Originál: (en) The word Bible, or book, which I have in my hand, is well applied to the holy scriptures, because it is the book of God, written by him that is, by his order and by those who were inspired by him for that end; and yet, of all writings in the world, these are most neglected! God has condescended to become an author, and yet people will not read his writings. There are very few that ever gave this Book of God, the grand charter of salvation, one fair reading through.
