Book Description

Excerpt from Notes on the Hebrew Text and the Topography of the Books of Samuel: With an Introduction on Hebrew Palaeography and the Ancient Versions and Facsimiles of Inscriptions and Maps A portion of the volume was already in type, when the loan of some ms. Notes of the late Prof. Duncan H. Weir, extending as far as 2 Sam. 4, 13 1, was offered to me. Know ing, from the extracts in Prof. Cheyne's [said/z the value of Dr. Weir's suggestions, I thankfully availed myself of the offer. The notes, I found, were less complete than I had expected; and though I gladly quoted from them what I could, I did not obtain from them as much assistance as I had hoped.
