Présentation de l'éditeur

It might perhaps appear strange that in studies like Biblical geography and chronology, which have been so abundantly treated of, and from so many points of view, there should yet remain important discoveries to be gleaned; but the enigma is solved when it is considered that the exegetes have seldom drawn their chronology and geography regarded by them as subordinate questions from the sources themselves, but have received them at second or third hand; that, on the other hand, professional geographers and chronologists, even the Masters among them, are no exegetes, but are often misled by inaccurate translations of the Gospels. This evil I have earnestly striven to avoid, inasmuch as in all the sources I have had recourse to the original text, and that, in addition to the sources of which my predecessors have availed themselves, I have ransacked the books of Jewish tradition hitherto, to the great loss of the cause, too much neglected. The literature bearing on the subject is not easily accessible ;the Patristic, arcliieological, and Talmudic writings, as well as the descriptions of travels, are often diflicult to find. The more am I under obligations on this account to honoured friends who have been helpful to me in this respect, especially to Professor Beuss of Strassburg, as we Uas to the librarians of the City Library at Strassburg, and of the Protestant and Catholic Seminary Libraries there, who have favoured me with advice and help. And so may this little book, notwithstanding its defects and imperfections, go its way under the Lords blessing. Ch. Ed. Caspari. Geudertheim, A lsace, 2ith September 1868. This famous library no longer exists.
