Page 311.-Whether in regard, &c. i de tūv Yaluñv βιβλος, το έκ πάντων ωφέλιμον περιείληφε. προφητεύει τα μέλ. λόντα, ιστοριας υπομιμνήσκει, νομοθετεί τώ βίω, υποτίθεται τα πρακτέα και άπαξαπλώς κοινον ταμιεϊόν έστιν αγαθών διδαγμάτων, το εκάστο πρόσφορον κατά την επιμέλειαν εξευρίσκουσα. -Basil. Hom. in Ps. I. Page 312.-A late most learned commentator, &c. Dr. Adam Clarke. Page 313.—Consecrated to the public service, &c. There is reason to believe that, from a very early period, the Psalms of David were employed in public worship by the Jews. The Hallel, or Passover Hymn, which our blessed Lord is said to have sung with his disciples, consisted of the Psalms from cxiii. to cxviii. inclusive; and they have been constantly used in the worship of the Christian Church. Page 314.—Bishop Horseley. Horseley's Psalms. i. xiv. In that drama, &c. Vide Horseley's Psalms, P. xv. Page 316.- None of the sacred, &c. Matt. xxii. 55. an Pp. loc.; Acts ii. 56. 1 Cor. xv. 25. Heb. i. v. vii. &c. The observations which occur in the note, page 152–157, to the present learned Bishop of Chester's “ Dissertation on the Traditional Knowledge of a Promised Redeemer,” are so satisfactory, that I shall satisfy myself with referring to them. They prove the general concurrence of our Lord's contemporaries as to the interpretation of the Psalm; the straits to which the modern Jews are reduced by their application of: and the false reasoning as well as loose religion which hacz upon the modern school of German divinity, in attempting explain it otherwise than of Christ, and, if of Christ , es prophecy. I shall only add, in proof the same opisibeing held by the early Christian Church, a few authonte from the early Fathers : Clement in Epist. ad Cor.) applies it to Christ; Barnabas, in chap. xii. interpec: it similarly ; Justin Martyr, in Dial. cum. Tryph. Tertull. advers. Mar.refute the Jews, who applied it to He:| kiah; Lactantius Jns. Div. iv. 12. not only follows their fri steps, but seems to point its reference to the ascension Christ ; Origin, Eusebius, and Chrysostom, are of the sia opinion, as to its direct application to the Redeemer. I. the beginning of the last century, a controversy of sc consequence was excited among the German Protestar by Masson's applying the Psalm to David; he was futed by Martin, Lampe, and others. Since that is many German Divines, following the footsteps of Mendekodi have attempted to apply it to David and others. liget supposes it to be a congratulatory ode on the taking of Rable Eckman supposes that it was written and addressed t David after the translation of the ark, and that the allegoris and typical meaning was never thought of until after the B bylonish captivity. Herder entirely applies it to Dari Pfeiffer understands the first and second verses of the Pit listines, and the last of the Israelites' passage of the Jordas Borkh interprets it of Solomon; and De Wette going farther, characterises the application of this Psalm to the Me siah, as absurd and impious, and supposes it to be an ode al dressed to some Asmonæan Prince, probably to John His canus, who he thinks was in a peculiar sense a royal priest Vide Bergman Comment. in Psal. cx. 12—20. Such interpretations disfiguring such learning as these critics general possess, read an awful lesson to the students in theology.

Ex mea opinione de Domino illo, tanquam Davidis ejusque regni paterno, et viam ad regnum suum coeleste parante agitur, vers. 5-7.” Venema, iv. 767. “ Dominus hic occurrit hostes sibi subjiciens, cum in priori pericopa ad dextram Dei sedeat, et Deus hostes ipse subjecturus dicatur. —Nec nullius est, phrases in hostiles et bellicas expeditiones rectius convenire quæ ad V.T. magis quam N.
