We therefore deem the work of Professors Sandersand Kent one of the most important among those recently undertakenfor the popularizing of biblical study. Bishop John H. Vincent, , I regard it as a book of great value. Its power is in its simplicity,vividness, interpretative paraphrase, marginal outline; and there is a cer-tain tone of authority, a certain weirdness in the style, which makes onefeel as if he heard the prophet crying out in his protest and the eloquence of the prophet burns in its pages. The book isone which an unschooled layman may read with profit. What a lectureclass or senior class might be organized for the critical study of theprophecies, with the aid of this volume! Date Due.
