WORKS by

JOSEPH F. THRUPP, M.A. Vicar of Barrington, late Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge.

1. INTRODUCTION to the STUDY and USE of

THE PSALMS.

2 Vols. 8vo. (1861) 215. "Mr. Thrupp's learned, sound and sensible work fills a gap hitherto unfilled by any of its predecessors. It is the work of a painstaking and careful Hebrew scholar, of a sound English divine, and of an interpreter singularly fair and straightforward.”— Guardian.

is not merely historical or antiquarian, but Or, The Five Books of Moses.

it is to illustrate Scripture: and those who read it with this view will find reason to be grateful to the Author for the assistance it affords towards obtaining more clear and definite ideas of the variou: localities, with the names of which they are familiar, and which, from so many sacred associations and their spiritual and typical use, are invested with perpetual and universal interest." Literary Churchman.

3. THE SONG OF SONGS.

A Revised Translation, with Introduction and Commentary. Crown 8vo. cloth. (1862) 7s. 6d. The object of this volume is to unfold the meaning of one of the least appreciated portions of Holy Scripture. The conclusions of sober criticism will here be found to accord with the traditions of Christian teaching, and the more closely the Song is examined, the less compatible will its language and structure prove with any other theme than than that of the mutual love of the Incarnate Son of God and his redeemed Church.

Translated into English from the Version of the LXX. With Notes on its Omissions and Insertions, and also on the Passages in which it differs from the Authorised Version. By the Hon. HENRY HOWARD, D.D., Dean of Lichfield. Crown 8vo. cl. GENESIS, I Vol. 8s. 6d.; EXODUS AND LEVITICUS, I vol. 10s. 6d. ; NUMBERS AND DEUTERONOMY, I vol. 10s. 6d.

These books were primarily intended for the use of Candidates for the Cambridge Theological Examinations, but it was felt that they might be useful to other Students of Holy Writ: the younger Clergy in particular, who often after taking up the LXX. are tempted to lay it down again with a feeling of dissatisfaction and perplexity through meeting with discrepancies which they have not the means at hand or the leisure to reconcile for themselves; and yet there are few pursuits more useful to the Biblical student.

WORKS by the Rt. Rev. J. W. COLENSO, D.D. Lord Bishop of Natal.

I.

ST. PAUL'S EPISTLE TO

THE ROMANS.

Newly Translated, and Explained from a Missionary point of view. Crown 8vo. cloth, price 7s. 6d.

The teaching of the great Apostle to the Gentiles is here applied to some questions which daily arise in Missionary labours among the heathen, more directly than is usual with those commentators, who have not been engaged personally in such a work, but have written from a different point of view in the midst of a state of

advanced civilization and settled Christianity. Hence they have usually passed by altogether, or only touched very lightly upon, many points, which are of great importance to Missionaries, but which seemed to be of no immediate practical interest for themselves or their readers.

The views advanced in this book are the results of seven years of Missionary experience, as well as of many years of previous close study of this Epistle.

A COMMENTARY ON THE BOOK OF GENESIS. For the Use of Students and Readers of the English Version of the Bible. By the Rev. H. C. GROVES, M. A., Perpetual Curate of Mullavilly, Armagh.

Crown 8vo. cloth, 9s.

In the course of the last thirty years much has been done to elucidate the text of the Pentateuch, to clear away the uncertainties and obscurities involving the Geographical and Historical notices contained in it, and to dispose of the objections which the disclosures made by the rapid advance of several branches of Physical Science were supposed to present to the statements of this part of Scripture. To bring the information on these various points within the reach of the general reader is the object of this Commentary; in the formation of which have been consulted the works containing the latest results of the investigations in sacred criticism and exegesis, in Biblical Geography and History, and in science considered in relation to religion.

TEN CENTURIES.

AND THEIR BENEFICIAL INFLUENCE ON EUROPEAN PROGRESS.

By HENRY MACKENZIE, B. A., late Scholar of Trinity College, Cambridge.

Crown 8vo. cloth, 6s. 6d.

It is endeavoured in this work to trace, during the first ten centuries of our era, by which the Christian religion was diffused the leading features of that mighty scheme through so many lands, and proclaimed in so many various tongues: neither the enduring remains of the constitution of Rome, nor the vigorous but shapeless energy of invading barbarism, can present to us more matter of interest or of instruction than the progress and influence of the Christian clergy during the earlier ages of their history.

Principles of Causes and

Thoughts on the
Truth and the
Effects of Error. By JOHN
HAMILTON, M. A. (of St. Ern-
an's), St. John's Coll. Cambridge.

Crown 8vo. cloth, 5s.

In order to assist the author's own researches after Truth, and to test his provings, he has been all along in the habit of writing a good deal, and endeavouring to put his views of Truth into every form he could think of, in order afterwards to be able to review and criticise himself. This he has endeavoured to do with that unsparing strictness which a man must value who is in pursuit of THE TRUTH-that truth which he is urged to seek by the highest assurance that when acquired "the truth shall make you free." This volume is composed of some of these writings. If they lead a few! to seek the truth, under God's guidance, and to show how unspeakably more bright and glorious it is than they had conceived, or could conceive while shut up in the narrow circle of what is ordinarily called "the Christian Scheme," my object is

attained.

In

OF BELIEF
connexion with the Creation and
By THOMAS RAW-
SON BIRKS, M. A., Rector of
Kelshall, and Author of "The
Life of the Rev. E. Bickersteth."

Crown 8vo. cloth, 4s. 6d. The object of this Book is to remove some of those difficulties which have often haunted thoughtful and enquiring minds, when they reflect on the deeper truths and more solemn aspects of religion, both natural and revealed. The aim is not to awaken the sense of difficulty in their minds, but to relieve the depth of these shadows, where they have been felt already in their chilling and depressing power.

[blocks in formation]

By JAMES THOMAS O'BRIEN, D.D., Bishop of Ossory, formerly Fellow of Trinity College, Dublin. Third Edition. Svo. (1863)

This work, originally published in 1833 was out of print for thirty years, when a Second and enlarged Edition was published in 1862, which was very speedily sold off and the present Edition called for. The chief object of the work is to aid Theological Students in coming to right views upon the fundamental Doctrine, and of impressing upon them a due sense of its importance. In the Notes the author has taken great pains to give authorities from the Confessions of Protestant Churches and the writings of the eminent Protestant divines of the Reformation period for the statements contained in the work.

[blocks in formation]

The value of the study of the Synonyms of the New Testament as a discipline for training the mind into close and accurate habits of thought, the amount of instruction which may be drawn from it, the increase of intellectual wealth which it may yield, is great and well recognised. The words of the New Testament are eminently the σroixela of Christian theology, and he who will not begin with a patient study of these shall never make any considerable, least of all any secure, advances in this. This work is the result of patient study gathered during many years.

CREATION IN PLAN AND IN PROGRESS. Being an Essay on the First Chapter of Genesis. By the Rev. JAMES CHALLIS, M.A., F.R.S., F.R.A.S., Plumian Professor of Astronomy in the University of Cambridge.

Crown 8vo. cloth, 3s. 6d. The course of the reasoning followed is intended to be conveyed by the title, Creation in Plan and in Progress: namely, that the creation, being a work, must have been, like every other work, designed as well as executed, and that this twofold view of it is in the Scriptures.
