Hundreds of thousands of copies of Thoughts From
the Mount of Blessing have been printed and distributed
in nearly a score of languages since it was first
published in 1896. In English-reading countries several
editions with identical textual content but with
variations in format and pagination have been widely
distributed. To eliminate confusion in the use of the
volume in reference work, a standard page has been
adopted which will serve as the basis of present and
subsequent printings.
In several former editions, in an endeavor to achieve
a certain format, selections from verses of poetry were,
with the consent of the author, inserted by the publishers
in a number of places throughout the text.
In this edition, only poetry selected and made a part
of the text by the author herself is retained. The
addition of both Scripture and subject indexes makes
this volume more useful.
That the lessons drawn from the teachings of the
Master herein set forth may continue to enlighten,
encourage, and bless mankind, is the sincere wish of
the publishers and
The Trustees of the
Ellen G. White Publications.
