TO THE OLD TESTAMENT BEING A Plain Commentary on Scripture DOWN TO THE BIRTH OF OUR LORD "Understandest thou what thou readest?"—ACTS viii. 30 RIVINGTONS London, Oxford, and Cambridge 1872 A 101. i. 87. ८ THIS ADVERTISEMENT HIS work having been arranged in a very condensed form, there has been no space available for arguments or for lengthy comments, but the grounds of many statements, and the illustration of one part of Holy Scripture by another, are carefully suggested in the bracketted references, to which the reader's attention is particularly directed. The Chronology of the work is mainly that of Ussher, as used in the modern English Bible: but the Author has not hesitated to adopt a different date where the reasons for doing so seemed to be sufficiently wellgrounded. June 1, 1872. |
