Hereby, as well as by the introduction of other matte: contributed by Dr Dalman and Herr Laible, and incorporated by me with the body of the essay, or appended in the form of foot-notes, the value of this edition of the work is much enhanced.

It has been my aim throughout to render the German as closely as regard for English idiom would permit. At the same time I have ventured to deviate from this rule (a) in dealing with the earlier pages of the essay, which appeared to me to be capable With advantage of some con densation for the English reader, and (b) very occasionally, in modifying expressions used by the Talmud in reference to our Blessed Lord. It may perhaps be considered that I have not gone quite far enough in this latter respect.
