Among the first books to approach the role of the Old Testament priesthood with a critical eye, Baudissin here presents a history of the institution. Dividing the biblical material according to the emerging documentary hypothesis, he first looks at the place of the priesthood in the various divisions of the Bible. A classic in the exploration of the official religious life in biblical Israel, this book classifies and examines separately the various forms that priesthood took in the ancient world. Long out of print and increasingly difficult to find, this study continues to be cited for its insights into the sacerdotal life of Israelite priests. |
|  | The Origin and Mutual Relation of the Synoptic Gospels by F. Woods
The vexing question called the Synoptic Problem has long interested New Testament scholars. Woods weighs in on this question providing evidence for Mark’s priority based on the use of language in the Gospels. |
|  | Tracing the Bridegroom in Dura by Gerasimos Pagoulatos
Pagoulatos explores the unknown sources of the eleventh-century Byzantine service of Christ the Bridegroom in the Dura-Europos Christian baptistry ritual (earliest known Iconophile service) dating the liturgical use of Christian images to the third century, not the seventh-century, A.D. |
|  | Foundations of Christian Music by Edward Foley
Taking a wider historical scope, this booklet examines the auditory environment and the temple of Herod as well as first century synagogues. Music in borrowed spaces and house churches of early Christianity conclude the study. |
|  | The Acts of Saint George and the Story of his Father by George Kiraz
One of the most enduring of the saints, Saint George has seldom failed to capture the imagination of Christian readers, both ancient and modern. The Acts of Saint George, originally written in Greek, quickly spread to many linguistic traditions in the church of late antiquity. Presented here in vocalized Syriac and Arabic, the original text of the Acts is made easily accessible to readers of these languages. A detailed introduction in English summarizes the hagiography for those unacquainted with the Semitic languages. The account follows the hagiographic practice of describing the trials, steadfast faith, and martyrdom of the saint. Also included is the story of the father of Saint George, recorded in Syriac. |

Fitzedward Hall was instrumental as an editor of the Oxford English Dictionary as well as a scholar of Sanskrit and Hindi whose long career made enormous contributions to the study of both Sanskrit and English grammar. This paper examines the construction “had rather” in English as it is used with verbs (Had rather go, etc.), which many grammarians found to be a puzzling grammatical anomaly. Hall connects it to parallel constructions in Anglo-Saxon and traces examples from as early as the 15th century. Many dated examples are provided from a great variety of sources and the argument is presented in engaging prose, making this an extremely user-friendly piece for the casual student of English grammar and a deeply erudite exploration for the specialist.
