Excerpt from A New and Complete Concordance to the Holy Scriptures on the Basis of Cruden These remarks on the Scriptures have been offered in the full persuasion that a higher estimate of their own value, will form the best recommendation of any reasonable aid which can be afforded to facilitate acquaintance with them. As to the subordinate means by which a knowledge of divine truth may be promoted, there can be no doubt that expo sitions of the Scriptures have induced many to search them whether these things be so. Still, it is undoubtedly best that Scripture be made its own interpreter; and this is most happily effected by the use of a concordance. It directs the inquirer to the words he is seeking - enables him to examine their connection, to find out and compare parallel pas sages - and all the while follow the guidance of inspired direction. The manifold impor tance of such a work has caused many of the kind to be published. Omitting mention of foreign concordances, I give some notice of those only which have been written in Eng lish. The following summary of them is collected mostly from Watt's Bibliotheca Britan nica. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
