THE OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS.
Ertracts from Opinions (continued). “The OXFORD BIBLE FOR TRACHERS is the most valuable help to the study of the Holy Scriptures, within & moderate compass, which I have ever met with. I shall make constant use of it; and imagine that few who are occupied with, or interested in the close study of the Scriptures, will allow such a companion to be far from their side."-The Rev. BALDWIN BROWN.
"I do not think I shall ever leave home without the OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS, for one can scarcely miss his ordinary books of reference when this Bible is at hand. I know no other edition which contains so much valuable help to the reader."- The Rev. A. H. CHAPTERIS, D.D., Dean of the Chapel Royal.
"The OXFORD BIBLES FOR TEACHERS are as good as ever we can expect to see." - THE Rev. C. H. SPURGEON.
“The modest title of the work scarcely does justice to the range of subjects which it comprehends, and the quality of their treatment. As & manual of Biblical information and an auxiliary of Biblical study, it is unrivalled. It is as exhaustive as it is concise,-no irrelevant matter has been introduced, and nothing essential to Biblical study seems to have been omitted, and in no instance, so far as I can judge, has thoroughness or accuracy been sacrificed to the necessities of condensation."-THE REY. ROBERT N. YOUNG, of Headingley College, Leeds.
“The OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS is really one of the greatest boons which in our day has been offered to the reading public. The information given is so various, and so conplete, as scarcely to leave a single desideratum. To Christians, in their quiet researches at home, or in the course of extensive journeys, or in preparation for the duties of tuition, it is simply invaluable, and constitutes in itself a Biblical Library. The range of topics which it seeks to illustrate is very great, while the care and accuracy manifest in the articles deserves the highest praise. It is no exaggeration to say, that to the mass of Christian people it saves the expense of purchasing and the toil of consulting a library of volumes. At the same time, I know no book more likely to stimulate enquiry, and to give the power of appreciating further research into the history, structures, and meaning of the Sacred Oracles." - DR. GOOLD, of Edinburgh.
“I have only recently possessed one of the OXFORD BIBLES FOR TEACHERS; and after a most patient examination of it, am astonished at the immense amount of accurate and carefully digested matter it contains and that, too, of a kind precisely adapted to the Teacher's needs. Would that such a Bible bad been within my reach when I first began my teaching life; and would that I had possessed one earlier, since I began to write for Teachers. As I look at its upwards of 300 pages of 'Helps to the Study of the Bible, I recall my toilsome pilgrimage through many volumes, at much expenditure of time, for what is here 80 distinctly stated and tabulated. With such a desk companion I might have done so much more, and done it so much better. All I can do now is to entreat all Teachers who need a perfectly reliable Bible for study or class purposes, to procure one of the OXFORD BIBLES FOR TEACHERS. This I do most earnestly. And I would add that as a presentation volume by a class to its Teacher, or by a School to its Superintendent, no gift would be better appreciated or more appropriate than the small quarto size with its wide margin, and magnificent type, and superb flexible binding."The Rev. JAMES COMPBR GRAY, Author of "Class and Desk," " Topics for Teachers," “ Biblical Museum," 80., &c.
“These admirable Bibles must tend to extend the fame even of the Oxford Press." -- THB RIGHT Hon. W. E. GLADSTONE, M.P.
