Writer has been to direct the Reader sattention to THE BIBLE :to lead him to study the pure Scriptures diligently, and to point out the vast importance of seeking the help of the Holy Spirit. He has endeavoured to add such hints as might assist the Reader to study practically and profitably ;give him, clear views of the various parts of Divine Truth ;and remove apparent difficulties. The most important points which demand attention, are then summed up in several Practical Rules, and the whole is concluded with a few Scripture Prayers, and an Index of Texts and of Subjects. Although much has been wisely and usefully done to illustrate the Bible by Commentaries, yet it is evidently of great importance, that it should not be chiefly studied through the medium of uninspired authors. There is a majestic authority, an unaffected and beautiful simplicity and plainness in the Holy Scriptures, which speaks more powerfully to the heart, than the most laboured exposi tions.
