We, the subscribers, having examined the Comprehensive Commentary, issued from the press of Messrs.

Che Companion to the Bible. In one super-royal volume.


DESIGNED TO ACCOMPANY


THE FAMILY BIBLE,


OR HENRY'S, SCOTT'S, CLARKE'S, GILL'S, OR OTHER COMMENTARIES:


CONTAINING


1. A new, full, and complete Concordance;


Illustrated with monumental, traditional, and oriental engravings, founded on Butterworth's, with Cruden's definitions ; forming, it is believed, on many accounts, a more valuable work than either Butterworth, Cruden, or any other similar book in the language.


The value of a Concordance is now generally understood; and those who have used one, con- sider it indispensable in connection with the Bible.


2. A Guide to the Reading and Study of the Bible ;


being Carpenter's valuable Biblical Companion, lately published in London, containing a complete history of the Bible, and forming a most excellent introduction to its study. It embraces the evi- dences of Christianity, Jewish antiquities, manners, customs, arts, natural history, &c., of the Bible, with notes and engravings added.


3. Complete Biographies of Henry, by Williams; Scott, by his son ; Doddridge, by Orton ;
