Excerpt from The Canon of the Old and New Testaments Ascertained: Or the Bible, Complete, Without the Apocrypha and Unwritten Traditions In this edition, the work has been carefully revised by the author, and many additions made to the testimonies adduced in the former editions; and also several important documents not contained in the former editions have been placed in the appendix. Some alterations have also been made in particular passages, but not of sufficient importance to require specification. In the London edition of this work by the Rev. Doctor Morison, some complaint was made of the want of references sufficiently distinct, to the authors from which the testimonies have been taken. In most cases, the works from which they have been derived are mentioned; and in a popular treatise of this kind, which has more the character of a compilation than of a work of original research, it is not deemed important to burden the margin with many notes of reference; which indeed are seldom used when most abundant.
