ALLEGED DISCREPANCY BETWEEN PAUL
AND JAMES (by Rev. E. Kennedy),
237-258. Different objects, conditions,
and attainments, account for apparent
discrepancies in Scripture, but inspira-
tion secures real harmony through all,
237; the apparent difference between
Paul and James stated, 238; theories of
reconciliation by Hug, Dwight, Knapp,
Frommann, Neander, Moses Stuart,
Barnes, &c., 239-246; examination of
the sense of dikatów (to justify) as used
by Paul and James, 247; the Pauline
sense is to absolve from condemna-
tion,' 247; could not be used in this
Pauline sense by James, 248; another
sense of the word is discoverable in the
Gospels, 'to approve' or 'vindicate,' or
'to declare one's character righteous,'
248; this is the sense in which it is em-
ployed by St. James, 249; difficulties
obviated, 250; the harmony of the two
Apostles further shown by the mean-
ing they respectively attach to ěpya
(works), 251-254; the case of Abra-
ham as cited by the two Apostles, 254;
James's line of argument here, 255;
examples of equal apparent discre-
pancies between different expressions
of Christ and of Paul, 257.
no discord, but exact agreement, be-
tween Paul and James, 258.
Amelius, his view of the coincidence be-
tween St. John's and Plato's doctrine
of the Logos, 118.

CALVIN AS A COMMENTATOR (by Rev.
G. W. Gotch, M.A.), 222-236. Cal-
vin's name too exclusively associated
with systematic theology, 222; revived
attention to his exegetical writings,
223; recognition of his claims by
Horsley, 223; by Conybeare, Pye
Smith, Bloomfield, 224; the order in
which Calvin's expositions of Scripture
appeared, 225; his plan of writing,
226; his object, 227; his qualifications
-his Latinity, 228; his learning, 229;

CREATION, DAYS OF (by William M'Com-

bie). All competent to form an opi-
nion now agree that more than six
natural days are required, 159; what
period the term "day" designates
should be regarded as an open ques-
tion, 160; does not always signify a
natural day even in Scripture, ib.; a
new suggestion, which would afford
to each "day" an ample cosmogonic

æra, 161.

CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF COLOSSIANS
ii. 12 (by Rev. P. Mearns), 349-354.
The connection in which this verse
stands, 349; points presented by this
text-analysis of it, 350; conclusion
from it that the words "buried with

him in baptism" have no reference to
the mode of baptism, 351; the real
meaning shown, 353-359; the doctrine
involved, 354.

CUSTOMS ILLUSTRATIVE OF THE BIBLE
(by Rev. D. G. Wait, D.C.L.), 309–
319. Events were most anciently re-
corded in stone-specimens in Yemen
and elsewhere, 309; veneration paid
to particular stones, unction of stones,
310; earliest habitations caverns which
have become dormitories for the dead,
310; analogies between the interments
at Machpelah and the funeral descrip-
tion in the Shah-nameh, 311; the dis-
grace of privation of sepulture, ib.;
the dead not burned by the Hebrews,
ib.; other funeral customs illustrated,
312; the comparison of life to a weav-
er's thread-the dying blessing, 313;
ideas and expressions of the Gabrs
analogous to the Hebrew, 314; ideas
drawn from the desolation of Hades,
ib.; remarkable customs respecting
death and the dead, 315; feasts for the
dead, 316; ministering genii, 317;
other ideas and customs indicating the
belief in a future state, 318, 319.

DOCTRINE OF THE LOGOS (by Rev. J. F.
Denham), 107-135. Sources of infor-
mation, 107; the New Testament, 108;
the introduction to John's Gospel con-
tains the fullest and most systematic
development, ib.; what this teaches
respecting the Logos, 109; the onto-
logical doctrines of the ancients stated,
110; the doctrine of the personality of
the Logos not peculiar to John, 112;
found in Epist. to the Hebrews, 113;
and perhaps in the introduction to
Luke's Gospel, ib. Information from
the Old Testament, 114; from the
Apocrypha, 115; from Heathen writers,
116; from the ancient Jewish exposi-
tors, 119; the cabalistic doctrine of the

Adam Kadman, or "the first man,"
122; view of the doctrine as exhibited
in the works of Philo Judæus, 123;
the views of early Christian writers,
127; intimations of this doctrine in
the Koran, 130; some traces of it
among existing heathen nations, 131.
Proposed conclusions:-that the doc-
trine is derived from primæval revela-
tion, 132; that it affords an easy and
entire solution of all the exalted things
said of Christ, 133; that the right
course is to be found in the medium
between extreme opinions, 134.

