ligent, and characterised by a sobriety of judgment, a candour, and a sweet reasonableness which are worthy of all praise, is only what might be expected from a writer of Dr. Dods' well-known abilities and culture."--_Scotsman._ "The most varied of Paul's Epistles demands in its expositor a combination of qualities which is very rarely met with. He who would read it aright from beginning to end must be theologian, casuist, and historian all in one; he must be equally at home in the ancient and the modern Church, in ancient and in modern life. There is probably no man living in whom these characters are more at one than Dr. Dods; and though the student of exegesis may sometimes look in this book for what he will not find, the practical expositor will recognise in it a model of what his work should be."--_British Weekly._ THE GOSPEL OF ST. JOHN. IN TWO VOLUMES. _Crown 8vo, cloth, price 7s. 6d. each._ "An excellent contribution to the series (_Expositor's Bible_). Dr. Dods appears to us always to write with clearness and with vigour. He has the gift of lucidity of expression, and by means of apt illustrations he avoids the cardinal sin of dryness, so that the interest, even of the general reader, will not flag as he smoothly glides through these chapters."--_Guardian._ ERASMUS AND OTHER ESSAYS. _Second Edition. Crown 8vo, cloth, price 5s._ "Professor Marcus Dods is a theologian, and much more. The essays in this volume show him, not for the first time, as a man of much reading, of broad and genial sympathies, refined but liberal judgment, possessed of no little literary culture, and keenly appreciative of literary and mental power in other men even when they do not happen to belong to his own school. They have all more or less permanent value. They are good literature, and make a book worth having and reading."--_Scotsman._ AN INTRODUCTION TO THE NEW TESTAMENT. _Fourth Edition. Fcap. 8vo, price 2s. 6d._ "The compiler has placed in the hands of ordinary readers the results of the latest scholarship respecting the authorship, genuineness, date and place of writing, and circumstances attending the production of all the books of the New Testament. The work is very well done indeed."--_English Churchman._ "When we compare it with even the best of the extant volumes
