Objections derived from Geology, etc. against the truth of the Mosaic history of the deluge considered 10.- viz. It is thought that certain natural processes now going on must have had an earlier date than the Noachian deluge 10. It was formerly urged that it is mathematically impossible for the present oceans of the globe to be raised so high as to cover its whole surface 11. Some parts of the globe are said to exhibit no marks of diluvial agency 12. The existence and preservation of the olive on mount Ararat have been urged as objections 13. Change of climate at the epoch of the geological deluge, etc. 13. Another objection is, that pairs of all the animals on the globe could not have been preserved in the ark 14. The present distribution of animals on the globe, etc. 16. Many species, both of animals and plants, are capable of enduring great varieties of climate 16. But the greater part of animals and plants are

confined to particular districts of
the globe 17. The deluge may not
have been universal 19. A new
creation of animals and plants may
have taken place subsequent to the
deluge 19. Such a bypothesis
probable 21. Could any natural
causes have produced the deluge?

I. Impostures, Literary 39. What are we to understand by the expression, literary impostures ? 39. Three classes, the first of which are plagiarists 41. There have been men of considerable reputation who could unblushingly advocate this species of robbery 42. Examples of its practice among the ancients 43. Modern examples: Barbora,

Bishop of Ugento, Richard Cumberland, Dr. Middleton, etc. 44. Rank and wealth have obtained unmerited eminence in the literary world at the expense of gifted dependents 45.

Justification, Faith and the active obedience of Christ, Views of the early Reformers on, - Introduction 448. Bearing of these views upon the agitating controversies of the times 449. Importance of the subject 451. Views on justification 453. The term, justification, not of recent coinage 453. The terms, pardon, forgiveness, and justification employed as synonymes 454. Views of Augustine 454. Of Oecumenius, Bernard and of John Calvin 455. Of Ursinus 459. Of Paraeus 463. Imputation of the righteousness of Christ and remission of sins customarily joined in justification 465. Melancthon says

that justification signifies forgive ness of sins 466. The French and Augsburg Confessions unite substantially in the same sentiment 467. Also the Saxony and Belgic catechisms 468. Wendeline remarks that they express the whole nature of justification who affirm that it consists in the forgiveness of sins 469. Dr. Tilenus says that either forgiveness or imputation taken separately expresses the whole nature of justification 470. Similar statement of Piscator 472. The Calvinistic church, at the first, almost entirely took the ground that pardon was the whole of justification 473. The Calvinists gradually began to make a distinction 474. Opinions of Dr. Amandus Polanus 474. Dr. F. Gomar 476. He explains forgiveness of sins as the prior member of justification 477. A modern definition of pardon the same which the later Reformers gave of justification 478. Recent instances of departure from primitive Calvinism 479, such as that Adam was not created righteous 479. The same the opinion of Dr. Taylor of Norwich 480. Osiander condemned for maintaining this opinion 481.

K.

Knowledge, Biblical, the advancement of 60. What does a thorough knowledge of Scripture involve? A thorough acquaintance with the original languages of Scripture ;an acquaintance with the geography and antiquities of ancient Palestine, etc. 61. An enlarged acquaintance with ancient history 62. With the internal history of the ancient world, its moral, religious and political condition 63. With the laws of human language 64. The constitution of man considered as an intellectual and moral being 65. A right state of heart 65. How may a thorough knowledge of the Scriptures be most effectually diffused? We must have some men in the church who shall press every department of bib

lical and theological learning to its utmost limits, 66. The great body of the christian ministry must receive such an education as shall enable them to avail themselves of the results of the investigations of others 69. The original languages of Scripture, the Latin language 70. Theological Seminaries, 71., etc.

Biesenthal's Dictionary exhibits great accuracy, a familiarity with biblical and rabbinical literature, and an inquiring and philosophical turn of mind in the author 490. Roy's Dictionary undertaken on no settled principles, extremely careless in its execution, and betrays an almost total ignorance of the first principles of Hebrew grammar 490. Merits of Biesenthal's work proved by examples 491. Connection between 3 and 492. Singular error of Roy 492. Definition of by the two writers 493. Reaniting of Mistakes of Roy on these words and 497.
