HOSEA
1. BURROUGHES (JEREMIAH. Puritan. 1599—1646).
Exposition of the Prophesie of Hosea. 4 vols. 4to. Lond., 1643—1651.
[The original work does not include Chapter XIV., upon which there is an
Exposition by Sibbes, and
another by Bp. Reynolds.
The reprint, by James Sherman,
contains the Exposition completed by Hall
and Reynolds. Nichol's
Series of Commentaries. 1 vol., imp. 8co. 10/6. Nisbet, 1863.
Masterly. A vast treasure-house of
experimental exposition. With the exception of Adams,
we prefer it to any other of the expositions reprinted under the editorship
of Mr. Sherman.

2. HORSLEY (SAMUEL.,
Bishop of St. Asaph).
Hosea. Translated from the Hebrew; with Notes. 4to. Lond., 1804. S. 3/- And in Vol. 2
of Biblical Criticism.
Horsley occasionally
succeeds in elucidating obscurities, but frequently his treatment of the
text reminds one of the old army surgeons who cut and hacked their patients
without mercy. This translation is still valued, but is to be followed with
discretion.

3. DOWNAME (JOHN, B.D. Died 1644). Lectures upon the Four
First Chapters of Hosea. 4to. Lond.,
1608. 3/6.
An exposition of the richest kind.
Get it by all means, if you can.
4. DRAKE (WILLIAM,
M.A.) Notes, critical and explanatory, on the Prophecies of Jonah and
Hosea. 8vo. Camb.,
Macmillan & Co. 1853.
For Hebraists only.
5. NEALE (JAMES,
M.A.) Hosea. Translation, Commentary, and Notes. Royal 8vo. Lond., 1850. S. 1/6 to 2/6.
We do not think many ministers will value it for homiletical purposes.
6. POCOCK (EDWARD,
D.D. 1604—1691). Commentary on Hosea. In Vol. 2 of his Works; 2 vols. Folio. Lond., 1740. 12/6.
Orme says Pocock was “one of the finest
Oriental scholars, and certainly the first Arabic scholar of his
age.” His book is a treasury filled with the products of laborious
research.
7. WOLFENDALE (J.)
Homiletical Commentary on Hosea. [In progress: being Part 5 of the
Preacher’s Commentary.] 1/- Lond.,
R. D. Dickinson. [1875.]
On an excellent plan, and moderately well executed. With Burroughes and others to quarry
from, and so good a method to work by, Mr.
Wolfendale ought to have produced a better book; but even as it
is he deserves a measure of commendation.
8. SMITH (SAMUEL). An
Exposition upon the Sixth Chapter of the Prophesie of Hosea. 4to. Lond., 1616. 5/’
In Smith’s usual quiet, rich,
expository manner.
9. MARGOLIOUTH
(MOSES, B.A.) Genuine Repentance, and its Effects. Exposition of Hosea XIV.
8vo. Lond., 1854.. 3/-
Respectable discourses.
10. REYNOLDS (EDWARD, D.D., Bp. Of Norwich.
1599—1676). An
Explication of the Fourteenth Chapter of Hosea, in Seven Sermons. 4to.
1649. 2/-
Reprinted by the Religious Tract Society. 18mo. 1/6. See also under Burroughes, No. 822.
Reynolds was one of the greatest
theological writers in an age of great divines. He worthily takes place
with Burroughes.

11. SIBBES (RICHARD, D.D.)
The Returning Backslider, or a Commentary upon Hosea XIV. 4to. 1639,
&c. 2/-Also in Vol II. Of his Works,
Nichol’s edition.
Manton says of Sibbes, that he had a
peculiar gift in unfolding the great mysteries of the Gospel in a sweet and
mellifluous manner, and therefore he was by his hearers usually termed the Sweet
Dropper, “sweet and heavenly
distillations usually dropping from him with such a native elegance as is
not easily to be imitated.” This commentary on Hosea is a fair specimen
of his style.
