By Thomas Hartwell Horne 185. The Book of the Prophet Isaiah, translated from the Hebrew, with Critical and Practical Remarks : to which is prefixed a Preliminary Dissertation on the Nature and Use of Prophecy. By the Rev. Alfred Jenour. London, 1831. 2 vols. 8vo. This is confessedly the best translation of Isaiah extant in the English language. The object of Mr. Jenour is to render his predictions more generally interesting than they ordinarily prove to the English reader. With this view he has endeavoured to combine the advantages of a critical and devotional commentary together with a new version and a metrical arrangement. His work is divided into sections, to each of which is prefixed a summary of its contents; then follow the version and explanatory notes, the practical remarks and the critical notes. Occasionally, the sections are divided into interlocutory parts. "What constitutes the most valuable part of the work, are the explanatory and practical remarks, with which each section is accompanied .... While the author throws light on numerous passages of this antient book, which relate to people and places that have long since vanished from the theatre of human affairs, he brings forward much important matter, calculated to rouse the conscience, and to purify, console, and strengthen the heart." (Congregational Magazine, June, 1831, vol. xiv. p. 355.) "We cordially recommend the work to all of our readers, who may wish to possess the inspired productions of the greatest of the antient prophets, excellently translated, and accompanied with a judicious and instructive commentary." (Eclectic Review, November, 1831, p. 421.) |

Vol IV page 49-50 The next work we have to introduce to the reader is a beautifully printed work on the Apocalypse, in two volumes 8vo., by the Rev. A. Jenour, entitled 'Rationale Apocalypticum.' This work is written with ability, and is valuable for the sketch at the end of the second volume of the various opinions of prophetical writers, from the time of Mede down to the present period. But, as an exposition of the Apocalypse, we regard it of very little value. The writer adopts the historical scheme of interpretation; but substitutes for the established interpretations of other commentators, in very many cases, what we cannot but designate crude and absurd notions of his own. In illustration of our meaning we would refer to his ridiculous idea, that the book sealed with seven seals is 'the book of the everlasting covenant;' his interpretation of the first four seals which is exceedingly absurd; and his remarks on the angel in the 10th chapter of the Apocalypse bestriding the earth and the sea-whom he considers to represent the Pope! Mr. Jenour's interpretation of the two witnesses as the Old and New Testaments, on the other hand, appears to us, as already observed, to suit the terms of the prophecy far better than the current view which makes them the Church of God. Tichonius, in the fourth century, adopted the same interpretation. The subject is of great importance at the present time, approaching as we probably are to the period of their death, and deserves the serious attention of all students of the prophetic word. |
