The Book of the Prophet Ezekiel - Translated From the Original Hebrew; With a Commentary, Critical, Philological, and Exegetical #227188

IN preparing the following work for the press the author has been greatly encouraged by the kind reception given to his previous labors on the Prophets by theological readers both in this country and Amer ica. It has been a satisfaction to him to find that the principles on which he has conducted his exegetical inquiries have been generally approved of by those most competent to judge. To these principles he still adheres; convinced that whatever there abounds of symbol, vision, enigma, and parable in the compositions of Ezekiel, there runs through them a vein of historical reality which serves as a safeguard against the vagaries of the mystical school of interpretation.
