Immediately he set to work. He gave Barbour some money and authorized him to return to Rochester to begin preparation of a book which they were to co-author. He purposed to set forth for the first time in printed form a Scriptural explanation of the blessings of the restitution combined with the time prophecies of Christ's second presence. This book, The Three Worlds, was published in 1877. |
Inmediatamente se puso manos a la obra. Le dio algún dinero a Barbour y le autorizó a regresar a Rochester para comenzar a preparar un libro del que serían co-autores.

Este libro, The Three Worlds (Tres Mundos), se publicó en 1877. |

Russell now determined to curtail his business and spend his entire time traveling and preaching. It became clear to him at once that, while public lectures aroused interest, something was needed to hold and develop it. To accomplish this he determined to begin active publication of a monthly journal. Although Barbour was acquainted with printing and had been editor of the Herald for some years, he raised a number of objections as to the advisability of reorganizing the printing establishment. |
Russell decidió arrinconar su negocio y dedicar todo su tiempo a viajar y predicar. Enseguida vio claramente que, aunque los discursos públicos despertaban interés, se requería algo más para mantenerlo y cultivarlo. Para lograr esto, decidió comenzar a publicar una revista mensual. Aunque Barbour estaba familiarizado con la impresión y había sido redactor del Herald durante varios años, presentó varias objeciones respecto a la conveniencia de reorganizar la imprenta. |

However, Russell had real enthusiasm for the work and finally it was agreed for Barbour to buy new type and other printing equipment, which Russell himself paid for. So publication of Herald of the Morning was resumed, with Barbour as editor and Russell associate editor. |
Sin embargo, Russell tenía verdadero entusiasmo por la obra, y finalmente convinieron que Barbour compraría nuevos tipos y otros materiales de imprenta, los cuales pagó el propio Russell. De este modo se reanudó la publicación del Herald of the Morning, con Barbour como redactor jefe y Russell como corredactor. |
