Excerpt from The Great Prophecy of Israel's Restoration: Isaiah, Chapters 40-66; Arranged and Edited for Young Learners AT the very outset, the humbleness of what is professed in this little book cannot be set forth too strongly. With the aim of enabling English school-children to read as a connected whole the last twenty-seven chapters of' Isaiah, without being frequently stopped by passages of which the meaning is almost or quite unintelligible, I have sought to choose, among the better mean ings which have been offered for each of these passages, that which seemed the best, and to weave it into the authorised text in such a manner as not to produce any sense of strangeness or interruption. This is all that I have attempted not to translate or to correct independently, for which my knowledge of Hebrew, - not more than sufficient to enable me in some degree to follow and weigh the reasons offered by others in support of their judg ments, - and, indeed, my resources of all kinds, would be totally inadequate; but to use the work of more competent translators.
