Initially published in 1885, this collection of essays by members of the University of Oxford represents the finest of late nineteenth century scholarship. The set is long out-of-print and difficult to find even in libraries. Volume One focuses on biblical archaeology and criticism while the succeeding volumes are essays in biblical and patristic criticism.
