This work was undertaken with the design of providing the public with a more complete view of the existing state of Biblical literature, both at home and abroad. It was felt that former works of the kind were built too exclusively upon the �������old learning������� of Calmet and others; and that some recent attempts to give a more modern character to such undertakings had been made entirely from home materials. The work owes its origin to the Editor's conviction of the existence of a great body of untouched materials, which lay invitingly ready for the use of those who might know how to avail themselves of such resources.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
