Second Series. Parables Recorded by St. Luke.
_Sixth Thousand. Crown 8vo, cloth, price 3s. 6d._
"Dr. Dods is a model for all expositors. He is lucid, reverent, and suggestive. Though his style is usually somewhat austere, it frequently blossoms into rare beauty and tenderness."--_Sheffield Independent._
"He offers an original exposition, marked by strong common sense and practical exhortation. He not only makes the circumstances of the parable stand distinctly before the reader, introduces him into the circle that heard it, and shows distinctly how it affected the bystanders, but he also applies it skilfully to the conduct and practices, the views and feelings, of the men of our day, and drives its lesson home to their very hearts. This gives a great value to the work."--_Literary Churchman._
_Seventh Edition. Crown 8vo, price 2s. 6d._
"It is highly instructive, singularly lucid, and unmistakably for quiet personal use."--_Clergyman's Magazine._
"It is very rarely that so much solid exposition can be found compressed into so small a space. Soundly evangelical, the lectures are at the same time luminous, refined, and practical, abounding not only in fine glimpses of spiritual intuition, but also in keen analysis of human character, and its sources and motives of action."--_Freeman._
"A work so simple in style and in structure, breathing at every point the spirit of the Master, can hardly fail to find acceptance, and is eminently fitted to be at once edifying and elevating."--_Scotsman._

"The present volume is worthy of the writer's reputation. He deals with the problems of human life and character which these biographies suggest in a candid and manly fashion, and where he discovers a spiritual significance in them his course is always marked by sobriety and caution, yet he is not wanting in fervour and earnestness."--_Spectator._
"We commend this volume to our readers as a model of popular exposition.... For insight into the depths of the character portrayed, an insight which amounts to _intimacy_, we have not for many a day found any work superior to this."--_Baptist._
"Dr. Dods has the double qualifications for writing biography. He is at once a student of books and a student of life. For reality therefore, for freshness, for penetration, for insight into character, these chapters are incomparable, and for the purposes of 'Household Exposition' we can conceive of no healthier form of literature coming into our families."--_Christian._
