ZECHARIAH
876. BLAYNEY (BENJAMIN, D.D.) Zechariah. A New Translation, with
Notes. 4to. Oxf, 1797.
3/6.
This learned author writes after the manner of Lowth, but has neither Lowth's taste nor poetic vein. His notes will not
suggest sermons, but will be philologically useful if cautiously read.
877. HENGSTENBERG (E. W.) In his "Christology" (for
which See No. 67) Hengstenberg has given a thorough
and elaborate exposition of the greater part of Zechariah and Malachi. He
is too grammatical and dry to be generally interesting.
See links under No. 67
878. KIMCHI (DAVID. A
celebrated Spanish Rabbi. Died about 1240). Commentary on
Zechariah. Translated from the Hebrew by Rev. A. M'Caul, A.M. 8vo. Lord., 1837. 1/6.
This enables the English reader to see how the Jews themselves understood
the Prophets, and this is worth knowing.

880. PARK (I. R., M.D.) An
Amicable Controversy with a Jewish Rabbi on the Messiah's coming; with an
entirely new Exposition of Zechariah. 8vo. Lond., 1832. 2/-
The words "entirely new exposition" put us on our guard, and did
not entice us to read. The caution was needful. This author explains the
prophecy spiritually, and asserts that "the spiritual is the most
literal interpretation." We more than doubt it.

881. PEMBLE (WILLIAM, M.A. Puritan.
1591—1623). A Short and Sweet Exposition upon the First Nine Chapters
of Zechariah. In his Works.
Folio. Oxf, 1659, and Lond., 1635. 3/6 to 5/-
Richard Capel says:
"Amongst the hardest bookes of Scripture the Prophets may have place,
and amongst the Prophets, Zechary
is a deepe, wherein an elephant may swimme, and therefore I cannot but
commend the wisdom of that man of God (the author of this booke), who
bestowed his learning and his paines to open the mysteries of this
Prophecie. Death ended his dayes ere he could quite finish his worke, and
great weakness hindered an intended supplement." Pemble was a learned Calvinistic
divine, and his writings are highly esteemed, but not very captivating.
882. STONARD (JOHN,
D.D. 1769—1849). Commentary on Zechariah, with a Corrected
Translation, and Critical Notes. 8vo. Lond.,
1824. 4/-
An earnest attempt to expound this prophecy; we do not think the author has
succeeded, but he has written some good things.

883. WARDLAW (RALPH, D.D.)
Lectures on Zechariah. [Posthumous Works, Vol. III.] Cr. 8vo. 3/6. Edinb., A. Fullerton & Co.
1862. S. 2/6.
Written in the Doctor's old age; but
we prefer it, in some respects, to other volumes of his lectures. We always
consult it.
