Preface.
It is unfortunately only too true that the New -Hebrew
poetry has not hitherto been accorded the recognition and
appreciation to which, both as regards its form and content,
it is justly entitled. By all but the few amateurs who zealously
cultivate it it is totally neglected. It deserves to be not only
more widely known and read, but also, as a subject of scientific
research, is worthy of greater attention than it at present
receives1. Even by professed orientalists, who pursue with
eagerness and zest every discoverable fact possessing any sort
of interest and significance for the study of the sacred litera-
tures and religions of the Ancient East, this branch of oriental
literature is entirely ignored. For this state of affairs various
reasons might be adduced. One of the most cogent, doubtless,
is the absence hitherto of any trustworthy guide capable of
introducing the beginner — for even masters must on the threshold
be beginners — into the whole vast domain of this new and strange
world; a guide who could enable the learner to familiarise him-
self with the general character, extent and essential features
of the region which it would be his task afterwards to explore
independently.
On the subject of the New-Hebrew poetry a good deal has
at different times been spoken and written2. Various attempts
1 During the last ten years hardly more than two or three Doctor-
dissertations (theses for the doctor's degree at the German Universities)
dealing with the New-Hebrew poetry have been published. Candidates fear,
with only too good reason, that work of this kind will, as a rule, be rejected.
2 In works dealing with Jewish History and Literature the poetry
naturally comes in for a share of notice. Of special works in this de-
partment the following may here be mentioned: Franz Delitzsch, Zur
Geschichte der jiidischen Poesie etc., Leipzig 1836; Leop. Dukes, Ehren-
IV Preface.
have been made to conceive its spirit, to set forth its forms,
to penetrate its language. The poets themselves even have been
made to rise from their graves and solemnly arraigned before
the tribunal of criticism. There judgment has been pronounced
upon them; their idiosyncrasies pourtrayed; their knowledge
and capacity estimated; their creations and achievements now
praised up to the skies, now subjected to scorn and contumely-
sometimes with justice, sometimes not; often with impartiality,
but often only as the objects of an unreasoning love or hatred.
The creations of the New-Hebrew muse itself, however, have
interested but few. The actual poetry has remained for the
most part buried in the safe obscurity of MSS. and rare printed
books; while the little material that did see the light, thanks
to the self-sacrificing labours of a few enthusiastic scholars and
investigators1, has largely remained unnoticed and misunderstood,
because (for the reason above stated) systematic study of the
literature as a whole has not so far been possible. Gratz's
endeavour to supply the deficiency by the publication of an
anthology2 did not (for reasons which need not here be enlarged
upon) succeed; and since his no other attempt has been made
to form, upon scientific principles, a collection of poems as an
introduction to the study of the New-Hebrew poetical literature.
In undertaking the task of selecting and editing the present
series our aim has been to fill up the void, the existence of
s'aulen und Denksteine etc., "Wien 1837, and Zur Kenntnili der neuhebr'aischen
religiosen Poesie, Francfort on the Main 1842; Michael Sachs, Die reli-
giose Poesie der Juden in Spanien, Berlin 1845 (2nd edition, Berlin 1901);
S. J. Kaempf, Nichtandalusische Poesie andalusischer Dichter etc., Prag
1858 (vol. I, part II p. 147 ff.) ; Leop. Z unz, Die synagogale Poesie des Mittel-
alters, Berlin 1855, and Die Literaturgeschichte der synagogalen Poesie, Berlin
1865; A. Sulzbach, Die poetische Literatur, in Winter & Wiinsche, Die
judische Literatur seit Abschluli des Kanons, vol. Ill, Trier 1896 (pp. 1 — 216).

L. Dukes, S. D.Luzzatto, and Senior Sachs. In the last quarter of
the last century A. Harkavy, D. Rosin, and E. Egers more particularly
have worked in this department. Of Christian scholars must be mentioned
the names of Thomas Chenery (Machberoth Ithiel by Jehudah ben She-
lomoh Alcharizi . . . London & Edinburgh 1872) and Paul de Lagarde

which must have been painfully felt by all who have ever wished
to promote the study and intelligent appreciation of a branch
of literature which embodies the thought and sentiments of many
minds of rare distinction and gifts. Before we proceed, how-
ever, to present our collection to our readers, a word must be
said as to the plan and arrangement of the selected texts.
It has been our endeavour, on the one hand, to illustrate
in an adequate way the essential characteristics and features
of each poet's work, and, on the other, so to group the material
as to enable the student to gain a sufficient knowledge of the
poetry as a whole in all its various forms and branches; and,
at the same time, to make the process of its development in-
telligible. Accordingly the poets have been arranged in chrono-
logical order so far as the compositions bearing their names
which have been transmitted to us allow1, and so far as their
works are accessible. The number of poems included in each
case corresponds with the importance of the poet, and his
position in literature.
We begin, then, with the poets who 'commenced twittering
in the days of Hisda'i'2, viz. with Menahem ben Seruq and
Dunas ben Labrat (10th century), who, likely enough, were no
Spaniards by birth, but whose whole literary work was accom-
plished in Spain, and of whom the latter especially exercised
a lasting influence on the New-Hebrew poetry by transferring
to it the Arabic metre 3. We then proceed to trace its further
development; it is seen at its height in the time ofSemu'elthe
Nagid (died 1055; Gabirol [1020 — 1070] is especially prominent
1 Of the poets quoted in the 'macame of the Andalusian poets' (nr. 149)
by Harizi the following are omitted in our work: 'Abun (the elder), Mose b.
Tokna, Mose Chiquitilla ha-K6hen, Jishaq b. Baruk, 'Adonim (not to be
identified with Dunas^ben Labrat), Mose (according to another reading Josef)
b. Seset, Abraham al-Harizi, Selomo b. Zikbel (cf. nr. 149 note 135), ben
Barzel, Jehuda b. Abbas (no Spaniard), Jishaq Krispin. Of Jequti'el b.
Hassan, the favourer of Gabirol a religious poem is said to be extant in a
MS. (cf. Zunz, Literaturgesch. p. 567), but all attempts to find it have been
without success.

