Product Description 1880. The want of a general chronological view of the coinage of the ancients has long been felt by all who have devoted any study to this branch of archeology. It is this want which Mr. Head has here made a first attempt to supply. In the choice and classification of the coins described in the following pages, Mr. Head has throughout endeavored to keep simultaneously in view the historic, artistic, and strictly numismatic interest of the coins selected. Thus he found it possible to present the spectator a tolerably complete representative series of the gold and silver money current throughout the ancient world in approximate chronological order.

Product Description The relationships between the many different versions of Tobit present a famous and important problem for text-critics and historians of Judaism; however, study of the subject has been hindered by the lack of any single, reliable collection. This book brings together, for the first time, a wide range of texts (Greek, Latin, Hebrew, Aramaic, Syriac), some previously overlooked or virtually inaccessible, based in many cases on new readings. A single system of verse numeration is applied to all, and the key versions are presented synoptically, to facilitate comparison. Introductions and critical notes are provided for each text, along with succinct observations on the relationships between them in each passage, and concordances to assist stylistic and linguistic study.
