A.M., et PETRO GOLDSMITH MEDD, A.M., Presbyteris, Collegii
Universitatis in Acad. Oxon. Sociis, Latine redditus. New
Edition, with all the Rubrics in red. Small 8vo. 6s.
=THE PSALMS.= Translated from the Hebrew. With Notes, chiefly
Exegetical. By WILLIAM KAY, D.D., Rector of Great Leighs; late
Principal of Bishop’s College, Calcutta. 8vo. 12s. 6d.
“_Like a sound Churchman, he reverences Scripture, upholding
its authority against sceptics; and he does not denounce such as
differ from him in opinion with a dogmatism unhappily too common
at the present day. Hence, readers will be disposed to consider his
conclusions worthy of attention; or perhaps to adopt them without
inquiry. It is superfluous to say that the translation is better and
more accurate on the whole than our received one, or that it often
reproduces the sense of the original happily._”――ATHENÆUM.
“_Dr. Kay has profound reverence for Divine truth, and exhibits
considerable reading, with the power to make use of it._”――BRITISH
QUARTERLY REVIEW.
“_The execution of the work is careful and scholarly._”――UNION REVIEW.
“_To mention the name of Dr. Kay is enough to secure respectful
attention to his new translation of the Psalms. It is enriched with
exegetical notes containing a wealth of sound learning, closely
occasionally, perhaps too closely condensed. Good care is taken
of the student not learned in Hebrew; we hope the Doctor’s example
will prevent any abuse of this consideration, and stimulate those
who profit by it to follow him into the very text of the ancient
Revelation._”――JOHN BULL.

=A COMPANION TO THE OLD TESTAMENT.= Being a Plain Commentary on
Scripture History, down to the Birth of our Lord. Small 8vo.
3s. 6d.
“_A most admirable Companion to the Old Testament, being far the most
concise yet complete commentary on Old Testament history with which
we have met. Here are combined orthodoxy and learning, an intelligent
and at the same time interesting summary of the leading facts of the
sacred story. It should be a text-book in every school, and its value
is immensely enhanced by the copious and complete index._”――JOHN BULL.
