About the International Sunday-School Lesson

Just a word concerning the article that appears each week with a footnote indicating that it deals with the International Sunday-school lesson.

We know that many Sunday-school teachers make use of these articles in preparing their lessons; but they are not written solely for the benefit of the comparatively few Sunday-School teachers among the thousands of Present Truth readers.

If the articles were of value only to those few, we should hardly feel justified in devoting so much space to them; but the case is this, that the articles are as general in their nature, and as much designed for the general reader and Bible student as for teachers.

Those who have no connection with any Sunday-school can read them with as much profit as those who do. We simply take advantage of the fact that some are especially interested in a certain portion of Scripture at a certain time, to provide matter of value to all.--Present Truth, February 13, 1902.
