Excerpt from Lectures on the Book of Job: Delivered in Westminster Abbey The following pages are intended to form a companion volume to the Lectures on Ecclesiastes published by the Clarendon Press two years ago. They contain two courses, each of Six Lectures, on the Book of Job, which were given in Westminster Abbey in the closing weeks of 1885 and in the February and March of the following year. As regards their general object and design, I may be allowed to repeat what was said in the prefatory notice to the former volume. I may once more disclaim any pre tension to have enlarged by independent researches of my own, whether linguistic or historical, the field of knowledge Open to the theological student, properly so called, of this portion of the Hebrew Scriptures. In preparing these Lectures for delivery, and in very carefully revising them for publication, I have steadily kept before me a humbler, yet, in some senses, not, I trust, a less useful aim. Nothing has impressed me more forcibly since I entered on the multifarious duties of my present post, than the large number of men and women, of men especially of all ranks and ages, who are ready on week-day afternoons to form a singularly attentive, interested, and interesting audience to any one who with adequate knowledge and power of ex pression will attempt to put before them the result of a careful study of any portion of the Old or the New Testament.
