This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Edward Cushing Mitchell was the grandson of Nahum Mitchell, was descended from Experience Mitchell, one of the Pilgrim passengers on the ship Anne in 1623. His father, Silvanus Lazell Mitchell, a graduate of Harvard, married Lucia Whitman, and in the Old Colony village of East Bridgewater, Massachusetts, Edward C. Mitchell was born.
At the age of sixteen, Mitchell matriculated at Waterville College in Maine, where he was graduated in the class of 1849. After college, he went to the Newton Theological Institution, where he followed the three years' course, graduating in 1853, and remained a year for post-graduate study.
Mitchell was ordained at Calais, Maine, in 1854, and became minister of the Baptist church at that place, serving for two years. He then served brief pastorates at Brockport, New York, 1857-58, and Rockford, Illinois, 1858-63. For years, he had been a diligent student of the Bible, and in 1863 he was invited to become professor of Biblical literature in Shurtleff College, Alton, Illinois, where he remained until 1870. He then held the chair of Hebrew and Old Testament literature in the Baptist Union Theological Seminary, Chicago, from 1870 to 1877. While on leave of absence in Europe, 1876-77, he acted as professor of Hebrew in Regent's Park College, London, a Baptist institution, temporarily filling a vacancy created by the death of one of the faculty. He then crossed the Channel to Paris, where he was president of the Baptist Theological Seminary, 1878-82. Returning to Chicago, he was editor of the Present Age, 1883-84, then, in 1884-85, president of Roger Williams University, an institution for negroes, at Nashville, Tennessee. In 1884, soon after his return from Europe, Mitchell gave a series of lectures on the Lowell Institute platform in Boston on "Biblical Science and Modern Discovery. " During the same period, he delivered lecture courses in Worcester and Brooklyn and at the School of Hebrew at Morgan Park, Illinois. He had previously published the results of his diligent study in a Critical Handbook of the New Testament, and while in Paris had issued a French edition of this work under the title Les Sources du Nouveau Testament (1882).
In 1886-87, Mitchell supplied the pulpit of a Baptist church at Neponset, Massachusetts, and in 1887 he found in New Orleans the work to which he gave the rest of his life the presidency of Leland University, another school for the higher education of negroes. During his thirteen years in this position he enhanced the reputation of the institution in the South, made friends for the college and for himself, and exerted a remarkable influence over the colored people in Louisiana. He also revised Benjamin Davies' Compendious and Complete Hebrew and Chaldee Lexicon to the Old Testament (1879), edited Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar (1880), and wrote An Elementary Hebrew Grammar and Reading Book (1884).

Mitchell's family had joined in the Unitarian secession from the old Puritanism, and were disappointed that he should enter the Baptist ministry, but his own conviction of duty was not moved.
At Waterville College, Mitchell made lasting friendships which influenced his character; and during the same period a deepening religious feeling decided him to enter the ministry. He had qualities suited to that profession. He possessed the dignity and courtly presence of a gentleman of the old school, yet was approachable and friendly.
Mitchell was married twice. By his first wife, Maria (Morton) Mitchell, he had two sons and a daughter. His second wife, Marcia (Savage) Mitchell, was "Lady Principal" of Leland University while he was president.
