“THE HUMANISM OF THE BIBLE” SERIES.
Edited by
Professor JOHN E. MCFADYEN, B.A. (Oxon), D.D.
(United Free Church College, Glasgow),
and
D. RUSSELL SCOTT, M.A.
(Late Pusey and Ellerton Hebrew Scholar in the University of Oxford.)
Large Crown 8vo, Cloth Gilt.
Price =3s. 6d.= net per Volume.
The aim of the Series is to set forth the human experience that underlies, and is reflected in, the Bible. The doctrinal and theological treatment of the Bible has undoubtedly tended to obscure its transcendent human interest. This Series is an attempt to recover some of those ancient experiences and personalities which come to expression in the Bible, and to show how fascinating and relevant they are to the life of to-day. It seeks in a broad way to interpret the spirit of the Biblical books with which it deals, and to indicate their permanent human interest and worth.
“If the series may be judged by its first volume it promises to fulfil admirably its purpose of making the Bible a more human book.”--_Glasgow Herald._
“The series promises to be a valuable contribution to theological thought.”--_Dundee Courier._

PESSIMISM AND LOVE.
In Ecclesiastes and The Song of Songs.
By
DAVID RUSSELL SCOTT, M.A.
(Late Pusey and Ellerton Scholar in the University of Oxford).
_Large Crown 8vo, Cloth Boards, Gilt._ =3s. 6d.= _net._
“No more suggestive and illuminative scriptural studies have been published recently.”--_Irish Presbyterian._
“There can be no question of the freshness of his exposition.”--_Glasgow Herald._
“Mr. Scott is an accomplished Hebrew scholar ... his pages contain much that is illuminative of the ancient text, and much that touches the quick of modern needs.”--_Methodist Recorder._
“The volume ... very successfully attains the aim of the series which it so admirably opens.”--Professor G. Buchanan Gray, D.D., D.Litt., in the Mansfield College Oxford Magazine.
“Mr. Scott’s command of language is quite remarkable, and clear diction is combined with penetrative insight and sound judgment.”--_Aberdeen Daily Journal._
“Extremely interesting and able expositions ... attractive and valuable. Mr. Scott is heartily to be congratulated on the striking success of his opportune work, both as a translator and expositor.”--_Dundee Advertiser._
“An able and exhaustive analysis and explanation of Ecclesiastes. The book teems with valuable instructions for men of to-day.”--_Liverpool Courier._
“The studies and expositions will be found suggestive, practical, and thoroughly up to date in their application to the problems of present-day life.”--_Northern Whig._
“A very useful piece of work. It is expository and frankly homiletic. Mr. Scott gives us a fresh translation of both the books.... This kind undoubtedly has its place, and it could hardly be done better than Mr. Russell Scott does it.”--_Methodist Times._
“Thoughtful and stimulating.... These scholarly studies will appeal not only to ministers of religion and theological students, but to the average reader with a taste for philosophic moralising.”--_Nottingham Daily Express._
THE INDIVIDUALITY OF S. PAUL.
By
R. H. STRACHAN, M.A.
_Large Crown 8vo, Cloth Boards, Gilt._ =3s. 6d.= _net._
“A close and careful investigation of the teaching of the Apostle. Mr. Strachan’s style is crisp and pointed.”--_The Times._
“The book represents much honest and independent thinking, and is a very sincere and helpful contribution to a working knowledge of St. Paul’s life and theology.”--_The Scotsman._
“Of Mr. Strachan’s study of the Apostle we can speak in terms of warm commendation. It is a work of clear discernment and of sound judgment ... deserves to be welcomed as a most helpful study of the individuality of St. Paul and as a valuable exposition of the truths which it was his mission to proclaim.”--_Westminster Gazette._
“Mr. Strachan writes with strength, decision, lucidity and makes Paul stand before us as a Christian thinker and pastor.”--_Methodist Times._
“The arrangement of the matter is admirable, and as a result the very large amount of information is compressed into a very small space. Among the many books on this great theme, this of Mr. Strachan’s alike for its scholarship, its humanity, and its style deserves an honoured place.”--_Liverpool Post._
“The theological student will find Mr. Strachan’s work fresh, stimulating and reverent. The volume is characterised by great accuracy.”--_Aberdeen Free Press._
“An important and original contribution to the understanding of the New Testament.”--_Sheffield Daily Telegraph._
“Unquestionably a very striking and valuable contribution to the study of Paul as a man and a theologian.”--_Christian World,_.
“Every page bears evidence of painstaking research. The volume will prove of signal value to the student.”--_Aberdeen Daily Journal._
RELIGION IN SONG.
STUDIES IN THE PSALTER.
By
Professor W. G. JORDAN, D.D.
(Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada.)
_Large Crown 8vo, Cloth Gilt._ =3s. 6d.= _net._
This is a most fascinating volume. Resting on a basis of accurate scholarship which is never obtruded, Prof. Jordan interprets the spirit of the Psalter with singular felicity. In his skilful hands this ancient Hymn Book becomes amazingly modern. His volume is eminently wise and helpful. To the preacher it is a veritable gold mine, while apart altogether from its religious power and insight it is a literary treat.