at this time) ; we admire its glorious efflorescence l in M6§e ibn
'Ezra (1070—1140) and Jehiida ha-Lewi (died 1150); we watch
its gradual decline till the last brief flickering up (before total
extinction) in Jehfida Harizi (1170—1235), the genial poet of
macames, and the last great representative of the ancient clas-
sical school, although not the last poet on Spanish ground.
We have been led to limit our collection to the poetry pro-
duced in Spain not only because, as a matter of fact, it was in
Spain that the finest which the New-Hebrew literature has to
offer blossomed forth, but also because we desired that our work
should form a well-rounded, compact, and finished whole. It
would have been impossible to secure this end, without unduly
enlarging the collection, if we had attempted to illustrate the
work of the poets of all countries in our selection. Moreover,
the numerous points of contact with Arabic poetry, which the
poems of the Spanish-Arabic epoch so largely display will be
of great interest to Orientalists.
In making the selection it has been our aim to include a
sufficient number of examples to illustrate amply all the more im-
portant kinds and classes of poetry employed, as well as the tech-
nical means and artifices used by the poets, whether as regards
the treatment of the subject-matter, or the external form and
style. Prose (rhymed-prose) as well as poetry proper has been
given a place; compositions written in exact metre2 together
with those in which the number of syllables only is counted 3, and
also those in which not even the number of syllables is regarded,
are exemplified; and due attention has been given in the col-
lection to the verse-poems and the construction of the strophe
in its manifold forms and formations, as well as to the 'girdle-
poems' (MuwasSahat). Illustrations have been given of the
treatment of rhyme, in its various construction, the catch-word
(refrain), the pun (Tegnis), and the acrostic4. In the same way

we have taken care to classify and illustrate the varying phases
of character exhibited in the inner composition of the verses, such
as synthesis, antithesis, and the like1.
The literature with which we are now concerned, naturally
and obviously falls in respect of its subject matter into two
classes; viz. into religious or synagogical and profane or secular
poetry. Both classes have been similarly treated in our col-
lection, and their different varieties exemplified. In one curious
point the secular poems, diverse as they otherwise are in character
and purpose, share a common distinguishing feature — they hardly
ever bear a Hebrew designation; and only occasionally has an
Arabic term been used in the titles with which the poems are
provided in the manuscripts. With the religious poetry the
case is different. Here every piece has its [Hebrew] name, which
sometimes has reference to the form2, but more often connects
itself with the contents and purpose of the poem and thus serves
to fix its place in the Liturgy. These names have been ex-
plained in the notes, and, as far as possible, with reference to
their contexts3; in so doing we trust we have not imposed upon
ourselves an unnecessary task.
In editing the poems our first care has been to give the
text as correctly as possible. We have spared neither means
nor pains to consult the rarest prints and manuscripts for our
work. At the same time we have not thought it either necessary
or desirable, in a book of this kind, to note all the various
readings which the documents offer. With few exceptions we
have only given variants in those cases in which we felt our-
selves unable to decide between conflicting readings where the
latter seemed to be equally well attested, or equally doubtful;
the same course has also been adopted where a variant appeared
to support a different view of the passage from our own. We
In order to emphasize their special character more distinctly the acrostics
are printed in larger type.
1 It is impossible to enumerate here all the technical devices employed
by the poets in order to secure for their work the stamp of exterior poetical
form or to gain an effect. The detailed description of these belongs partly
to the department of poetics, partly to that of the theory of style.

have also registered the evidence of the documents in all those
cases where we felt compelled to emend the text or to adopt
an emendation proposed by others. And lastly, all the various
readings have been noted in those cases where only MSS. were
available as documentary authority1. In all other cases we have
contented ourselves with performing the diorthosis of the text in
accordance with the evidence of the sources within our reach, and
with mentioning these sources in the notes. Thus room is left
for further research and investigation on the part of the amateur.
In the matter of vocalisation and orthography the principles
explained in the introduction to the Diwan of Jehudfi ha-Lewi2
have in general been followed. Throughout, the rules of grammar
and the traditional transmitted text of Holy Scripture have
been accorded a decisive voice; but the exigencies of rhyme
and metre have had to be respected as well, and these have
sometimes over-ridden grammar and Masora, This is especially
the case where the pronominal suffix of the 2 pers. sing. masc.
is preceded by Sewa quiescens, in such a manner that two
Sewa stand together, the second of which is mobile (e. g. ^"H) ;
when this form would be incompatible with the rhyme, or the
metre does not admit a Sewa mobile, the Aram. (= the fern.)
form has been employed (^H51 no. 22 v. 47; ^3K no. 29 v. 10;
^NOS no. 23 v. 12; other examples in no. 53 and elsewhere).
Where, again, grammar requires a Sewa compos., but this is
impossible for metrical reasons, a Sewa simplex takes its place,
in order to show that metrically it is equivalent to a Sewa,
quiescens. On the other hand Sewa quiescens is, as a rule,
provided with a Meteg ( — ) in those cases where the metre
of the verses desiderates a short syllable, (i. e. in this case a
Sewa, mobile), in order to show that metrically it is to be
regarded as mobile. The rhyme has influenced the orthography
to this extent, that sometimes the defective manner of writing
has been chosen for words written plene in the Bible and vice
versa. In adopting this course our intention has been to render
the rhyme typographically more prominent.

