A very pleasing addition to the " Temple Classics" (J.

M. Dent and Co.) is Verba Christ : the Sayings of Jesus Christ (1s. 6d. net). The " Sayings" have been arranged by the Dean of Ely, who explains that he has followed for the most part the order of Tischendorff's " Synopsis Evangelica " and used the " W.-H." text. Each saying has a Latin heading, and the English (Authorised Version) is on the opposite page. Occasionally the Revised Version is given. The extracts from the Gospels are followed by the sayings preserved elsewhere (as in Acts xx. 35), and thei Logia found at Oxyrrhynchus. There are also a table of contents•and a harmony.
