THE OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS.
Ertracts from Opinions (continued). "I have examined with some care a considerable portion of the 'Helps to the Study of the Bible,' which are placed at the end of the OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS, and have been much struck with the vast amount of really useful information which has there been brought together in a small compass, as well as the accuracy with which it has been compiled. The botanical and geological notices, the account of the animals of Scripture, &c., seem to be excellent, and the maps are admirable. Altogether, the book cannot fail to be of service, not only to teachers, but to all who cannot afford a large library, or who have not time for much independent study.”—THE DEAN OF PETERBOROUGH.
"I have been for some time well aware of the value of the OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHHRS, and have been in the habit of recommending it, not only to Sunday School Teachers, but to more advanced students, on the ground of its containing & large mass of accurate and well-digested information, useful and in many cases indispensable to the thoughtful reader of Holy Scripture; in fact, along with the Bible, a copious Index, and a Concordance complete enough for all ordinary purposes, this one volume includes a series of short but comprehensive chapters equivalent to a small library of Biblical works."-THE BISHOP OF LIMERICE.
“Having examined the OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS carefully, I am greatly pleased with it. The 'Helps to the Study of the Bible' at the end contain a great amount of most valuable information, well calculated not only to lead to a good understanding of the text, but to stimulate the student to further efforts. It differs from many publications in this, that the information is 80 admirably arranged, that it is well suited for reference, and is easily available for the student. The edition would be most useful to Sunday School Teachers, a great help to those who desire that the young shall have a real knowledge of the Word of God.”—THE BISHOP OF CORK.
"The OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS may, I think, without exaggeration, be described as a wonderful edition of the Holy Scriptures. The clearness and beauty of the type, and the convenient shape of the volume, leave nothing to be desired. I know nothing of the same compass which can be compared to the Helps to the Study of the Bible' for fulness of information and general accuracy of treatment. It is only real learning which can accomplish such a feat of compression."-THE BISHOP OF DERRY AND RAPHOR.
"I consider the OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS to be simply the most valuable edition of the English Bible ever presented to the public."-THE VEN. ARCHDRACON RBICHEL
"The OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS is in every respect, as regards type, paper, binding, and general information, the most perfect volume I have ever examined."-THE RBV. PREBENDARY WILSON, of the National Society's Depository.
“The essence of fifty expensive volumes, by men of sacred learning, is condensed into the pages of the OXFORD BIBLE FOR TEACHERS."-The Rev. ANDREW THOMSON, D.D., Edinburgh.
“The latest researches are laid under contribution, and the Bible Student is furnished with the pith of them all."-DR. STOUGHTON.
"The whole combine to form a Help of the greatest value."-DR. ANGUS. "I cannot imagine anything more complete or more helpful." -DR. W. MORLAY PUNSHON.
"I congratulate the teacher who possesses it, and knows how to turn its 'Helps' to good account." - DR. KBNNEDY.
