This little volume by Rev. Charles H. Spurgeon charmingly discusses the illustrations which may be found in common candles. We congratulate the American publishers on the service which they render in publishing this little book; and we congratulate all its readers on the privilege they will enjoy in studying its pages. Truly the versatility of Mr. Spurgeon is marvellous; he is daily and hourly “anointed with fresh oil.” This is certainly one of the most charming and instructive of the many volumes which he has written. He tells us delightfully in the opening pages how the idea of this lecture was suggested. The little volume gives us striking proofs of his wide reading, his knowledge of history, his practical philosophy, and his ever-present religious purpose. He shows us how much of candle-light there is in the Holy Scriptures, and in so doing he mingles exegesis and exhortation in wise proportions. Most helpful are his remarks on candles in emblems, on candles lighting other candles, on different kinds of candles and candlesticks, on candles in lanterns, on candles under bushels, on candles that sputter, on candles that are protected, on candles that are extinguished, on candles that burn at both ends, on candles that unite with other candles, on candles that are short, and candles that are long, and still other kinds of candles. The illustrations in the little book are illustrations in truth; it is a volume that can be read in a few hours, but which will occupy the thought and stimulate the heart for days. It will delight the young as they gather about the reader under the light of chandelier, lamp, or candle; and it will give instruction and comfort to the most experienced saint. It will furnish illustrations to the Sunday-school teacher and to the pulpit expounder; it has warmed my own heart, and has illumined for me many passages of Scripture and incidents of history. Wonderful man is this Spurgeon! May God continue to have him in His holy keeping, making every product of his pen, even like the Bible itself, a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path.
