The following is a letter from R. L. Dabney to a seminary student. The context is that the War is over, the South is reduced to poverty, and Dabney is telling him what textbooks to try to borrow from pastors in his presbytery.
It is desirable that you should have the following: good lexicons, Latin, Greek, and Hebrew; Hebrew Grammar, Nordheimer's or Gesenius, if you can; Hebrew Bible and Greek Testament; Murdock's Mosheim's Church History; Kurtz' Manual (one volume, 12mo) Sacred History; Dick, Hill, Turretin, Theologies; Alexander's Moral Science; Chalmers' Natural Theology; as many of Calvin's and Addison Alexander's commentaries as you can; Hodge on Romans; Sampson on Hebrews; Horne's Introduction.
