LIFE BEYOND THE GRAVE. By the Rev. W. A. H.
Legg. (Nisbet. 2s. 6d. net.)
The late Mr. Legg, who was minister of the Congregational Church at Redhill, expounded the Christian view of the after-life in these sermons, which have been prepared for the press by the Rev. Edward Shillito. Mr. Legg's handling of the Greek texts is here and there open to question. Modem scholarship does not, for instance, accept the distinction between aldwtos and (taw as equivalent in the New Testament to " eternal " and " everlasting " respectively ; both words appear to have the same connotation of endless- ness—especially for punishment. But, save in these details,
i the exposition is to be commended for its clarity and sim- plicity. The author justly distinguishes between the eccen- tricities and the fundamental truths that are confused in Spiritualism.
