The first four Volumes containing the Old
Testament complete, may be seen with the
subscriber, also the conditions of publication.
To those who are already acquainted, with
this very excellent and useful commentary on
the Holy Scriptures, any recommendation
would be superfluous, and to those who are
not, any praise that could be bestowed on it
would fall short of its merit. It is expected
that the last volume will be out in October, af
ter which the price will be raised to 3 Dollars
per set.
