The Journal of Sacred Literature and Biblical Record was undertaken with the design of supplying a want, which had long been felt, of a periodical devoted to Biblical literature, and established on so wide a basis as to embrace the contributions of writers of different denominations and of different countries. The aim of these publications are to furnish the students and readers of Biblical literature with an organ for the discussion of all subjects in which they are interested. Sample contents: Reading the Cursings and Blessings to the Israelites; Samaritan Pentateuch; Buddhist Scriptures and Their Language; Importance of Linguistic Preparation for Missionaries in General; Introduction to the Rabbinic Bible; Ethiopic Liturgies and Hymns; and much more.
