Synopsis

Excerpt from A Short Commentary on the Book of Daniel: For the Use of Students

Of Assyriology I possess no independent knowledge. My principal authority is Prof. Schrader's work The Cuneiform Inscriptions and the Old Testament, which I have used in the English translation (published by Williams and Norgate, 1885 since it contains the latest corrections by the author.

In my citations I have followed the paging of the German edition, which is given in the margin of the English text, so that possessors of either work will be able without difficulty to verify my references.
