Excerpt from The Book of the Prophet Jeremiah: With Introduction and Notes The scope of the series in which this Commentary appears does not permit of any large dealing with the Hebrew text of Jeremiah; hence many points of interest to Hebrew scholars have had to be passed by almost unnoticed. For a similar reason the question of J eremiah's use of metre, a highly controversial and technical subject, has received but slight treatment. In the present volume no general review of the origin and development of Hebrew prophecy has been attempted, the subject having already received admirable treatment in the series, and the reader who desires more detailed information on the subject cannot do better than consult Dr Wade's note Hebrew Prophecy and its Credentials in his Commentary on Isaiah, pp. Viii - xvii. In conclusion I wish to express my deep gratitude to the General Editor, Dr Lock. Dr Lock has been most patient and kind in reading through both the MS and proofs of the Com mentary, and to his wise advice and varied learning I have frequently been indebted. Canon R. H. Kennett, the Regius Professor of Hebrew in Cambridge University, very kindly read through the MS of the Introduction and made valuable sugges tions in regard to it for which I am very grateful, as I am for the care and affection which he lavished upon me - as upon his other pupils - during the years that I studied under his guidance.
