HOLY LAND

With Six Maps, specially prepared.

Seventh Thousand. 8vo, cloth, 15s.

With New Index and additions, and corrections.

’A very noteworthy contribution to the study of sacred history, based upon the three indispensable conditions of personal acquaintance with the land, a study of the explorations, discoveries, and decipherments ... and the employment of the results of Biblical criticism.’—­Times.

’Professor Smith is well equipped at all points for this work.  He is abreast of the latest findings of Scripture exegesis, and of geographical survey, and of archæological exploration; and he has himself travelled widely over Palestine.  The value of the work is incalculably increased by the series of geographical maps, the first of the kind representing the whole lift and lie of the land by gradations of colour.’—­Scotsman.

THE BOOK OF ISAIAH

VOL.  I.—­CHAPS, I.—­XXXIX.

Crown 8vo, cloth, 7s. 6d.

’This is a very attractive book.  Mr. George Adam Smith has such a mastery of the scholarship of his subject that it would be sheer impertinence for most scholars, even if tolerable Hebraists, to criticise his translations.  All we desire is to let English readers know how very lucid, impressive, and, indeed, how vivid a study of Isaiah is within their reach....  We will give an example of both aspects of this most fascinating book.’—­Spectator.

VOL.  II.—­CHAPS, XL.—­LXVI.

Crown 8vo, cloth, 7s. 6d.

’It is needless to mention the literary merits which in reviews of the first volume of this work were so abundantly recognised.  This is, indeed, one of the few theological works which it is a pure pleasure to read; nor need one in the case of the present volume add the qualifying remark that the homiletical element is somewhat unduly large.  The scholarship, too, is still as accurate as might be expected from Mr. Smith’s excellent training.’—­Academy.

HODDER & STOUGHTON

THE BOOK OF THE TWELVE PROPHETS

%_Crown 8vo, cloth, 7s. 6d_%.

%VOL.I.—­AMOS, HOSEA, AND MICAH%.

%With an Introduction and a Sketch of Prophecy in Early Israel.%

’The work of an interesting writer, an excellent theologian, whose previous book on Isaiah showed the same qualities of fairness, historical imagination, and enthusiasm for a great subject that now appear in the handling of these precious fragments from the lesser prophets of Israel.  Each separate prophecy calls out an appropriate literary and historical commentary written with a true sense for life and reality, and with that effort to get at the psychological and historical background which characterises all that is best in modern critical work.’—­Times.
