A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Gospel, with a special note on the disputed portion, at the close of the Gospel; (10) to introduce illustrations, not for ornament, but to bring in the aid of the eye in explaining and impressing Scriptural truth. The chronology indicated in the notes is that of Robinson, modified by A ndrews. The maps of Palestine are from the latest productions of Messrs. W. A. K. Johnston, Edinburgh. The chart of the journeys of our Lord is from Alford s New Testament for English Readers. Especial aid has been derived from the Cambridge Bible for Schools, by J. J. S. Perowne and G. F. Maclear; from the recent commentaries of Ellicott and Canon Cook, and from the works of Farrar, A ndrews, and Geikie, on the Life of Christ. A list of other leading authorities consulted is elsewhere given. The reader will find the careful comparison of the Revised text with that of the King James Version of great value. It will frequently show why no comment is made on phrases noted in commentaries confined to the Authorized Version, the Eevision having removed the obscurity from a large number of passages. The immense progress in Biblical knowledge in the past few years, and especially the issue of the Revised New Testament, imperatively demand new Commentaries in order that the student of God sword may be ready always to give answer to every man that asketh you a reason concerning the hope that is in you. 1P et. iii, 15, Revised Version. In the early Christian Church, the symbol of St. Mark was a man-headed lion. There is a legend that the body of this Evangelist was removed from Alexandria to Venice, in A.D. 827, and the lion of St. Mark was placed upon the standard of the Venetian Republic. The figure upon the cover of this volume will remind the student of this ancient symbol. Philadelphia, December, 1881. The blank pages after the maps, at the end, are inserted for notes hythe reader

Présentation de l'éditeur

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.
