HELPS TO BIBLE STUDY.

By Editor

A RIDE THROUGH PALESTINE. By Rev. John W. Dulles, D. D. This work, illustrated by 184 beautifully clear maps and engravings, is one of the very latest and best books of travel in the Holy Land, and meets a want in that direction which no book of its price has before met. The S. S. Times says of it: “It is a book pleasant in style, healthy in tone, admirable in spirit, and careful and trustworthy in information. We do not know of any one volume of like size and cost which will give so much help to an ordinary teacher or scholar in its immediate scope and line.” 528 pp. $2.00

FROM EXILE TO OVERTHROW. By Rev. John W. Mears, D. D. A history of the Jews from the Babylonian captivity to the destruction of the second temple. Illustrated with maps and pictures. 475 pp. $1.25

THE GIANT CITIES OF BASHAN AND SYRIA’S HOLY PLACES. By Rev. J. L. Porter, A. M. This work brings out before the reader the departed glory of the ancient cities of Bible Lands, their present condition and aspect, and the tribes that inhabit them, in a very interesting and vivid portrayal. Its cheapness brings it within the reach of all, and its recommends it to teacher and scholar. 377 pp. $1.25

HAND-BOOK OF BIBLE GEOGRAPHY. By Rev. Geo. H. Whitney, D. D. Illustrated by 100 engravings and 40 maps and plans. The places of Bible Lands, with accompanying descriptions, are arranged in alphabetical order, in the form of a dictionary. The book is of great value as a work of ready reference. 495 pp. $2.50

BIBLICAL ATLAS AND GAZETTEER. Pages 11x8 1/2 inches in size. Contains 16 finely executed maps of Bible Lands, with 87 pages of descriptive matter, and a complete geographical Biblical Gazetteer. $1.50

THE TEMPLE AND ITS SERVICES. By Rev. Dr. Edersheim. The author’s aim in this work is to take the reader back eighteen hundred years, and present Jerusalem, with the temple and its services, as they were in the time of Christ, and thus give some of the circumstances under which the Saviour taught. 368 pp. $1.25

SKETCHES OF JEWISH SOCIAL LIFE. This book is by the same author as the one above, and has a kindred aim. The two books read together give a vivid picture of the religious and social life of the Jews in the days of Christ. 342 pp. $1.25
