WM. M. MORRISON,
who is Agent for the same.
This work contains the Text according to
the authorised version; Scott’s Marginal Re
ferences; Matthew Henry’s Commentary, con
densed, but containing every useful thought; the
Practical Observations of Rev. Thomas Scott,
D. D.; with extensive Explanatory, Critical,
and Philological Notes, selected from Scott,
Doddridge, Gill, Adam Clark, Patrick, Pool,
Lowth, Burder, Harmer, Calmut, Rosenmuel
ler, Bloomfield, and many other writers on the
Scriptures: the whole designed to be a digest
and combination of the advantages of the best
Bible commentaries, and embracing nearly all
that is valuable in Henry, Scott and Doddridge,
conveniently arranged for family and private
reading, and at the same time particularly
adapted to the wants of Sabbath School Teach
ers and Bible classes; with numerous useful Ta
bles, and a neatly engraved Family Record.—
The whole embellished with five portraits, and
other elegant engravings from steel plates, se
veral maps, and many wood cuts, illustrative of
Scripture manners, customs, antiquities, &c.
Edited by Rev. W’m. Jenks, D. D.. Pastor of
Green-street Church, Boston; re-edited and
adapted to the views of the Baptist Denomina
tion of Christians by Rev. Joseph A. Warne,
Pastor of the Baptist Church in Brooklyn, Mass.
Mr. Morrisox
D**ar Sir—The Comprehensive Bible now in
a process of publication, and for which you are
the Agent in Alexandria, I have perused—so far
as the time allotted me would permit—with some ;
care, and with no small amount of interest.—
With Henry, and Scott, and Clarke, and Cal
met, &c. from whose valuable labors the work
has been compiled, I have long been (amiliar: j
and as it has concentrated and suitably arrang- J
ed, all the most important and profitable matter
to be found in each of these, and as the Theo
logical views which it exhibits, are strictly Evan
gelical, I cannot help regarding it as one of the
most useful Commentaries, for families, Bible
Classes, and Sunday School Teachers, that has
ever been published:—and as such I have no
hesitation in cordially recommending it. The
only thing strange about it is, how so much in
teresting and important matter has been crowd
ed into such a small space, and at such a mode
rate price. ELIAS HARRISON,
Pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, Alex
andria. December 1st, 1834.
