A Lady Who Mastered Hebrew to Read Scripture

A LADY died lately in the neighborhood of New York, who studied and mastered the Hebrew language, in order that she might be able to read the Old Testament in the original. Her work was a private one. She was not known as a student. Hers was a lovely Christian character, and she was a thorough searcher into the word of God. She therefore became thoroughly conversant with the Hebrew, and has sometimes been heard to say, of the Old Testament thus studied, “I can give you no idea of the riches and fullness of meaning; it is untranslatable.”