FINE ART AMONG THE JEWS (by Rev.
Dr. Memes); the sojourn in Egypt fa-
vourable to the acquisition of taste for
and skill in the arts, 50; the tangible
results not answerable to the expecta-
tions excited, 51; the works in the
wilderness inevitably suggest their
Egyptian original-how this consists
with the Divine inspiration claimed for
them, 53-55; the original types of the
forms which the Egyptians gave to
their sacred fanes and utensils may be
traced to Chaldea, 55; Moses may
have resorted to this fountain-head, yet
there are arts which the Israelites un-
questionably brought from Egypt, 56-
58; instanced in metallurgy, 58; in
engraving precious stones, 59; in sculp-
tures of wood and stone, ib.; in the
lighter arts, 60; inferences in art from
affair of the golden calf, 60-64; from
the book of Job, 64-68; was modelling
known? 68; was the figure of the

calf solid or laminated? 69; conclu-
sions as to the knowledge of art pos-
sessed at this time by the Jews, 69-73.

GENEALOGICAL TABLES OF JEWS IN THE
EVANGELISTS MATTHEW AND LUKE
(by Dr. K. Wieseler), 197-221. State
of the discussion, 197; the first point,
the descent of Jesus from David, is
clear, 198; what historical credibility is
to be claimed for the two family trees,
200;
in general, 201; in particular,
204; the family-tree of Matthew con-
sidered by itself-it is that of Joseph
as the legal father of Jesus, 205;
proofs of its correctness, ib.; the
three series of fourteen genera-
tions, 206; why so divided, 207; diffi-
culties of this threefold division ad-
justed, 208; the family-tree of Luke,
expounded by itself, 210; comparison
of the two genealogies, 211; remark-
able differences, 212; tabular exposi-
tion of the tree, 213; whether the fa-
mily-tree of both Evangelists is that of
Joseph, 214; whether that of Luke be
the genealogy of Mary, 215; answered
affirmatively, 217; further reasons that
prove this, 217-221; results, 221.

HEBREW IN THE TIME OF JEROME (by
Rev. F. Bosworth), 283-308. Testimo-
nies to Jerome's Hebrew scholarship,
283; value of Jerome's references to the
Hebrew language and importance of
collecting them here, 284; manuscripts
in his time written in the square cha-
racter, ib.; the difference between
medial and final letters known, 285;
characters small, ib.; text without
vowel points, 285-288; the diacritic
points also unknown, 288; dagesh lene
and dagesh forte unknown, 289; the
powers ascribed to the Hebrew letters,
290-292; how Hebrew was then pro-
nounced, 292, 293; its agreement with
the Masorites, 294; its disagreements,
295; the Aramaic element had modified
the old pronunciation of Hebrew, 297;
but the fluctuations of vocal pronun-
ciation had in a great degree subsided,
298; the Jewish divisions of the text
appear to be recognised, 299; there
was some metrical division in the po-
etical books, 300; number and order
of the books of Scripture, 301; state of
Jerome's text, 302; prevalence of Rab-
binic conceits, 303; cognate dialects,
303-306; state of Hebrew learning in
Palestine, 306-308.

special advantages and course of the
author in identifying the natural pro-

former labourers in this department,
263; much still remains to be done-
nature of the difficulties, 265; prin-
ciples which should guide such inves-
tigations, 266; conditions to be sought
in the "Mustard Tree" of Scripture,
267; these not found in the common
mustard-plant, 268; nor in the Phyto-
lacca dodecandra, in which Mr. Frost
seeks them, 269; the Greek word (si-
napis) rendered "mustard," is in He-
brew charal, same as Arabic khardal,
270; this name still applied to a tree
in Palestine, 271; a similar name
(kharjul) in India denotes the Salva-
dora persica, the description of which
corresponds with the Syrian khardal,
and supplies all the conditions re-
quired, 273; this plant described, 274;
found in Egypt and Abyssinia, 275;
difficulty in ascertaining the positive
existence of the S. persica in Palestine,
277; at length found in the description
given and specimen produced by Irby
and Mangles, 278-280; results of this
inquiry, and the perfect agreement of
S. persica with the required conditions
shown, 281, 282.

"INA AND THE FORMULA "INA ПAнРлOн
