I. & II. THESSALONIANS.

1286 EDMUNDS (J., M.A.) Commentary on I and 2 Thessalonians. Cr.

8vo.

Land., Bell & Daldy. 1858. S. 2/- For school Teachers. The author’s notion of a Commentary, which he fully carries out, is contained in his preface. “My idea of the Middle-class Commentary is, that it should be in strict accordance with the doctrine and ritual of the Church, should illustrate her ritual, and should recommend her to the esteem and affection of her children, by proving her adherence to the Word of God.”

JEWEL (JOHN, Bp. of Salisbury. 1522 — 1571). Expositions upon I. & II. Thessalonians. Sin. 8vo. Black Letter. Land., 1583. Reprinted 1811 and 1841. 1/6. Also in his Works.

Hooker calls Jewel “the jewel of bishops.” This work is in the usual style of the first Reformers, but rather more lively than most of them. Many of the topics touched upon were peculiar to the times in which the exposition was written. It will serve as a good specimen of the preaching of the Fathers of the English Church.

1288 LANGE (J.P.) Commentary on Thessalonians, by Drs.

Auberlen and Riggenbach. Translated by Dr. Lillie Timothy, Titus and Philemon, by Prof. Von Oosterzee.

Hebrews, by Dr. C. B. Moll. Edited by Dr. Schaff.

Imp. 8vo. 2I/. Edinb., T. & T. Clark. I869.

“Lillie’s Thessalonians will be found to be one of the best executed portions of the American edition of Lange. The trans-lotion is remarkably accurate and elegant, and the additions from his own researches, and the best English Commentaries, are care. fully selected and valuable.” — Dr.

P. Schaff 1289 LILLIE (JOHN, D.D., Kingston, New York. 1812 — 1867).

Lectures on Thessalonians. Large 8vo. 9/. Edinb., W. Oliphant & Co. 1863.

Remarks on the preceding will apply here.

ROLLOCK (ROBERT). Lectures on the Epistles to the Thessalonians, preached by R.R. 4to. Edinb., 1606. For remarks, see No. 1246.

SCLATER (WILLIAM, D.D.) Exposition upon 1 and a Thessalonians. 4to. Land., 1627. 3/6 to 7/-

Sclater is antique; but, in the usual Puritanic manner, he gives very instructive disquisitions upon a vast variety of’ topics suggested b¥ the text.

PATTERSON (ALEXANDER SIMPSON, D.D., Glasgow).

Commentaries on x Thessalonians, James, and 1 John. 12mo. Edin5., 1857. 2/6 to 4/6.

Notes of discourses, with much in them. Hints may be gleaned here in abundance by students who open their eyes.

1293 PHILLIPS (J.) The Greek of Thessalonians explained. 4to. Lond., 1751. Short, but not particularly sweet. Very scarce.

1294 BRADSHAW (W., Purr?an. 1571 — I618). A Plaine and Pithy Exposition of 2 Thessalonians; published since his decease by T. Gataker. 4to. I62O. 3/6. As we cannot get a sight of this, perhaps some reader will present us with a copy.

1295 MANTON (THOMAS, D.D.) Eighteen Sermons on 2 Thessalonians II., concerning Antichrist. 8vo. I679. 4,/.

Here Manton smites heavily at Popery. Richard Baxter wrote a commendatory preface to this valuable exposition.

I296 SQUIRE (JOHN, M.A.) A Plaine Exposition on 2 Thessa- Ionians II., x — x3, proving the Pope to be Antichrist. 4to.

Lond., i63o. 5/- to 8/-

Squire works out the point of the Pope’s being Antichrist with very great cogency of reasoning. The exposition of the Epistle is lost in the point aimed at; but that point is of the utmost importance.

PASTORAL EPISTLES;

Or, the Epistles of Timothy, Titus, and Philemon.

1297 CALVIN (JOHN’). C Sermons on the Epistles of S.

Paule to Timothie and Titus, translated out of the French, by L.T. 4to. Land., 1579. 15/.

Quite a different work from Calvin’s Commentaries.

1298 FAIRBAIR1N (PATRICK, D.D.) The Pastoral Epistles, Greek Text, Translation, Introductions, Expository N ores, etc. Cr. 8vo. 7/6. Edinb., T. & T. Clark. I874. What with a good translation, full defense of the Apostolic authorship of the Epistles, fruitful comments, and profitable dissertations, this volume is about as complete a guide to the smaller epistles as one could desire.
