Mr. (ieorge Hague, the well known Canadian banker, in this volume to make tinliving thoughts of Holy Scrip ture speak profitably to the life of today. After a liftlong study of Jod s Word, and of modern ideas connected with its inspiration, lie takes the position that the Scrip tures are the Word of r.od. containing in the strictest sense the will of !od, and hence of Divine authority. demanding from man unquestioning obedience to its precepts and belief in its doctrines. Mr. Hague sstyle is clear, concise and telling, and whilst lie plainly avoids elaborate arguments on disputed points in the onward How of his exegesis, he by no means leaves them unnoticed, appending to each chapter a definite note on each point as it arises, such notes plainly showing that the writer, whilst essentially orthodox in hi teaching, is fully abreast of the times, and capable of speaking with authority as a well-read man. This work is the work of years, the printed harvest of tl.e springtime and summer of a singularly busy and sue cessful life. It is given by a busy man to busy readers, at the very time that such a work on the Pentateuch i needed, a time when men are surfeited by attack, and are glad to listen to a restatement of the old views, written bv one who knows well the dangers that are connected with modern critical thought, and the unreliability of the ever shifting and contradictory views that have been poured forth from the press on the subject of the Pentateuch. .IAS. OARMICTTAKL. Dean of Montreal. .T annarv. 1000.
