The Second Prayer - Book of Edward VL, 1352 (Griffith, Ferran, and

Co.), is a valuable addition to the " Westminster Library." —We have also received Studia Biblica et Ecclesiastica, Vols. II. and III. (the Clarendon Press), valuable contributions to criticism which show that, at present at least, learning has a home in the English Church. Help, too, is called in from without, as when Mr. Neubauer discusses the Hebrew titles of the Psalms, or describes Old Testament manuscripts. With this may be men- tioned A Translation of the Treatise Chagigah from the Babylonian Talmud. By the Rev. A W. Streane, M.A. (Cambridge University Press ) —Readers of Professor Scharer's History of the Jewish People in the Time of Christ will be glad to possess his very full Index to that valuable work (T. and T. Clark).
