Chapter titles came rather naturally as the material was prepared, being representative of the subject matter. The Bible narrative suggested some, but there was some paralleling with chapter titles used by others who wrote on Christ's life. Selection was based on appropriateness and reader appeal. The title for the finished book would wait. 4BIO 385.2
Reference has already been made to the use Ellen White made of William Hanna's Life of Our Lord and Cunningham Geikie's Life and Words of Christ twenty years earlier when she was in California writing on Christ's life. She was acquainted with Daniel March's Walks and Homes of Jesus, and his Night Scenes in the Bible. Geikie's Hours With the Bible and Edersheim's works on the Temple and its services and Jewish social life were known to her as well as some others. While, as noted these books did not constitute what might be said to be her sources, they proved an aid to her in her descriptions of places, customs, and historical events. 4BIO 385.3