Preface. IX
We have not considered it any part of our task to explain
the poems individually throughout.
A commentary does not fall within the scope of the book
which is to be regarded purely as a text-book, the sole aim of
which is to provide the appropriate material for those who wish
to elucidate the New-Hebrew poetry independently, and to point
the way to scholars for original research. Some indispensable help
is given in the notes in the shape of references to those passages
in the Bible, Talmud, Midras and other works on which the phra-
seology of the poems is based, or which contribute something to
the comprehension of the phraseology. Explanatory notes have
only been added in the case of specially difficult passages, or
where a faulty text had to be guarded against, or, lastly, in
cases where explanations given by others had to be corrected,
or where a wrong interpretation would easily suggest itself.
The dictionary (pp. 196 ff.) is prefaced by a short note, giving
particulars as to its contents. In this connexion it is necessary
to emphasize the fact that very often the signification of a
word in the New-Hebrew poetry only seemingly shows an ampli-
fication of its biblical meaning. In many cases the ancient
interpreters have translated a bible-word differently from what
is done to-day (after centuries of philological research and in-
vestigation). The fact must not be overlooked that our modern
dictionaries err somewhat on the side of excess in their con-
scientiousness ; they often allow a word only that meaning which
it doubtless has in the particular context; whereas the older
lexicographers, without regard to this modifying factor, have in
many cases invested the word with an absolute meaning (which
doubtless belongs to it in other contexts). We have occasionally
registered such words with a meaning seemingly non-Biblical;
it would have been, however, quite impossible for us to deal in
this way with all such cases without giving more value to trifles
than is due to them.
It will be the duty of the reader, therefore, arlways to have
regard to the opinions of the older commentators, and not merely
to seek counsel and instruction from modern dictionaries. At-
tention must also be paid to the views of the ancients in the
matter of new formations of words — formations which are often

grammatically impossible in the light of modern knowledge and
accepted principles. Since in the most ancient period the bi-
literality of the so-called weak verbal roots was axiomatic,
formations which, in the light of the knowledge we possess,
could only be derived from verbs med. gem, (V"V) could, without
scruple, be applied in the case of roots which we designate as
V'JJ. For the writers of these poems, of course, these distinctions
did not exist; in their eyes 3$ p1#) and DD (MD) belonged to
the same category, and were employed grammatically in the
same way according to the same rules1.
With these observations we bring our preface to a con-
clusion. Our thanks are due to Prof. W. Bacher for his well-
known kindness in reading the proof-sheets; also to O. Miiller,
Ph. D., at Oldenburg for the revision of the English translation,
and to the Rev. G. H. Box, of S. John's College Oxford, for the
revision of the English Preface.
We now send forth this book to the world with the hope
that it may serve to stimulate in wider circles a genuine in-
terest in the New- Hebrew poetry, which forms so splendid a
literature — a literature which gives us a glimpse into the soul-
life of generous men who found time amidst their serious scien-
tific activities to pay homage to the muse, and, in showing how
their hearts were moved by joy and sorrow, to create poetical
masterpieces; a literature, moreover, that helps us to understand
the feelings and sentiments of a nation which, though torn from
its native soil and transplanted to foreign lands, lives its own
life and speaks its own language, and which also knows how
to endow the forms, cleverly appropriated from other peoples,
with the spirit of its own manners, characteristics, and genius.

case of the Spaniards, it may be remarked, such phenomena are rare, since
they were acquainted from the time of Jehuda Hajjug onward (about the
year 1000) with the principle of triliterality, and generally acknowledged it
too. Such formations, as those referred to above — ungrammatical to modern
eyes — are often met with in the poets outside Spain: 'Efazar Qalir in this

16: Trip, p t"Ba for Musaf of the day of expiation. Together with
the translation by Zunz (syn. Poesie p 131) given as epitome by Berliner,
Synagogal-Poesien (Berlin 1884) p 27 Nr. 18 — The poem belongs to the
kind of Rahit (crn, pi. D,B,n"l). "With this word, meaning bolt, beam, one
originally denoted biblewords & parts of verses which served as frame to
poetical pieces; one soon transferred the signification to the pieces them-
selves, then to poems, which like that in question vary a word of the
Bible in short sentences. For tt\"H one sometimes finds the Greek nomin-
ation fcfB'l'n (Spofxo;), runner, and so it came, that pieces quickly recited
were likewise called B\*n or fern. ntnrn (e. g. Nr. 10) ; cf. Zunz, syn. Poesie
p 79 & Litgsch. p 24 — 1: Ps 104,24 — p2! 'and so' (is, or: may then) is the
word, with which is introduced the bibleverse to be varied or the theme
(cf. Zunz, syn. Poesie p 79) — 4c: cf. Job 37, 18 — 6b: The 'rolling wheel'
is the thunder — 8b: cf. Job 38, 38 — 10b: «)Bl$m *pp, as ed. has, cannot be
right for that reason, because the parts of the verses must consist of two
words — 12: =^BJ?0 ^atpn^i "Di1? W"\~b; in a are three words, because the
acrostic wanted a word with 1 — 14b: ed. has *}p1t — 16b: "iriDI, ed.: nnsi
(Berliner right) — 18a: (If the text is correct) 'the beings of pure souls',
the men — 18c: cf. Ps 50, 10. 11.

