HEBREW MEN AND TIMES

FROM THE

Patriarchs to the Messiah.

BY JOSEPH HENRY ALLEN,

LECTURER ON ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY IN HARVARD University. New Edition, with an Introduction on the results of recent Old Testament criticism. Chronological Outline and Index. 16mo. Price, $1.50.

TOPICS: 1. The Patriarchs; 2. Moses; 3. The Judges; 4. David; 5. Solomon; 6. The Kings; 7. The Law; 8. The Prophets; 9. The Captivity; 10. The Maccabees; II. The Alexandrians; 12. The Messiah.

Extract from the Preface: "... There seemed room and need of a clear, brief sketch, or outline; one that should spare the details and give the results of scholarship; that should trace the historical sequences and connections, without being tangled in questions of mere erudition, or literary discussions, or theological polemics; that should preserve the honest independence of scholarly thought, along with the temper of Christian faith; that should not lose from sight the broad perspective of secular history, while it should recognize at each step the hand of Providence as manifest in Israel.' Such a want as this the present volume aims to meet."

Rev. O. B. Frothingham in the Christian Examiner.

"We shall be satisfied to have excited interest enough in the theme to induce readers to take up Mr. Allen's admirable book and trace through all the richness and variety of his detail the eventful history of this Hebrew thought. His pages, with which we have no fault to find save the very uncommon fault of being too crowded and too few, will throw light on many things which must be utterly dark now to the unlearned mind; they will also revive the declining respect for a venerable people, and for a faith to which we owe much more than some of us suspect. For, however untrammelled Mr. Allen's criticism may be, his thought is always serious and reverential. And the reader of his pages, while confessing that their author has cleared away many obstructions in the way of history, will confess also that he has only made freer the access to the halls of faith. There is no light or loose or unbecoming sentence in the volume. There is no insincere paragraph. There is no heedless line. And this perhaps is one of the greatest charms of the book; for it is rare indeed that both intellect and heart are satisfied with the same letters."
