Commentary continuously to the close of theE pistly 4o the Hebrews. It completes and more than completes the original plan of the Publishers, which was merely to republish the work so far as it had already appeared in English. It embraces in addition to that, Wiesinger sE xposi tion of theS econd Epistle toT imothy and theE pistle toP hilemon, translated by theE ditor. It leaves the Catholic Epistles of James, Peter, John and Jude, and the Revelation, which will be com prised in another volume when the German work shall be com pleted. The Editor cannot forbear to add his belief that the present volume will not be found inferior in interest and value to any of its predecessors. Wiesinger is throughout thorough, exact and judicious, displaying most of the best features, with few of the faults, of German exegesis :is clear in his views, and hearty in the defence, both of the divine authority and the evangelical teachings of the works which he expounds. Ebrard, with higher genius and greater breadth of view,, is, indeed, sometimes over confident and bold, yet in the main trustworthy, and often extremely happy in his interpretations. He has the art, to which few Germans aspire, of developing his views with clearness, spirit and elegance. In his translation of Wiesinger, theE ditor has found it necessary to study brevity, and has occasionally omitted a very few of the numerous and sometimes scarcely necessary references to other commentators. May the work thus far completed be made, in the hands of theD ivine Spirit, the means of abundant blessing to the Church.
