Excerpt from A Commentary on the Holy Scriptures, Vol. 3: Critical, Doctrinal, and Homiletical
The Commentary on Numbers was prepared by Dr. Lange, and appeared, toge ther with Exodus and Leviticus, in 1874. The translation, after many delays beyond my control, was finally entrusted to the Rev. Dr. Lowrie and the Rev. Dr. Gosman. The Rev. Dr. Lowrie is responsible for the Introduction (original), and for chaps. I. - xx. 13 and chap. Xxxiii. His additions are, as usual, included in brackets, and marked tr. They bear chiefly on the geography and topography of the regions tra versed by the Israelites from Mt. Sinai to Mt. Hor and the plains of Moab, with re ference to the most recent explorations of the Sinaitic Peninsula. The Rev. Dr. Gosman prepared the remaining chapters of Numbers, and his additions are marked by his initials.
