LUCK,

"The translation of Tholuck's Commentary on John will help to do away the opinion still too prevalent, that the writings of German theologians are valuable for little else than as repositories of exegetical learning. The commentary on John, though professedly exegetical in its character, contains much that appeals directly to the spiritual apprehension of Christians; much that is not drawn from learned authorities, but from communion with the writer's own heart, and with the Spirit of God." Andover Biblical Repository, vol. vii. April 1836, pp. 440, 441.)

2 vols. 12mo.

This work forms Vols. V. and XII. of the Edinburgh Biblical Cabinet. The learned author, Professor Tholuck, has had the distinguished honour of standing foremost among the defenders of ancient orthodoxy against the modern neologians of Germany: and "the Commentary on the Epistle to the Romans is the most important work which has hitherto proceeded from his pen. The universal approbation it has received from the friends of evangelical truth, and the fierce hostility with which it has been assailed by the rationalist party in Germany," (where, notwithstanding, it has passed through many editions,)" afford the most satisfactory evidence of its distinguished worth." (Translator's preface, p. xii.) Professor Stuart, in the preface to his admirable work on the epistle to the Romans (p. vii.), has expressed the highest approbation of Dr. Tholuck's labours, to which he acknowledges himself "most of all indebted." The purchaser of Professor Stuart's work will find it desirable to study Dr. T.'s Exposition in connection with it. The translator has ably performed his difficult task, and has enriched the volume with an instructive preface.

As Mr. Haldane had commented rather severely on Dr. Tholuck, the translator of the professor's Exposition in 1838 published an "Answer to Mr. Robert Haldane's Strictures," in 8vo. Tholuck rejects the horribile decretum of Calvin, which Mr. Haldane fully receives. Mr. Menzies has temperately replied to his strictures. 107*.

An abridgment of this commentary on the Epistle to the Romans was published by the author in 1836, which was reprinted by the Religious Tract Society of London in 1837, in one volume, 12mo. 108*.

152. The Apostolical Authority of the Epistle to the Hebrews an Inquiry, in which the received Title of the Epistle is vindicated against the cavils of Objectors, ancient and modern, from Origen to Sir J. D. Michaelis, chiefly upon grounds of internal evidence hitherto unnoticed: comprising a comparative Analysis of the style and structure of this epistle, and of the undisputed epistles of St. Paul; tending to throw light upon their Interpretation. By the Rev. Charles FORSTER, B.D. London, 1838. 8vo.

In Vol. IV. of the Introduction to the Critical Study of the Seriptures, pp. 409-422. the genuineness and apostolical authority of St Paul's Epistle to the Hebrews have been proved by a selection of the most striking evidences, both external and internal: but it has been reserved for the learned author of this work to demonstrate that apostolical authority by a mass of argument and evidence, t more original than ingenious and delightful to the Biblical Student, who will attentively study his volume. Having refuted the cavis of ancient and modern objectors, from Origen to Michaelis, the atthor proceeds to adduce his evidence in fourteen sections: in which he shows the identity of manner between the epistle to the He brews and St. Paul's undisputed epistles in the use of particula words, and gives copious tables:-1. of the New Testament word peculiar to the epistle to the Hebrews, and the undisputed episte of St. Paul, as well as, 2. of words peculiar to the epistle to the Hebrews, (which are not found elsewhere, either in the New Te tament, the Septuagint, or the Apocrypha,) with their parallel ve bal dependencies; and 3. of words occasionally occurring elsewhere in the New Testament, but in the manner, the frequency, of their occurrence, peculiar to the epistle to the Hebrews and the unde puted epistles of St. Paul. The author then institutes an examination of some leading parallel passages from the epistle to the Hebrews and St. Paul's undisputed epistles; and shows the identity of manner between that epistle and the undisputed epistles of the apostle in the use of favourite words, in the habit of going off at a word,' in the use of the paronomasia or play upon words, in q tations and modes of quotation from the Old Testament, in the use of key-texts. A copious table of the harmony of parallel passages between the epistle to the Hebrews and the undisputed epistles of St. Paul, is then subjoined. Having thus proved the Pauline origi nal of the Epistle to the Hebrews from internal evidence, the learned author advances to a re-examination of the external evidences, including the testimonies of the apostolical fathers and those of Pastænus, Clemens Alexandrinus, and Origen; and adduces a powerful argument in proof that by the epistle of St. Paul, referred to in

the epistle to the Hebrews is intended, which 1 from the internal marks of reference to Hen both his epistles.

