From October 1841–1847, Thomas Chalmers compiled these “Sabbath Readings” as he worked through each chapter from Genesis 1 through 2 Kings 11. Like Augustine’s Confessions, these meditations are primarily written in the form and language of prayer. This volume is the companion volume to Chalmers’ Sabbath Scripture Readings on the New Testament. Sadly, Chalmers died before he was able to complete the Old Testament, but these 507 pages contain riches rarely found in such devotional works. About the AuthorThomas Chalmers (17 March 1780 – 31 May 1847), Scottish mathematician, political economist and a leader of the Free Church of Scotland, was born at Anstruther in Fife.
