THE PROPHETS
710. KITTO (JOHN, D.D.)
"Isaiah and the Prophets." In Daily Bible Illustrations.” (See No. 41).
Should be consulted wherever the
readings touch upon a passage.
711. LOWTH (BISHOP) and others. A Literal Translation of the Prophets
from Isaiah to Malachi, with Notes by Lowth, Blayney, Newcome, &c. 5
vols. 8vo. Lond., 1836.
10/- to 15/.
Concerning each of the five volumes we refer the reader to our notices
under the separate books.
712. LOWTH (WILLIAM, B.D., 1661—1732, Father of Bp. Lowth). Commentary on
the Prophets. 4 vols. 4to. Lond.,
1714.
This is Lowth's part of Patrick (No. 50). He was more spiritual than
those with whom he became associated, which is not saying much.
713. NOYES (GEORGE R., D.D.). A New Translation of the Hebrew
Prophets. 3 vols., 12mo. New York, 1849.
We are bound to commend this author's learning, taste, and candour, even
though we differ widely from him. The reader must not look for savour or
spiritual quickening, but use the work as a literary help only.
714.
WILLIAMS (ROWLAND, D.D.) The Hebrew Prophets during
the Assyrian and Babylonian Empires. Translated afresh from the Original,
with Illustrations. 2 vols., 8vo. 22/6. Lond.,
Williams & Norgate. 1866—71.
The author does not admit that there are references to the Messiah in the
Prophets. Whatever he may have written, this fatal error deprives it of
value. A man writing in that fashion should have been a rabbi in the
synagogue, and not a minister among professed Christians.