DUTRIPON, Theologi et Professoris. Parisiis, 1838.

This is the latest as it is the most complete edition of the Concordances hitherto published for the Latin Vulgate Version of the Bible. It is one of the most beautiful specimens of typography, which ever issued from the Parisian press.

This map is executed in the same style of elegance and with the same accuracy as Mr. Mimpriss's map for illustrating the gospel history. It deserves, and it is to be hoped that it will receive, a patronage not inferior to that, which has been deservedly bestowed upon his first map.

ADDENDA TO THE MISCELLANEOUS ILLUSTRATIONS OF SCRIP TURE, FROM VOYAGES AND TRAVELS IN THE EAST, AND FROM

OTHER SOURCES.

Page 162. col. 2. After the last line, add

1. Landscape Illustrations of the Bible, consisting of Views of the most remarkable places mentioned in the Old and New Testaments. From Original Sketches taken on the Spot [by the most eminent modern travellers, British and Foreign], engraved by W. and E. FINDEN: with descriptions by the Rev. Thomas Hartwell HORNE, B.D. London, 1836. 2 vols. 8vo., 4to., or large folio, with proof-engravings on India paper.

Nearly one hundred of the principal scenes mentioned in the Scriptures are delineated in these volumes with equal fidelity and beauty: the descriptions have been drawn up from the manuscript communications of many of the travellers by whom the views were sketched, (all whose names are specified in the work), and from other authentic sources, which are indicated at the close of each description. These Landscape Illustrations were subsequently printed and arranged in the order of books and chapters of Scripture, in three volumes 8vo. intitled "The Biblical Keepsake." London, 1835-37.

2. Syria, the Holy Land, Asia Minor, &c., illustrated in a Series of Views, drawn from nature, by W. H. Bartlett, William Purser, and others. With descriptions by John CARNE, Esq. London, 1838, 3 vols. 4to.

The views delineated in this work are for the most part different from those in the "Landscape Illustrations of the Bible." They are beautifully executed, and the descriptions are well drawn up by Mr. Carne, whose residence in the East some years since fitted him for such an undertaking.

17. Scripture Illustrations: being a Series of Engravings on steel and wood, illustrative of the Geography and Topography of the Bible. With Explanations and Remarks by the Rev. J. A. LA TROBE, M.A. London, 1838. 4to.

18mo.

19. The Oriental Key to the Sacred Scriptures, as they are illustrated by the existing Rites, Usages, and Domestic Manners of Eastern Nations. By M. de CORBETT. London, 1837. 18mo. 20. Twelve Lectures on the connexion between Science and Revealed Religion, delivered in Rome by Nicholas WISEMAN, D.D. London, 1836. 2 vols. 8vo. Reprinted at New York, 1837, in one volume 8vo.

This is one of the most entertaining as well as useful works which learning and ingenuity have produced, for confirming the truth of the Holy Scriptures. The lectures were first delivered, as a course introductory to the study of theology, by Dr. Wiseman, to the pupils in the English college at Rome, an institution for the education of ministers of the Romish Communion in England. In 1835, they were repeated to a large and attentive auditory, and again at London in 1836. "We welcome this book as a valuable and interesting addition to the cumulative department of the Christian Evidences, ... The book is executed in a fair and catholic spirit. It might have been expected that the author would be careful to render this work an instrument for advancing the reputation of his own system to the disparagement of others: but it is gratifying in this instance to be able to acquit him of such a design." (Congregational Magazine, March, 1838, pp. 167. 176.)

