CRITICAL REMARKS ON THE MAP P? PALESTINE, 



To render the Holy Scriptures intelligible 

 and familiar to every class of leaders; to 

 attract the young and the old to a constant 

 and attentive study of them ; to open to 

 every one the treasures of divine knowledge, 

 which contain all tlie riches of salvation, is 

 an employment so important, and so benefi- 

 cial that every attempt to assist m the good 

 work is highly creditable and praiseworthy. 



In this light it is that a Map of Palestme, 

 illustrated by references to the most remark- 

 able events described in Sacred History, and 

 rendered interesting by the elegance and no- 

 velty of its embellishments, deserves to be 

 regarded amongst the most useful aids which 

 ingenuity has sujiplied to those who read 

 wi'th attention, and desire to retain tlie me. 

 niory of that which they have vead.— Gentle- 

 man's Magazine. 



The application of modern science to the 

 evidences of the important facts recorded in 

 the Scriptures, must afford satisfaction to 

 every friend of Christian truth. 



The work l)efore us is an elegant ^lap, 

 evidently the result of much skill and in- 

 dustry. 



Than graphical representation, nothing- 

 more strongly impresses upon the mind, more 

 especially upon the youthful mind, the events 

 of former days. With the sacred volume 

 open before him, and this map expanded be- 

 yond it, the historical and descriptive por- 

 tions of Scripture will be read by the student

The plan ^of this map displays much inge» 

 nuity on the part of the Artist. It would be 

 extremely difficult to give such an explana- 

 tion of it in writing, as to convey an adequate 

 idea of its utility and excellence ; it must, 

 therefore, be seen and examined by those 

 who would justly appreciate its real merits. 



We are glad to perceive that this map, 

 mounted on canvass and roller, is getting in- 

 troduced into the numerous conimittee-rooms 

 of tlie Benevolent Societies formed in the 

 metropolis, where it serves the different pur- 

 poses of use and ornament. It deserves a 

 place also in every vestry of church and cha- 

 pel throughout tlie kingdom, as well as in 

 every public and private library. Tlie style 

 of execution of the map is superior to every 



, thing of the kind, that we ever recollect to 

 liave seen ; and have no doubt it will amply 

 repay the publisher for the enormous expense 

 which must necessarily have been incurred.

This is an interesting Historical Map of 

 Palestine, exhibiting the geography of the 

 country, and especially the places mentioned 

 in Scripture, interspersed with ninety-si.^ 

 Vignettes, illustrative of the principal events 

 recorded in the Old and New Testaments, 

 and placed on the spot where they occurred. 



• These Vignettes will be found very amusing 

 to young persons, while they serve to impress 

 on the mind the leading points of sacred his- 

 tory and geography. — Christian Observer.