18 : Qer. Algier p B"ob, for the first day of the passover. — The ex-
planation of the designation ]B1K be given here in continuity. Upon the
Hitsn ''JNDB (s. headremark to Nr. 7) follows an Aramaic piece, glorifying
God, B^j?, and a call to the praise of God, ?3"]2; the Sema' (pet?) consisting
of Deut6,4— 9; 11,13—21; Num 15, 37— 41 is* annexed to it.' The Semac
is enclosed by three benedictions, viz. preceding 1) "W, a benediction
announcing the praise of the creator of light, beginning with a blessing ("ISV
"UK), enclosing the first Qedussa* and concluding with a blessing (nnhfin "W,) ;
2) mnx treating the love of God to Israel ; it begins with the words nai «*nnK
and ends with a blessing (ran«2 bvrto] 1D?3 inlan). The Sema is followed
3) by n^Kji, a piece of prayer, which amongst others represents God as the
only helper and saviour (this part ends with the words ^nblt Dsr6K \% 2 Sam
7,22; lChrl7,20), treats the salvation from Egypt (this part ends with the
quotation of two verses of 'the song at the sea' Ex 15, 11. 18) and at last asks
for salvation (this piece ends with the blessing biffo?) b»h, from which the
whole poem has its name — »*^$); "Bd Zunz, Gottesd. Vortrage, sec. ed.
Frankfurt a/M. 1892 p 382 f. This part of the morning-prayer has now been
embellished by the masters of the synag. poetry in the following way. Qaddis
and Bareku are each one preceded by an introduction 1) Vf^pb fNBh, also
called shortly K^j?, 2) *3"D^ W^Jj also shortly tola. To Joser are annexed
3) "iSV immediately following the beginning blessing and called after the first
word of this blessing (but little cared for by Spanish poets) ; 4) ]B1K preceding
the Qedussa and called )B1K with regard to the sentence introducing the real
Qedussa (the three times holy of Is 6,3 & the glorification of the angels Ez
3, 12), which begins with the words Bhpn ni»m D^BINni (cf. Ez 3, 13) ; 5) m,1KO,
preceding the blessing which concludes the piece & called after the last word
of this blessing (rniND is also called the whole piece being in question);
6) rnnK inserted in the benediction equally named, viz. shortly before the
blessing that ends it (before the words US^tt urD"!j5}) ; 7) Insertion in the
Geulla behind the words Tjnbtt wrbx yx & called n^t on account of the last
word; 8) JJ1B3 ^0 preceding the quotation of Ex 15,11 and beginning with the
first words of the quotation ?J1B3 *$ (these poems have all equal construction
and treat as a rule the history from the creation of the world till the crossing
of the sea, as the epoch when Israel has intonated the hymn containing the
quotation; not to be confounded with the insertion in Nismat, having the
same name which was in question in the headremark to Nr. 7); 9) n^W, is
* "isr nBhp or ttf*f*\ nahp to distinguish from the m/en ntthp or TlBhj?
simply, which is inserted in the third number of the so-called eighteen-
prayer, & from the «"J"]p"| nBhj?, following the prayer; about these three Qedus-
sot see particulars in Joel Miiller, Masechet Soferim, Leipzig 1878, p 226 ff.

which turns out to be at a wrong place. To 16b cf. Dan 12,13 — 18: cf.

3a: n^nn obtains here a special meaning, if one observes that the above
mentioned poem (to 24 v. 29a) was caused by an event which has happened
the one before the feast of the tabernacles, and that the nbrtn was perhaps
read for the first time a week later on occasion of the feast — 3b: cf. Ps
119, 48 — 4: cf. Ps5,2; 28,2.
32: Sen. Sachs, Dibre Selomo etc. (without title-page) p 8ff. (Ss) & ms.
Oxf. 1970 fol. 131—1: The i in vuro (a) & "nnaxa (b)=through — 2: K'ntf
instead of tcntf like Eccl 2,22 — 3: D.T1?? refers to nvvn "\»J> in a; for expl.
of the verse see Ss. — 5a: '32^ my own conscience, cf. Berakot fol. 61b —
9b: 'still lasts the day, still is not finished the circulation (of the time of mis-
fortune)' — 10: n in mn,n is not interrogative, but rather serves for con-
firmation: 'really dying . . .'; "3n is often met with in the same sense ('for
truly') ; cf. DB. I notes p 198 — The poem is, as Ss. rightly remarks, kept
in the form of a dialogue; 1 — 2, B — 6, 9 — 10 spoken by the poet, 3—4, 7 — 8
by the friend, to whom he complains his misery.
38: This piece after a Geniza-fragment in the possession of the B,abb.
Israel Levi in Paris published here for the first time, proves the exactness
of a tradition at Sa'adja b. Danan, after which Gabirol was a scholar of the
R. Nissim b. Ja'akob in Kairuwan. The fragment is at some places quite
blotted out and unreadable; according to own conjecture the words & letters
put in [ — ] will only complete the thought.

bible-verse as theme, with the conclusion of which all strophe-verses have
the same word (or the same rhyme)', Zunz, syn.Poesiep98. The strophe consists,
as a rule, of three parts and a bibleverse with the word which rhymes, i. e. with
the last word of the theme, as conclusion of the strophe. The poem in question
is more ingeniously built, as the strophes exhibit a bibleverse or a part of it
as the fourth part (with the separate rhyme), whereupon follows the real
conclusion of the strophe, being biblical as well. The signation Mustegab is
arabical (^>l^v.LU« the returning [word which rhymes]). — 1: Ps 144,3 —

49: The King's Crown (nia^O "^^), the most magnificent creation of
Gabirol's muse, is often printed & translated. We give the text according
to M. Sachs, Mahzor, Festgebete der Israeliten, 23 th ed. (Breslau 1898),
III (Jom Kippur. Abendgeb.) p XXX f., where is also to be found a German
translation, until now the best one. A reference to a particular analyse at
M. Sachs, rel. Poesie p 223 ff. is perhaps not useless. — 1 : cf. Ps 103,21 —
2: Gen 3,24 — 3: Ez 1,12 — 4: "J-iB, denom. to D-vaB pure as pearls, like
Tfip 1t33 DSP Nr 45 v. 13 (cf. Lam 4, 7); sometimes is 'ViS = 'p'JB. Further par-

