Review of Cox's Book on the Parables and the Son of Man
The critic argues that the day of judgment and the coming of the Son of Man in glory align with the Bridegroom and the Lord of the servants in earlier parables. Despite minor defects, the work is praised for scholarly notes, graceful style, and strong passages. An appended Lactimatin translation of the chapter and an essay on Corinth are noted.
