SUGGESTIONS FOR THE PREACHER'S LIBRARY
This is a selection, not quite arbitrary but with an element of arbitrariness about it. The books will not in the main be very modern, partly for reasons already explained, but partly also because very new books cannot, for lack of time, be yet appraised for their abiding worth. The few exceptions to this will not, it is hoped, betray the confidence they have gained. The list will not be very enterprising, therefore, but the student who decides to use it will quickly see some of the advantages of that: a sound second-hand book at from one penny to a shilling is not to be despised, and not a few of the recommendations are in that category.

The " works of the Truth " are listed first, for reasons which will be plain. They need no recommendation here: they are available on ecclesial bookstalls. Lists are published in The Christadelphian and are available from The Christadelphian Office. The range of these works has recently expanded considerably, and there are now (to name no others) expository works on The Law, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel, John, Romans, Ephesians, Hebrews and Revelation. The files of The Christadelphian of recent time complete the list still further, and will doubtless continue to do so. Devotional literature (such as Seasons of Comfort and the recent Conviction and Conduct and Sunday Morning) and more general expository works (such as The Oracles of God) ought not to be neglected, and much of the smaller literature may be profitable for special purposes.