104 : Oxf. 1094, for sabbath Hazon (the sabbath before the 9th 'Ab) —
To the Geulla, (see headremark to Nr. 18) is added the Tefilla (nj>sn, also
called m_to» naiotf 'eighteen-prayer'), which consists of nineteen numbers
(originally eighteen) on week-days, of seven numbers on sabbaths & holy-
days (the Musaf-Tefilla of the New- Year's day, which comprises nine numbers,
forms an exception), rQnjj is now called a poem united to the Tefilla of
the morning-prayer, that is to the 3 first numbers, as far as it is the question

about sabbath & holy-days. The Qeroba in the Spanish compositions consists,
as a rule, of following pieces: a)Magen (]i»), for the first Tefilla-nr.; b) Churug
(in3 = _^^=L), final strophe to Magen; c) Mehajje (<"Pne) for the second
Tefilla-nr.; d) Churug, final strophe to Mehajje; e) Mesalles (#>>B>B), for the
third Tefilla-nr., -whereto is added f) Silluq (pl^p), a poem which forms the
transition to the Qedussa (nyoin ntthj?, see headremark to nr. 18, foot-note);
sometimes is still added g) poetical Qedussa in connexion with the Silluq.
The whole is preceded by an introduction (n*Bh or JiO^ niBh). Between the
single pieces and the Churug that follows them are inserted Pizmon, resp.
Qina,. Particulars see with Zunz, gottesd. Vortrage (Frankfurt a. M. 1892)

ben 'Abraham ibn 'Ezra, of whom only one poem has been printed until now
(a second perhaps in the Zeitschrift fiir hebr.Bibliogr. Ill p 124 ff). Of spe-
cial interest is one poem of the collection, that gives us unexpected ex-
planation in a question, which until to-day could not be answered in a satis-
fying way; we mean the question whether Jishaq, as Harizi reports, has
really turned Mahometan. In the poem, beg. nbtf "hi "'Sn \W7\ "'a, the poet
complains in sharp words, until swearing, of a foreigner who falsely has
accused him of apostasy from the faith of his fathers and of going over to

off by it. This is perhaps the sense of these verses, which, moreover, must be

THE EXPANSION OF CHRISTIANITY IN THE
FIRST THREE CENTURIES. By Adolf Harnack,
Ordinary Professor of Church History in the University, and
Fellow of the Royal Academy of the Sciences, Berlin ; trans-
lated and edited by James Moffatt, B.D., D.D., St Andrews.
" On the value of such a work by such a writer it is scarcely necessary to
enlarge. All familiar with Professor Harnack's method expect his treatment
of a theme like this to be masterly, and their expectation is more than
realised." — Christian World.
"Nothing could surpass the excellent skill and taste with which these
volumes have been translated, edited, and produced." — British Weekly.

CHRISTIAN LIFE IN THE PRIMITIVE CHURCH.
By Ernst von Dobschiitz, Professor of New Testament in the
University of Strassburg. Translated by Rev. G. Bremner, and
edited by the Rev. W. D. Morrison, LL.D.
"It is only in the very best English work that we meet with the scientific
thoroughness and all-round competency of which this volume is a good
specimen ; while such splendid historical veracity and outspokenness would
hardly be possible in the present or would-be holder of an English theo-
logical chair." — The Speaker.
" Some may think that the author's finding is too favourable to the early
churches, but at any rate there is no volume in which material for forming a
judgment is so fully collected or so attractively presented. " — British Weekly.
Vol. XVI.
THE RELIGIONS OF AUTHORITY AND THE
RELIGION OF THE SPIRIT. By the late Auguste
Sabatier, Professor of the University of Paris, Dean of the
Protestant Theological Faculty. With a Memoir of the Author
by Jean Reville, Professor in the Protestant Theological Faculty
of the University of Paris, and a Note by Madame Sabatier.
" Without any exaggeration, this is to be described as a great book, the
finest legacy of the author to the Protestant Church of France and to the theo-
logical thought of the age. Written in the logical and lucid style which is
characteristic of the best French theology, and excellently translated, it is a
work which any thoughtful person, whether a professional student or not,
might read without difficulty." — Glasgow Herald.
Vols. XV. and XVII.
THE BEGINNINGS OF CHRISTIANITY. By Paul
Wernle, Professor Extraordinary of Modern Church History at
the University of Basel. Revised by the Author, and translated

duction, by the Rev. W. D. Morrison, LL.D.
Vol. I. The Rise of the Religion.
VoL II. The Development of the Church.
From some of the Reviews of the Work.
Dr Marcus Dods in the British Weekly — " We cannot recall any work by
a foreign theologian which is likely to have a more powerful influence on the
thought of this country than Wernle's Beginnings of Christianity. It is well
written and well translated ; it is earnest, clear, and persuasive, and above all
it is well adapted to catch the large class of thinking men who are at present
seeking some non-miraculous explanation of Christianity."

THEOLOGICAL TRANSLATION LIBRARY— Continued.
"This translation of Prof. Wernle's lectures deserves a very hearty wel-
come in England. The style is alive and vigorous, the thought suggestive ;
the whole narrative is admirably clear and simple, popular in the best sense of
the term. ... It may be accepted as a companion volume to Harnack's What
is Christianity ? as an announcement of a liberal position of slightly differing
tendency. It is quite easy and pleasant reading for the ordinary layman who
may be desirous of knowing the present position of the more advanced schools,
and how much of the traditional theology these are prepared to retain. One
could wish that a few more English theologians would attempt a similar
apologia for the edification of the perplexed lay mind." — Daily News.
" No English book covers the same ground, or is conceived with the same
breadth and sanity ; in few works in any language are learning and insight
so happily combined." — Edinburgh Review.
"The translation is well done, and the book is full of interest." —
AthentEum.

WHAT IS CHRISTIANITY? Sixteen Lectures delivered
in the University of Berlin during the Winter Term, 1899- 1900.
By Adolf Harnack. Translated by Thomas Bailey Saunders.
(New Series, Vol. XIV.) Demy 8vo, cloth, io.y. 6d. ; half-
leather, suitable for presentation, 12s. 6d.
Prof. W. Sanday of Oxford, in the examination of the work, says : — " I
may assume that Harnack's book, which has attracted a good deal of attention
in this country as in Germany, is by this time well known, and that its merits
are recognised — its fresh and vivid descriptions, its breadth of view and skilful
selection of points, its frankness, its genuine enthusiasm, its persistent effort
to get at the living realities of religion. "
' ' Seldom has a treatise of the sort been at once so suggestive and so
stimulating. Seldom have the results of so much learning been brought
to bear on the religious problems which address themselves to the modern
mind." — Pilot.
" In many respects this is the most notable work of Prof. Harnack. . . .
These lectures are most remarkable, both for the historical insight they
display and for their elevation of tone and purpose." — Literature.

portant one. . . . The translation is also exceedingly well done." — Critical

" Instinct with genuine religious feeling ; . . . exceedingly interesting
and suggestive." — Glasgow Herald.