=The Marprelate Tracts.= By WILLIAM PIERCE, Author of “An Historical Introduction to the Marprelate Tracts.” Demy 8vo, cloth, 12s. 6d. net.
The “Tracts” reprinted in this volume are among the most famous in history. They were read eagerly everywhere in England, from the Court to the country farmhouse, when they appeared at the end of the sixteenth century. They are racy in style, and the unknown author, “Martin Marprelate,” brings great resources of wit, humour and argument to bear in his tremendous onslaught upon the Bishops. Mr. Pierce gives a very scholarly edition of the tracts, enriched by many valuable and illuminating notes.
Dr. JAMES MOFFATT, in _The British Weekly_, says:--“Will rank as a standard edition. It is not possible to convey any idea of the historical scholarship and research which have gone to the making of this book, but Mr. Pierce will have his reward in the consciousness of serving the cause of religious liberty; and in the gratification of those who have to study the religious situation of England during the sixteenth century.... Their historical importance is considerable.”
“One of the most valuable contributions to our history ever made.”--Principal W. B. SELBIE.

THE HUMANISM OF THE BIBLE SERIES
Edited by PROFESSOR JOHN E. MCFADYEN, B.A. (Oxon), D.D. (United Free Church College, Glasgow), and D. RUSSELL SCOTT, M.A., (Late Pusey and Ellerton Hebrew Scholar in the University of Oxford). Large Crown 8vo. Cloth Gilt. Price 3s. 6d. net per Volume. The aim of the Series is to set forth the human experience that underlies, and is reflected in, the Bible. The doctrinal and theological treatment of the Bible has undoubtedly tended to obscure its transcendent human interest. This Series is an attempt to recover some of those ancient experiences and personalities which come to expression in the Bible, and to show how fascinating and relevant they are to the life of to-day. It seeks in a broad way to interpret the spirit of the Biblical books with which it deals, and to indicate their permanent human interest and worth.
“If the series may be judged by its first volume it promises to fulfil admirably its purpose of making the Bible a more human book.”--_Glasgow Herald._
=Pessimism and Love in Ecclesiastes and the Song of Songs=, with translations from the same. By DAVID RUSSELL SCOTT, M.A.
“An able and exhaustive analysis and explanation of Ecclesiastes. The book teems with valuable instructions for men of to-day.”--_Liverpool Courier._
=The Individuality of S. Paul.= By R. H. STRACHAN, M.A.
“Every page bears evidence of painstaking research. The volume will prove of signal value to the student.”--_Aberdeen Daily Journal._
=*Religion in Song: Studies in the Psalter.= By Prof. W. G. JORDAN, B.A., D.D.
This is a most fascinating volume, eminently wise and helpful. To the preacher it is a veritable gold mine, while apart altogether from its religious power and insight it is a literary treat.
