PRESS COMMENTS.

The Outlook, New York.

"The effect of these changes back to the original forms under which the
sacred writings first appeared will be, for the vast majority of
readers, a surprise and delight; they will feel as if they had come upon
new spiritual and intellectual treasures, and they will appreciate for
the first time how much the Bible has suffered from the hands of those
who have treated it without reference to its literary quality. In view
of the significance and possible results of Professor Moulton's
undertaking, it is not too much to pronounce it one of the most
important spiritual and literary events of the times. It is part of the
renaissance of Biblical study; but it may mean, and in our judgment it
does mean, the renewal of a fresh and deep impression of the beauty and
power of the supreme spiritual writing of the world."

Presbyterian and Reformed Review.

"Unquestionably here is a task worth carrying out: and it is to be said
at once that Dr. Moulton has carried it out with great skill and
helpfulness. Both the introduction and the notes are distinct
contributions to the better understanding and higher appreciation of the
literary character, features and beauties of the Biblical books
treated."
