" The, Author seems to have negleded no advantage either
from printed hooks or, manuscripts dirt was attainable. We
cannot suppose that-any • student of the 13ible- mill omit to
avaif•hirnsell of so useful a •seledion."-,-Evangelical Maga-
zine:March, 1808. •
"'The Work before 'is has not only been composed with
considerable labour, Mit this labour will be produttive 'of
much utility. The arrangement of the observations, accord-
ing to the order of Scripture, will reoder the Work an ac-
ceptable hook of reference toclivines and biblical scholars."—
