Synopsis

Hints for an Improved Translation of the New Testament is a book written by James Scholefield, an English clergyman and scholar, and published in the 19th century. The book provides suggestions and insights for improving the translation of the New Testament from its original Greek text into English. Scholefield argues that many existing translations are flawed and fail to capture the nuances and subtleties of the original text. He offers a number of specific recommendations for improving the translation, including a more careful consideration of the context and literary style of the original text, as well as a greater attention to the meanings of specific words and phrases. The book is intended for scholars and students of theology and biblical studies, as well as anyone interested in the history and interpretation of the New Testament.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Bibles is needlessly to unsettle mens minds, and shake their confidence in a book which is familiarised with their daily occupations and habits of thinking, and towards which therefore it is desirable that they should entertain no other feelings than those of a reposing conviction of its practical perfection. I do not under-rate this objection. But my answer to it is, that in proportion to the importance of having the sacred text settled is the importance also of having it settled on a true and safe foundation. And there may probably be readers among the ordinary ranks of those who go every day to draw water out of these wells of salvation, who may sometimes encounter a degree of perplexity in weighing and comparing together some of the more difficult passages as they stand in our translation.