By Professor Eberhard Nestle, of Maulbronn. Translated from

in the University of St Andrews. (New Series, Vol. XIII.)

leather, 1 2 s. 6d.
"We have no living scholar more capable of accomplishing the fascin-
ating task of preparing a complete introduction on the new and acknowledged
principles than Prof. Nestle. This book will stand the most rigorous
scrutiny ; it will surpass the highest expectation." — Expository Times.
"Nothing could be better than Dr Nestle's account of the materials
which New Testament textual criticism has to deal with." — Spectator.
"We know of no book of its size which can be recommended more cor-
dially to the student, alike for general interest and for the clearness of its
arrangement. ... In smoothness of rendering, the translation is one of the
best we have come across for a considerable time." — Manchester Guardian.
THE APOSTOLIC AGE. By Prof. Carl von Weizsacker.
Translated by James Millar, B.D. 2 vols. (New Series, Vols.
I. and V.) Demy 8vo, cloth. Each 10s. 6d.
"Weizsacker is an authority of the very first rank. The present work
marks an epoch in New Testament criticism. The English reader is fortunate
in having a masterpiece of this kind rendered accessible to him." — Expository

THE CROWN THEOLOGICAL LIBRARY.
Dr John Watson, of Liverpool : " The Crown Theological Library is
rendering valuable service to lay theologians in this country, as well as to
ministers."
The volumes are uniform in size (crown octavo) and binding, but the
price varies according to the size and importance of the work.
Vol. I. BABEL AND BIBLE. By Dr. Friedrich Delitzsch,
Professor of Assyriology in the University of Berlin. Authorised
Translation. Edited, with an Introduction, by Rev. C. H.
W. Johns. Crown 8vo, with 77 illustrations, cloth. 55.
These are the two famous Lectures which were delivered before the
Deutsche Orient-Gesellschaft in the presence of the German Emperor, and
again before the Emperor, Empress, and the Court, and which gave rise to
the Babel-Bible controversy. They set forth freshly and temperately the
close relation between the results of cuneiform studies and the more
familiar facts of the Old Testament, and clearly state the conclusions of
European scholarship as to the compilation of the Pentateuch from many
different sources, and as to its dependence on Babylonian myths for large
portions of its primeval history.
" This interestingly illustrated and well-made version of the Lectures
should satisfy both scholars and general readers, though no doubt scholars
will know best how to appreciate the high value of its arguments." — Scotsman.
" It is written in an interesting and arresting style, and gives the best
account we have seen in short compass of these most important discoveries."
— The Weekly Leader.
" It is long since any book on Biblical Archaeology could claim to be more
deeply interesting to inquiring minds than this volume must be admitted to
be by any thoughtful reader. . . . We believe that most readers will be
delighted with the book as a description, romantic in its realism, of actual
discoveries, and their bearing on the accuracy of the Old Testament state-
ments. " — Christian Commonwealth.
Vol. II. THE VIRGIN BIRTH OF CHRIST: An
Historical and Critical Essay. By Paul Lobstein, Pro-
fessor of Dogmatics in the University of Strassburg. Translated
by Victor Leuliette, A.K.C., B.-es-L., Paris. Edited, with an
Introduction, by W. D. Morrison, LL.D. Crown 8vo. 35.
" It should be added that Lobstein falls behind no one of those who have
refined the tone of modern controversy, that his attitude to those whose views
he opposes is considerate, his own purpose constructive for faith, and his tone
impressively reverent. Mr Leuliette's translation is in admirably clear and
good English. " — Hibbert Journal.
" Professor Lobstein handles his theme with a thoroughly reverent spirit,
and the book may be recommended to all who are in doubt as to this par-
ticular dogma." — Scotsman.
" No one who reads this most scholarly and convincing volume will doubt
the sincerity of the Professor's endeavour and aim ; and most readers will
gratefully own the notable success he has achieved."— .S7 Andrew.

Vol. III. MY STRUGGLE FOR LIGHT: Confessions
of a Preacher. By R. Wimmer, Pastor of Weisweil-am-
Rhein in Baden. Crown 8vo, cloth. $s. 6d.
Dr. P. T. Forsyth, Principal of Hackney College. — "A beautiful transla-
tion of a beautiful book."
" It is a book which will appeal to ministers who are anxious to preserve
intellectual sincerity, and to thoughtful laymen who are turning over in their
mind the deepest problems of religion. The author's spirit thoughout the
book reminds one of Martineau. The tone and style of the book are
admirable." — Dr. John Watson in Christian Commonwealth.
" Well worth translating and adding to the Crown Theological Library.
It is a book of beautiful intention and most sincere aspiration." — Expository
Times.
' ' This is a notable and vital book, full of keen thought and sweet with
the fragrance of true piety." — Week's Survey.
"This is a delightful book, for we have in it, not the result of scholar-
ship, though that is sound and wide, but the faithful record of the victorious
struggles of a religious genius with the spectres of a mind which assail every
earnest and thoughtful man in this critical age. The book has one of the
marks of true greatness — absolute sincerity. The entire courage, simplicity,
and clearmindedness with which Wimmer faces the difficulties of modern
religious thought enforce our admiration, and win our trust and sympathy."
— Examiner.
Vol. IV. LIBERAL CHRISTIANITY: Its Origin, Nature,
and Mission. By Jean Reville, Professeur adjoint a la
Faculte de Theologie Protestante de l'Universite de Paris.
Translated and edited by Victor Leuliette, A.K.C., B.-es-L.
Crown 8vo, cloth. 4s.
' ' The book is a powerful, lucid and interesting restatement of the position
of Protestantism in regard to modern advances in philosophy and science. "
— Scotsman.
"We commend the book for its lucid style, vigorous reasoning, and
spiritual aims." — Christian Commonwealth.
"Admirably translated and edited by Victor Leuliette ; is a book which
will be of great value to all who are interested in the history of religious
development." — St Andrew.
"An honest and earnest effort to vindicate the eternal place of religion
in the life of man, and deserves all respect." — Week's Survey.
Vol. V. WHAT IS CHRISTIANITY? By Adolf Harnack,
Professor of Church History in the University, Berlin. Trans-
lated by Thomas Bailey Saunders. Crown 8vo. $s.
Prof. W. Sanday, of Oxford, in an examination of the work, says : "I
may assume that Harnack's book, which has attracted a good deal of attention
in this country as in Germany, is by this time well known, and that its merits
are recognised — its fresh and vivid descriptions, its breadth of view and skilful
selection of points, its frankness, its genuine enthusiasm, its persistent effort
to get at the living realities of religion."
" In many respects this is the most notable work of Prof. Harnack. . . .
These lectures are most remarkable, both for the historical insight they dis-
play and for their elevation of tone and purpose. " — Literature.

