Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Biblical Tables: An Epitome of Various Important Statistics of the Scriptures The object of the author has been to present the greatest amount of useful and interesting matter in the smallest compass. At the same time, it has been his design to present this matter in such a shape as shall make it not only accessible, but attractive, to those who have but little time to spend in hunting up information which, though really important to a proper understanding of the Scriptures, will be lost in part, or altogether, if much time is required in research. All the geographical, historical, and miscellaneous material comprised in this work, has been introduced, after many years of examinations and suggestions, from sources too numerous to be stated; but all is based upon, or modified by, the best and latest authorities. In the preparation of the money and coin table, the author was under obligation to Hon. James E. Snowden, formerly director of the United States Mint, at Philadelphia, and especially to William E. Dubois, Esq., assistant assayer, who furnished the assays, weights, and values of several coins, including those of the shekel which was obtained from Constantinople and is in the collection of the United States Mint. The author is indebted to Rev. Dr. Lyman Coleman for valuable suggestions, and to many others in Europe, whose measurements and observations have enabled him to obtain distances and positions to a great degree of accuracy; also to Dr. Jessup, of Syria, and to other missionaries, for information and charts whereby several important improvements have been made in the maps.
