Dr. Holme, in HOM. MONTHLY says: "We especially congratulate ourselves that these sermons are printed essentially as they were delivered; they have not been retouched nor polished: they are here just as they fell on the ears of the masses who listened to them at their delivery, in their native roughness and brokenness. Dr. Parker always has a clear apprehension of the point ne would make, and he makes' directly at it with the boldness and dash of a soldier when storming a fort. We think we would select Dr. Parker to

lead a storming party rather than Mr. Spurgeon; he has more enthusiasm, and imparts more to his followers at a given charge than the other great London preacher. Seeming to forget all rules, Dr. Parker rushes forward with resistless energy, and thrusts the bayonet point of truth right into the heart of his antagonist."

The London Christian World Pulpit says: "We have no hesitation in describing these 'expositions," for such they really are, as most luminous in their interpretation of the Divine sayings. They glow

The style throughout is strikingly picturesque and frequently dramatic, while many of the emendations are peculiarly felicit

ous.

The Rev. W. G. Blaikie, D.D., F.R.S.E., of the North British Review, writes: "I have often felt that

a translation of the Scriptures would be of invaluable use to ordinary readers, not as superseding our timehonored version, but as supplementary to it), that would be an exact counterpart of the Hebrew-rendering the Hebrew words and phrases uniformly, or as nearly so as possible, by the same English words and phrases, giving the tenses and moo is exactly as they are in the original; in a word causing the Scriptures to present to the English reader not only the sime general meaning, but even the same minute shades of thought and feeling which they present to those familiar with the original tongues. Mr. Young's translation seems to be admirably adapted to meet this want, and I hope to see it become a Standard Work."
