A NEW LITERAL TRANSLATION, from
the Original Greek, of all the APOS For .iCAL EPISTLES,
with a C•MMENTART and Nat.'s, Philological, elided, Ex-
planatory, and Practical. To which is added, a History of the
LIFE of the APOSTLE PAUL.
By JAMES NiACKNIGHT, D.D.
late one of the Ministers of Edinburgh.
To which is prefixed, an ACCOUNT of the LIT of the
AUTHOR. Second Edition, 6 vols. two. beards, 135 '.d.
Of his Commentary on the Apostolicale Epistles, the rapid sale
is a sufficient proof of the great estimation in which it 13 held.
The Bishop of Lincoln mentior.3 it, along with ' The Harmony,'
in the first class of boots, which he says every Clergyman ought
to possess—Elements of Christian Theology, preface, page 16.
Another observation to the sante effect is mule by the learned
Mr. Parkhurst, who, in t Iv! Note relative to the last edition of
his Greek J.exi:nn, calls the work in question, " Dr. M.'s lu-
&nous and valuable Commentary on the Apoitn!:zal a
Work highly meriting a place la title Library of every C'sristian
Divine."
Dr. Macknight's " Commer.tary generally gives the true sense
of the text, in a r outc4e form. With rat Notes espc:ially, we
have often bees highly gratified. . fhey contain .ntue.ll cs ful in-
formation, requisite to umierstand fully the meanirg of the pas-
sages to which they arc su!quinc4.l; they oec tiotrdly illustrate the
beauties of sentiment and language in the Epistle +, and not unfre-
quently contain important practical remarks. Considering it ge-
nerally us a work of real utility and excellence, we chef fully re-
commend it to readers of every class, who can easily compass the
purchase, autl espcci.ttly to the biblical student and Christian mi-
nister."—Eelectic Review, July, ItSO7.
The late Dr. Macknizht, of Edinburgh, Is universally acknow-
ledged to have been one of the moat intelligent, judicious, and
candid Pxpositors of the Sacred Writings that ever appeared ; and
.the reputation of his Works for sound criticism, extensive know-
ledge, and clear elucidation of Scripture by itself, is rapidly in-
cressMg among Christians of every denomination. In proof e f
thia we need only refer to the most respectable literary Journals
in the hands of the Public ; as well as to numerous testimonies,
not only from the highest Dignitaries of the Church of England,
but from the ablest Divines of all descriptions, both at home ants
abroad.

natural order of each is preserved ; with a Paraphrase and Notes,

Life and Character of the Author, 2 vela. 3d elitien,

three Books, by the same, etto. boards, 18s.
This Work has been admitted, by the brit judges, to be a per-
formance as able and instructive as any which we have on that
important subject. Quoting a section of this Work, the cclebrred
Bishop of Llandaff, in the fifth page of the Contents to the lifth
Volume of his Theological Tracts, says, " Young men should
render this short Tract familiar to them, by a frequent perusal of
it : they will find in it very concise, but satisfactory answers to
many objections respecting some parts cf our Scbtan a'f conduct,
the possibility and the credibility of Miracles, &c." The same
eminent Author also copies at great length from this Work, the
argument for the Truth of the Christian Religion, arising from
the Conversion of the World so Christianity. Ar.d it is well known
that the chief materials of Paley's Fivider.ces are w be found In
Dr. M's . Truth of the Gospel History.

cond EPISTLES to the THESSALONIANS, with a Commen-
tary and Notes,by the same, 4to. 6s.
'lle above is a specimen of the Doctor's Learned Conmtmory,
and a few copies may be bad separate., the price of which will be
deducted to the purchasers of the complete work.
A HISTORY of the LIFE of the APOSTLE PAUL,by whom
the Gentiles were converted, accompanied wiib proofs and illus-
trations, by Dr Macknight, 410. boards, es.
We think so highly of this part of the works (viz. the Life of
St. Paul) as leading to explain a considerable portion of the Acts
of the Apostles, as well as the Espisdes of Paul, that we could
wish to see it published in a separate form.
