Magic Divination and Demonology among the Hebrews and their Neighbours.

(James Clarke and Co.) —This learned little study of a difficult and obscure sub- ject will prove very interesting to Biblical students, though for the general reader it is somewhat dry. It is pleasant to find this piece of pure scholarship coming from a Baptist College, as it is proof that the high reputation of oar Nonconformist divines in the matter of Old Testament learning is being well maintained.
