ON THE FIRST FOURTEEN HISTORICAL BOOKS OF THE OLD TESTAMENT; ALSO ON THE FIRST NINE PROPHETICAL BOOKS. BY SAMUEL HORSLEY, L. L. D. F. R.S. F. A. S. LATE LORD BISHOP OF ST. ASAPH. IN FOUR VOLUMES. VOL. I. LONDON: PRINTED FOR LONGMAN, HURST, REES, ORME, & BROWN, AND F. C. & J. RIVINGTON. JAN 10 1927 ·H78 ī ADVERTISEMENT. THE detached and unconnected form in which the contents of the present Volumes were found among the papers of the late Bishop HORSLEY, made the Editor for some time doubtful on the propriety of their publication. But having himself derived considerable benefit and assistance from them in the prosecution of his professional studies, and being satisfied that, although they present not a finished and elaborate illustration of the Scriptural Books to which they relate, they do nevertheless comprise a valuable mass of important Biblical Criticism, he has at last determined to offer them to the attention of the Theological and Hebrew Scholar. |
