Note

• "The aim of this work is not commentary nor fiction. It is, in the strictest form, truth. The Bible narrative is a skeleton. We wish, by the aid of collateral facts, to clothe the skeleton in its living flesh and blood ... we take whatever research and travel have made sure, with recent science and discovery, to fill up what is sketchy and clear up what is not plain."--preface, p. iii.
