Sinopsis
Excerpt from Assyrian Life and History
The results of research in the Assyrian documents may be described as a new corrimentary on the Old Testament. To use this valuable aid to Biblical study aright, we must understand its language and style, and still more the thought that underlies the expression. In other words, we must not take out fragments here and there, and use them as notes in our Bibles, but we must examine the whole body of documents, and acquaint ourselves with their writers. We must learn something definite as to the Assyrian race, with its language, religion, art, and manners, and read its connected history. Thus, and thus only, can we use its writings with advantage.

To give this necessary information - not as yet attempted in English in a complete form - is the purpose of the present volume, which is the more intelligible, as being directly connected with the greatest Assyrian collection in the world, that of the British Museum. It is therefore at once a summary of Assyriology, and a description of the Assyrian galleries of the National Collection.
