To the Editor of the "Norra: Cuina Datty News."
Sir,—Much confusion thought about the Second Com ing of our Lord and the "Last Things" arises from unscientific exegesis, especially of the books of Daniel and Revelation. May I urge those who are interested to read the commentary on Daniel by the Vencrable R. H. Charles, p.p., now I believe Canon of St. Paul's, and that on Revelation by Professor C. Anderson Scott, D.p., now Professor of New Testament Language and Literature in Westminister College, Cambridge, and Moderator of the Presbyterian Church of England. Both commentaries are small but perfectly adequate for their purpose. They relate the books, which are not prophetic in character, to those of a similar class, the apocalyptic, in Jewish literature. They are published by T. C..and E. C. Jack in the Century Bible, at a prewar price of 2s, 6d. or 3s. 6d. a volume. Dr. Charles has also published' a monumental commentary on Revelation in the International Crifical Commentary.
I am, ete., T. W. Doverss James.
