Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Book of Psalms, Vol. 2 Messrs. Charles Scribner's Sons of New York, and Messrs T. T. Clark of Edinburgh, propose to publish such a series of Commentaries on the Old and New Testaments, under the editorship of Prof. C. A. Briggs, D.D., in America, and of Prof. S. R. Driver, D.D for the Old Testament, and the Rev. Alfred plummer, DD, for the New Testament, in Great Britain. The Commentaries will be international and inter-confessional, and will be free from polemical and ecclesiastical bias. They will be based upon a thorough critical study of the original texts of the Bible, and upon critical methods of interpretation. They are designed chiefly for students and clergymen, and will be written in a compact style. Each book will be preceded by an Introduction, stating the results of criticism upon it, and discuss ing impartially the questions still remaining open. The details of criticism will appear in their proper place in the body of the Commentary. Each section of the d104 will be introduced with a paraphrase, or summary of contents. Technical details of textual and philological criticism will, as a rule, be kept distinct from matter of a more general character; and in the Old Testament the exegetical notes will be arranged, as far as possible, so as to be serviceable to students not acquainted with Hebrew. The History of Interpretation of the Books will be dealt with, when necessary, in the Introductions, with critical notices of the most important literature ofthe subject. Historical and Archaeological questions, as well as questions of Biblical Theology, are included in the plan of the Commentaries, but not Practical or Homiletical Exegesis. The Volumes will con stitute a uniform series. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
