Recommendatory Notice By The Author Of The “Horae Apocalypticae.” Having been requested by the writer of this Abridgment of the Horae Apocalypticae to revise it preparatorily to the issuing of a Second Edition, I have done so. I can recommend it as faithful, correct, and well calculated, I think, to bring usefully before the minds of the young, for whom it was chiefly intended, those lessons in Church History, as well as in Prophecy, contained in the Horae Apocalypticae. The former — I mean the history of the Christian Church — is that which, nowadays more especially, must be considered an essential in education. Edward Bishop Elliott. 11 Lewes Crescent,  Brighton
