TRANSLATED BY A. J. K. DAVIDSON. In the work before us, Lechler works out this conception with great skill, and with ample historical and critical knowledge. He has had the advantage of all the discussions of these forty years, and he has made good use of them. The book is up to date; so thoroughly is this the case, that he has been able to make room for the results which have been won for the early history of Christianity by the discovery of the "Didachè," and of the discussions to which it has given occasion. Nor is it too much to say that Dr. Lechler has neglected nothing fitted to throw light on his great theme. The work is of the highest value.'-Spectator. 'It contains a vast amount of historical information, and is replete with judicious remarks. . . By bringing under the notice of English readers a work so favourably thought of in Germany, the translator has conferred a benefit on theology.'-Athenæum.

ΤΟ Emil SCHÜRER'S HISTORY OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE IN THE TIME OF CHRIST. Translated by REV. JOHN MACPHERSON, M.A., FINDHORN. EDINBURGH: T. & T. CLARK, 38 GEORGE STREET. DS .53913 1885 Index PREFATORY NOTE. In accordance with the strongly expressed wish of Professor Schürer, his elaborate and carefully compiled Index has been faithfully reproduced in English for the benefit of students of his History of the Jewish People in the Time of Jesus Christ. The need of an Index for so extensive and thorough-going a treatise as that which has now been completed in five English volumes, will be apparent to all who are in any measure acquainted with the work. The English edition has been issued almost contemporaneously with the German, the last two volumes having been translated from proof-sheets forwarded by the author from time to time as the printing of the original advanced. The figures used in the Index references indicate respectively the Division (I. II.), the volume in each Division (1. i. ii.; II. i. ii. iii.), and the page. At the end of this volume are given the Additions and Corrections which Professor Schürer wishes to be made to Division II. Those supplied by the author for Division I. are given at the close of vol. ii. of that Division. JOHN MACPHERSON. FINDHORN, FORRES, 20th December 1890. iii |