21. Illustrations of the Holy Scriptures, derived principally from the Manners, Customs, Antiquities, Traditions, and Forms of Speech, Rites, Climate, Works of Art, and Literature, of the Eastern Nations; embodying all that is valuable in the Works of Roberts, Harmer, Burder, Paxton, Chandler, and the most celebrated Oriental Travellers; embracing also the Subject of the Fulfilment of Prophecy, as exhibited by Keith and others. With Descriptions of the Present State of Countries and Places mentioned in the Sacred Writings, illustrated by numerous Landscape Engravings, from Sketches taken on the spot. Edited by the Rev. George Bush, Professor of Hebrew and Oriental Literature in the New York City University. Brattleboro' [Vermont], 1836. Imperial 8vo.

scape Illustrations of the Bible" (supra, No. 1.), Mr. Bush has expressed himself more especially indebted. By far the greater part of Mr. R.'s admirable work, as well as of the engravings and descriptions of the "Landscape Illustrations," are incorporated in this volume, which is neatly executed. The texts illustrated are printed in larger type than the Illustrations, which are disposed in the order of the books, chapters, and verses of Scripture.

22. Holy Scripture verified: or, the Divine Authority of the Bible confirmed by an Appeal to Facts of Science, History, and Human Consciousness. By George REDFORD, D.D. LL.D. London, 1837. 8vo.

"This work is a series of lectures, in which, if there be things that, under various shapes, have repeatedly been discussed.... there is likewise a body of evidence, which has rarely, if ever, been applied to the inquiry. The plan and design of the lectures are good; and the points of view, in which the truth of Holy Scripture is exhibited, are numerous and very complete." (Church of England Quarterly Review, July, 1838. p. 350.)

23. Rationalism and Revelation: or, the Testimony of Moral Philosophy, the System of Nature, and the Constitution of Man, to the Truth of the Doctrines of Scripture, in eight Discourses preached before the University of Cambridge, being the Hulsean Lecture for the year 1837. By the Rev. Richard PARKINS05, B.D. London, 1838. 8vo.

This original and important volume contains an able view of the testimonies to the truth of Scripture, furnished by ethical philoso phy, the intellectual powers, the ultimate destiny of the body, the relation of men to external things, the relation of men to each other, and by the relation of man to himself.

24. Illustrations of the Bible from the Monuments of Egypt London, 1838. 8vo. By W. C. TAYLOR, LL.D.

In the sixth edition of this "Introduction to the Critical Study of the Scriptures," published in 1828, Egyptian antiquities were for the first time (at least in this country) applied to the collateral coo firmation and illustration of the Holy Scriptures. Since that date, great light has been thrown upon this interesting branch of archae logy by the magnificent publications of Signor Rosellini, at Turin, and of M. M. Champollion and Cailliaud, at Paris. By the diligent study of their labours, Dr. Taylor (whose work was published while this sheet was passing through the press) has considerably extended this mode of demonstrating the historical veracity of the sacred writers, by means of the new and undesigned confirmations of their marr tives, furnished by the remains of Egyptian art. Nearly three ba dred texts of Scripture are more or less explained in this eleganty executed volume, and in a manner equally curious and interesting A portion of Dr. T.'s work was published in the ably-conducted journal, "The Athenæum", in which his researches excited mach and deserved attention. It is now corrected and enlarged, and a illustrated with one hundred well-executed engravings on wood; and it offers a valuable acquisition to the library of every Bib Student.

In the Saturday Magazine for the years 1837 and 1838 there are several interesting illustrations of Scripture from the remains of Egyptian antiquity; but the most complete view of those re liques of ages long since past (in which are numerous elucidation of Scripture) will be found in the "Manners and Customs of the Ancient Egyptians." By J. G. Wilkinson, Esq., London, 1837, 3 vols. 8vo.

Selection of Single Names and Chronological Tables of the King of Egypt, Syria, and Assyria: with Notes, critical, philological, and explanatory, and copious Indexes. By the Rev. Gilbert BBRINGTON, M.A. London, 1836. 2 vols. 4to.

This very elaborate work is divided into three parts, viz. The first contains the genealogies of the Old Testament and Apocrypha; the second, a collection of single names mentioned in the Old Tes tament and Apocrypha, independently of those mentioned in the genealogical tables; and the third, genealogical tables of the kind of Egypt, Syria, and Assyria, mentioned in the Bible. The whûle is illustrated by copious notes, critical, philological, and explana tory, which are the result of long and laborious study; and whch This volume is avowedly compiled from the works of forty-six materially elucidate many verbal and chronological difficulties.
