To BIBLE STUDENTS. We take pleasure in an
nouncing to the public that the recent and most
excellent Commentary. by Jameson, Faus-
set, and Brown, is being canyassed for in Wash
ington county and other parts Of the State.
The following are reasons for its being more
desirable than any other commentary now in
use LIST. Its conciseness, enabling the seeker
after truth to find just what be or she wants,
in the fewest words. ID. This condensation Of
truth has enabled the authors to present all the
comments that are actually needed, on both
Old and New Testaments, into one volume thus
reducing the expense Of publishing and bring
ing the work within tho means of the hum
best laborer. 3D.. its freshness; being the
latest of anything of tho kind published, it
embraces the recent scientific Investigations,
proving many difficult points Of Scripture hth-
erto unknown.
The work is meeting with large patronage
and is recommended by the ablest scholars Of
all denominations, and warrants perfect salts
faction to every person who will use it.
