patriarchs and the growth of the Israelite nation. This opening portion serves to engage readers with the compelling historical context and spiritual significance of the biblical narrative. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
