Excerpt from The Psalms, Vol. 1: In Three Collections, Translated With Notes, First Collection (Pss. I-XLI)The notes require careful study, but, if I may speak from my own experience, they will repay it. They are not designed to save the reader from the trouble of thought, but to stimulate him to independent re¿ection and enquiries which lie within his reach. They constantly remind me of Bengel's pregnant sentences - and I know no higher praise - which point to a conclusion rather than develop it. The scholar indeed if he is to profit by his teacher's words must share his teacher's labour. The memorable saying in which Heraclitus sums up the method of the Delphian king describes the ideal method of the true master: He neither tells nor hides but gives a sign.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
