“Its abundance of literary judgment is presented rather in dispersion than compactness, for the purpose of elucidating the biographical theses; and the complete proportion and harmony preserved throughout may well be considered the crowning achievement of the work.”

“Of M. Huchon’s volume (not at all badly translated by Mr. Clarke) we may say, in one word, that it is the work of an expert. If only as a piece of social history the work is full of value. Our main praise, however, we reserve for the judgment and taste with which M. Huchon has made his quotations.”

* Huck, A. Synopsis of the first three Gospels arranged for English readers; ed. by Ross L. Finney. *$1. Meth. bk.
An English version of Huck’s “Synopse,” a Greek harmony used widely in Germany as an aid to Holtzmann’s “Hand-commentar.” “The present volume exhibits Mark as the basal work of the evangelic records, the use of Mark by both Matthew and Luke, the collection of Logia, and the material peculiar to each evangelist. The use of this harmony does not blind the student to the special characteristics of the several evangelists and their relations of mutual dependence, as is often the case with the older manuals.”
