The Elepositor's Dictionary of Texts. Edited by the Rev. Sir

W. Robertson Nicoll and Jane T. Stoddart, with the co-operation of James Moffatt, D.D. Vol. H. "Luke to Revelation." (Hodder and Stoughton. 26s. net.)—This is a volume of outlines of sermons taken from preachers of repute. A column or so is given to the text epitomized from one discourse ; this is followed by references to other sermons, commentaries, &e., bearing on the subject. We should say it was a very useful book, not the less so because it does not furnish the reader with ready-made goods, but leaves him plenty of opportunity for exerting himself.
