EXPLANATION.— The “Linear” Parallel Teachers’ Bible is a combination of the Authorized and Revised Versions. The words which are the same in both are set in Pica type, and where differences occur the Authorized version is given in the top line, and the New or Revised version in the bottom line of small type.

Hagar bears Ishmael. GENESIS, 17. Abram’s name changed.

handmaid, after Ā’bram had dwelt ten years in the land of Ca’naän, and gave her to her husband Ā’bram her husband to be his wife.

4 ¶ And he went in unto Ha’gar, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.

5 And Sa’rai said unto Ā’bram, My wrong be upon thee: I have given my handmaid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: the LORD judge between me and thee.

6 But Ā’bram said unto Sa’rai, Behold, thy maid is in thy hand; do to her that which is good in thine eyes. And when Sa’rai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.

7 And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.

8 And he said, Ha’gar, Sa’rai’s maid, whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress.

The ingenious device of inserting the old and revised versions of the Bible in the same line must be seen to be appreciated, and the advantage of bringing before the reader the two versions can not be overestimated. This book also contains a most comprehensive and serviceable analytical and comparative concordance, including the salient, ready-working features of the larger concordances.

Words of Appreciation for “Linear” Parallel Teachers’ Bible.

“The Holman Company issues a Bible in which the self-pronouncing feature is retained, and in which, in addition, the Revised Version of the Bible is so ingeniously inserted that it can be read right along in the text as easily as can the old version. Any change at all from the old version, whether it be writing, spelling, typography, capitalization, idiom, parenthesis, punctuation, or otherwise, is clearly indicated, and is so plain and easy that any reader catches it, even as he reads. The book has also fifteen clear and beautiful colored maps. In the interest of Bible helpfulness, we must recommend that whenever any of our people need to buy a Bible, they buy this latest ‘Holman Parallel Linear’ Bible. “These Bibles are for sale at the Review and Herald Office.” —ALONZO T. JONES.

From “THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES,” Oakland, Cal.

“There have been brave attempts to unite the two versions and give to the student a parallel Bible. We have had both versions on opposite pages, we have had the various readings of the Revised Version in foot-notes, but the Linear Bible is the best arrangement, the very best by all odds, which has yet come to hand. As helps, it appoints one of the best small concordances, prepared expressly for this work, we have ever seen. It is a success as a text finder. “The fifteen maps and diagrams are very fine. It is a Bible which we can heartily recommend.” —“CHAGRIN FALLS, OHIO, Nov. 12, 1899. Review and Herald Publishing Co.

“GENTLEMEN: Just a moment of your valuable time to say that the copy of the ‘Holman Interlinear Bible’ came duly and safely to hand. I wish to thank you for calling my attention to this edition. It is just what I needed. It gives perfect satisfaction. “R. W. WALTERS, M. D.”
