The Great Symbols, by W. J. Townsend, d.d. (London : Charles H.
Kelly, 2, Castle Street, City Road, and 26, Paternoster Row, E.C., 1901.)
This volume contains a valuable introduction on the meaning of the scrip
tural and ecclesiastical term “ Symbol,” and on the “Sanctuary,” “the Ark
of God,” “the Cherubim,” the “Sacrifice for Sin,” “ the High Priest and
his Vestments,” “ the Seven-branched Lamp Stand,” “ the Altar of Incense,”
“ the Table of Shewbread,” “the Laver,” “the Abolition of Symbolism,”
“the Veil before the Holiest.” All these served their purpose, but all
passed away by the death and resurrection of Christ.