THE CROWN THEOLOGICAL LIBRARY-Continued.
Vol. VI. FAITH AND MORALS. By W. Herrmann, Pro-
fessor of Systematic Theology at the University of Marburg;
Author of "The Communion of the Christian with God."
Crown 8vo, cloth. 5*.
Two of the author's shorter writings, with brief notes by the translators.
One is on Ritschl, and discusses the Protestant notion of Christian Belief;
the other on Romanist versus Protestant Ethics, showing the fundamentally
opposite conceptions of the moral law underlying recent Jesuit and Protestant
views of truth-speaking or of conscience. An Appendix written for the last
German edition deals with three replies.
Vol. VII. EARLY HEBREW STORY. A Study of the
Origin, the Value, and the Historical Background of the
Legends of Israel. By John P. Peters, D.D., Rector of
St Michael's Church, New York ; author of " Nippur, or
Explorations and Adventures on the Euphrates." Crown 8vo,
cloth. 5s.
These lectures were originally delivered as Bond Lectures before the
Bangor Theological Seminary in Bangor, Me. , U.S.A. Extract from a minute
adopted by the faculty of that institution after the delivery of those lectures :
— " The broad and ripe scholarship, the fresh knowledge of details, the
constructive temper, and the reverent Christian spirit which were always
manifest, gave these lectures exceptional worth, not only for the student
body, but for the large company of thoughtful people who heard them."
" These lectures are certainly of quite exceptional worth. Dr. Peters
has for many years given the attention of a ripe and thorough scholar to
the beginnings of history in Israel ; and these lectures will not only interest
the general reader, but will suggest much to the expert." — British Weekly.
Vol. VIII. BIBLE PROBLEMS AND THE NEW
MATERIAL FOR THEIR SOLUTION. A Plea
for Thoroughness of Investigation addressed to
Churchmen and Scholars. By the Rev. T. K. Cheyne,
D.Litt, D.D., Fellow of the British Academy; Oriel Professor
of Interpretation in the University of Oxford, and Canon of
Rochester. Crown 8vo. 5^.
"The temper of his book is admirably gentle and restrained, and the
matter is of most living interest." — Academy and Literature.
" The work is remarkably interesting and learned .... those who wish
to understand what problems are likely to engage attention in the near
future ought not to neglect the book." — British Friend.
Vol. IX. THE DOCTRINE OF THE ATONEMENT
AND ITS HISTORICAL EVOLUTION ; and RE-
LIGION AND MODERN CULTURE. By the late
Auguste Sabatier, Professor in the University of Paris, and Dean
of the Protestant Theological Faculty. Translated by Victor
Leuliette, A.K.C., B.-es-L. Crown 8vo. 4*. 6d.
"The essay on The Atonement is a masterly outline sketch of the
historical evolution of the doctrine." — Oxford Chronicle.

THE CROWN THEOLOGICAL LIBRARY— Continued.
"The second portion of the volume is an admirable statement of the
mental condition of the modern world, its doubts and confusions, and of
the true method of resolving them. . . . Both the studies in the volume are
profoundly interesting ; marked everywhere by the piercing insight, philo-
sophic grasp, and deep spirituality which are characteristic of this great and
lamented Christian thinker." — The Christian World.
Vol. X. THE EARLY CHRISTIAN CONCEPTION OF
CHRIST: Its Value and Significance in the History
of Religion. By Otto Pfleiderer, D.D., Professor of Practical
Theology in the University, Berlin. Crown 8vo. y. 6d.
"We can heartily recommend Professor Pfleiderer's book as a solid
contribution towards the solution of the question which it discusses." — St
Andrew.
" It would be difficult to name any recent English work which could
compare with this brilliant essay as a concise but lucid presentation of the
attitude of the more advanced school of German theologians to the founder
of the Christian religion. " — Scotsman.
Vol. XI. THE CHILD AND RELIGION: Eleven
Essays. By Prof. Henry Jones, M.A., LL.D., University of
Glasgow ; C. F. G. Masterman, M. A. ; Prof. George T. Ladd,

" No fresher and more instructive book on this question has been issued
for years, and the study of its pages will often prove a godsend to many
perplexed minds in the church and in the Christian home."— British Weekly.

" His book (if he is right in his identification of the Minim) is a history of
Judaising Christianity — the first independent and competent history written in
English." — Expository Times.
" It must become at once the standard authority on its subject." — Man-
chester Guardian.
" It is no exaggeration to say that it will prove indispensable not only to
scholars interested in Talmudic literature, but to all who study the subject of
the evangelical tradition. It will introduce the reader into a new world —
that of Jewish thought in the centuries after Christ." — Cambridge Review.

