Am‘. vn.—ALPHABETICAL LIST OF WORKS ON THE BOOK OF REVELATION.
THE reader of the subjoined list will be much interested, pro bably, in the multitude of writers on this book, inasmuch as
the fact of their writing on it shows the amount of attention given to it; yet, also, the reader will feel, amid such a forest
of writings, that there is an indication of the difliculty of the book; for if a former writer seems to himself to have proved his hypothesis, or system, or interpretation, or scheme, the list
will shew that some “ neighbour cometh and searcheth him.” Who will not say, after he has looked into this enumeration of several hundred writers, almost all of different views, that there
is good reason for modesty and humility on the part of any interpreter of the Apocalypse? yet who will not also cheerfully admit that not one of those who wrote in love and faith but own the reward promised, “Blessed is he that readeth, and they
that hear the words of this prophecy.” If they have failed in many things, yet they have done what they could, and now “ the time is at hand.” Abauzit, Firmin.

Had space allowed we should gladly have given the complete title of each of the preceding works; but this would have been
a labour of great difliculty, and would have occupied far more sheets than we can afford to give.
Though the list is not a
perfect one, it is, we believe, the fullest that has as yet been
given.
Those who study the prophetic word will not read it
as a mere bookseller’s catalogue, but as a record of the studies of
the Church in past ages, and a proof of how uniformly and how steadfastly the eyes of the saints have been turned to the hope held out to us by God, and a declaration of the exceeding value and importance attached by Bible students to that won
drous Book, which sums up all Scripture, and contains in it the destinies of the world and the glories of the Churchéwith
the joys and sorrows, the darkness and the light, the persecu tion and the triumph, that were to form the history of time
from the departure of the Lord to His reappearance and reign. —-We hope to continue the catalogue in our next. .1'.
