Had space allowed we should gladly have given the complete title of each of the preceding works; but this would have been a labour of great difficulty, and would have occupied far more sheets than we can afford to give. Though the list is not a perfect one, it is, we believe, the fullest that has as yet been given. Those who study the prophetic word will not read it as a mere bookseller's catalogue, but as a record of the studies of the Church in past ages, and a proof of how uniformly and how steadfastly the eyes of the saints have been turned to the hope held out to us by God, and a declaration of the exceeding value and importance attached by Bible students to that wondrous Book, which sums up all Scripture, and contains in it the destinies of the world and the glories of the Church-with the joys and sorrows, the darkness and the light, the persecution and the triumph, that were to form the history of time from the departure of the Lord to His reappearance and reign. -We hope to continue the catalogue in our next.

It gives but small countenance to the semi-Socinian view, interpreted in any way; for even admitting that the words affirm that He bore our sins on the tree, that does not deny that He bore them to the tree as well. "He carried up our sins and placed them on the cross," implies that He was bearing them before He came to the cross; for, as Haldane well reasons, "Christ was made under the law; but it was a broken law, and, consequently, He was MADE under its curse. This is not only implied when it is said He was made of a woman who was a transgressor, but it is expressly asserted that He was made a curse for us." ("Expos. of Romans," vol. i. 283).