KAUTZSCH (E.). AN OUTLINE OF THE HISTORY
OF THE LITERATURE OF THE OLD TESTA-
MENT. With Chronological Tables for the History of the
Israelites, and other Aids to the Explanation of the Old Testa-
ment. Reprinted from the " Supplement to the Translation of
the Old Testament." By E. Kautzsch, Professor of Theology
at the University of Halle. Edited by the Author. Translated
by John Taylor, D.Lit., M.A., etc. Demy 8vo, cloth. 6^. 6d.
"This English translation ... is likely to prove very acceptable to
all those students who desire to see for themselves the view taken by the
' higher critics ' of the growth of the Old Testament." — The Guardian.
' ' Dr. Taylor has rendered a great service to the English readers by
his excellent translation of this important work." — British Weekly.
"As to matter, it is the work of a scholar who is not afraid of results
suggested by fair research, but who never grasps at novelties merely for
the sake of originality. In style and language, the book reads more like an
original than a translation ; an original, too, which in its terseness of
expression has escaped the prolix obscurity so commonly complained of in
the writings of the author's country." — Church Gazette.
" A brief yet comprehensive statement of critical opinion respecting the
order and origin of the Old Testament books." — Methodist Times.

" It is not too much to say that we close this book, the most interesting,
and certainly one of the most important we have ever opened, feeling better,
wiser, and humbler for having thus hastily read it. " — Academy.
" It is a book for all men and for all time. In its pages the thinker may
trace, step by step, the synthesis of synthetic philosophy. Here the poet
will find not only a worthy inspiration, but a possibly surprising vein of
sympathy. The statesman, the inventor, the litterateur, the man of theory,
and the man of practice will find alike, within the covers of these two
massive volumes, an almost inexhaustible treasury of interest and constructive
thought. There is suggestion and instruction for all the world, and an
almost indefinable fascination — whether it be due to the mere intrinsic
beauty of the picture itself, or to the dignity of its execution, or to the sense
of its almost laborious faithfulness, or to the combined attraction of all
three. " — St James's Gazette.

ARMY SERIES OF FRENCH AND GERMAN
NOVELS. Edited, with short Notes, by J. T. W.
Perowne, M.A.
This series is equally well adapted for general reading, and for those
preparing for the Army, Oxford and Cambridge Certificates, and other
Examinations — in fact, for all who wish to keep up or improve their
French and German. The notes are as concise as possible, with an
occasional etymology or illustration to assist the memory. The books
selected being by recent or living authors, are adapted for the study of
most modern French and German.
LE COUP DE PISTOLET, etc. Prosper Merimee.
2S. 6d.
"A book more admirably suited to its purpose could not be desired.
The Editors deserve to be congratulated." — National Observer.
"The first two volumes are an excellent choice, and we advise any one,
whether candidate or lay, to purchase the volume of Merimee."— -Journal of
Education.
VAILLANTE. Jacques Vincent, ft*. 6d.
"The books are well got up, and in Vaillante an excellent choice has

' ' The notes are few and brief, but all are helpful. The story itself is a

AUF VERLORNEM POSTEN AND NAZZAR-
ENA DANTI. Johannes v. Dewall. 3s.
"The two stories by Johannes v. Dewall are well suited for their
purpose ; the style and diction are not too difficult for those whose ac-
quaintance with German is not extensive, and ample explanatory annotation
is provided. — Saturday Review.
"Well printed, well bound, and annotated just sufficiently to make the
reading of them sure as well as easy." — Educational Times.

40 WILLIAMS & NORGATE'S
ARMY SERIES-Continued.
CONTES MILITAIRES. A. Daudet. 2s. 6d.
"These stories are mainly culled from a series called Contes du Lundi,
originally contributed by their author to the Figaro. Written at fever heat
immediately after the great 1870 war, they show Daudet's power in many
ways at its highest. . . . We therefore do more than recommend— we
urge all readers of French to get the stories in some form, and the present
one is both good and cheap. The paper is excellent, and the type clear and
bold. ... A neat map of Paris will assist the reader in following the
movement of the stories." — The Schoolmaster.
" The choice is an exceptionally good one, and the notes are excellent."
— Guardian.
ERZAHLUNGEN. E. Hofer. 3s.
"The series has brought fascinating examples of fiction under the eyes of
English readers in a neat and handy form. Besides having the military
flavour, they are models of style." — Scotsman.

"The work of a sensible iconoclast, who does not pull down for the
sake of mere destruction, but is anxious to set up something more worthy in
place of the medisevalism he attacks." — Outlook.
" Let me commend this wise volume not only to teachers but to all con-
cerned in national education. And especially to the politician. Half an hour
with Sir Oliver Lodge would make him realise that there are problems on the
inner side of the school door not dreamt of in his philosophy — would make
him feel that the more he knows of these the better will he be able wisely to
handle those others about which he is glibly talking every day." — Dr
Macnamara in the Daily Chronicle.

"The fact that this well-known standard work has reached a sixth
edition is evidence of its value to ethnologists and archaeologists. The many
and beautiful illustrations are most helpful in better understanding the plain
but accurate letterpress. Lord Avebury is to be congratulated on the new
edition, which is sure to further popularise a fascinating subject for investiga-
tion by cultured people." — Science Gossip.
" It is necessary to compare the present volume with the fifth edition in
order to see how much it has been improved. The illustrations to this sixth
edition are immeasurably superior to the fifth." — Knowledge.

" There is, for English readers at least, no existing medium for expression
of free-thought in this best sense ; and should anything but success await the
venture of publishing 'The Hibbert Journal,' we shall confess painful sur-
prise. ... It will be a reflection on our theological and philosophical
students if they do not show full appreciation of a journal so admirably
planned and so strongly commenced. . . . For the form of the journal we
have nothing but praise, the print being large and the margins ample. We
have never with more sincerity wished well to a new undertaking ; and
should it fulfil its undoubted possibilities, ' The Hibbert Journal ' must be
of immense service to all serious and progressive students of the subjects with
which it deals." — Christian World.
