The Editor is also under deep obligations to the many scholars who, notwithstanding the pressure of other duties, have yet given themselves so unsparingly to the tasks they had undertaken, that in every instance most valuable service has been rendered to the student and the scholar, while in not a few instances their contributions form actual monographs within the limits assigned. His thanks are due to Messrs. A. And C. Black, the publishers of his editions of Jubilees, Martyrdom of Isaiah, Testament of the XII Patriarchs, Assumption of Moses, 2 Baruch, for permission to reprint the translation and make use of the introduction and notes contained in those editions. Finally, he would acknowledge his indebtedness to the Rev. A. L]. Davies, who has acted throughout as his secretary and also made the General Index.

Excerpt from A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Revelation of St. John, Vol. 2 of 2: With Introduction, Notes, and Indices, Also the Greek Text and English Translation The Object of xiv. Is to encourage the faithful to endurance in the face of impending universal martyrdom. Hence in xiv. 1 - 5 the veil is lifted for a moment from the future and to the Seer is disclosed a vision of the martyrs enjoying the blessedness of the Millennial Kingdom on Mount Zion in attendance on their Lord. We have here a later stage of their blessedness than that depicted in vii. 9 - 17, where the martyrs are represented as having arrived or arriving in heaven straight from the scene of martyrdom. See Chapter v11., Introduction, 10. But the faithful are further encouraged to endurance and loyalty by the proclamation of the doom of the proud anti christian power, xiv. 8 - 1 1, and of all the heathen powers whether confederate with it or not, xiv. 14, 18 - 20.

Excerpt from Anecdota Oxoniensia, or the Ethiopic Version of the Hebrew Book of Jubilees The Book of Jubilees, which is really a haggadic commentary on Genesis, is important as being the chief and practically sole monument of legalistic Pharisaism, belonging to the century immediately preceding the Christian era. As we have the other side of Pharisaism - its apocalyptic and mystical side - represented in the Book of Enoch, so here we have its natural complement in the hard and inexorable legalism under whose yoke, according to the author, creation was subject from the beginning, and must be subject for evermore.
