HEADLAND and SWETE.—St. Paul’s Epistles to the Thessalonians. With an Introduction, Notes, Practical Thoughts, and Prayers, for Private and Family Use. By Edward Headland, M. A., Rector of Broadway, Dorset, late Fellow of Caius College, Cambridge; and Henry Barclay Swete, M.A., Fellow of Caius College, and Curate of Blagdon, Somerset. Crown 8vo. cloth, 4s.
“This work is admirably adapted to answer the purpose for which it has been prepared and published; viz. that of supplying the wants of intelligent and inquiring readers of the Holy Scriptures with the means of becoming acquainted with the best results of modern Biblical research, who have not the learning requisite for seeking them in the critical and elaborate works which have been put forth of late.”—Clerical Journal.
“This will be found a valuable little book, illustrating the Epistles in question rather with a devotional than a critical purpose.”—John Bull.
“We can bear testimony to the scriptural orthodoxy, evangelical spirit, accurate scholarship, and lucid style which characterise it throughout. The notes are brief, but to the point, and omit no topic of interest or importance, and are interspersed with apposite sayings from commentators, ancient and modern, which often contain a world of truth. The ‘Practical Thoughts’ bring the truth of each chapter to bear on the heart and the conscience in a plain and instructive way, which renders the book very useful for reading at family worship; and a carefully-written Appendix presents the reader with a digest and criticism of the various interpretations which have been put forth on the Man of sin of the second chapter.”—Record.
