RECOMMENDATIONS

Of Clergymen in the City of New-York.

FROM a cursory examination of the Principles of prophetic interpretation, and the Illustration of these Principles in their application to various leading prophecies, contained in a little work prepared by the Rev. Mr. Jones, I am disposed to believe, that the publication of the work will be useful as a means of instruction and edification. It is a little work, terse, full of thought, and free from all needless verbiage.

Having seen a brief outline of the work on prophetic interpretation, to be published by the Rev. Mr. Jones, I concur in the above opinion expressed by Rev. Dr. Knox in its recommendation. While unable to judge of all the principles contained in it, in the reading of a condensed sketch, I hesitate not to believe that its publication will be useful. THOMAS DE WITT,

I have examined "the twenty-four Principles" laid down by the Rev. Mr. Jones, in his manuscript for the Illustration of Scriptural Prophecies. They appear to me reasonable, just, and scriptural.
