Endkuas of Jesus. (Situpkin and Marshall).—A collection of all the

emblems under which the Scripture writers have described Christ, with explanations and expansions by some one who belongs apparently to the "sweet" theological school. The gems are not im- proved by being torn from their ancient setting, and the new one would, were that possible, dim even their lustre. To those who believe, how- ever, that every occurrence in Jewish history happened in order that it might typify a future Redeemer—that the Cities of Refuge, for example, were intended as types of the ultimate Refuge, instead of a mere pro- tection against the lex talionis, this little book will be very acceptable.

There is a chapter about the " Gral " which really strains this theory to its ultimate limit.
