Book A Commentary on the Gospel of St  Luke  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Commentary on the Gospel of St Luke Classic Reprint written by F. Godet and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Commentary on the Gospel of St. Luke The immediate occasion for the issue of a separate commentary on Luke's Gospel is found in the fact that from it are taken the Sabbath-school lessons of the International uniform series for the former half of the year on which we are so soon to enter. When it is remembered how many millions of pupils receive instruction according to this widely-accepted arrangement, it will not seem unimportant that hundreds of thousands of teachers - many of them busily engaged in ordinary life - should have all possible aid in the work of preparing themselves a teach. Who does not crave a blessing on them in their self-denying work? Let us ask that He whose word they employ as the educating spiritual power, will make this work one of the forms in which the blessing will come to them. But it is not only such Christian laborers who are now interested in securing aid to a full Understanding of Luke's Gospel. It is a matter for true rejoicing that, as the school of the Sabbath is in closest connection with the Church, and doing a part of the Church's work, ministers labor in so many forms to increase the power of their fellow-toilers by printed and oral exposition of the lessons, and in many instances by systematic treatment of the coming Sabbath-school lesson at the week-day service. This is done in many cases where ministers are far removed from libraries and from the stimulus of literary fellowship, and where also the means at their disposal make it difficult for them to procure expensive theological or exegetical works. To bring such within their easier reach is not unworthy of effort: their power for good as religious educators is thus increased in this and in every other department of their difficult but beneficent labors. At first sight it might seem as if the commentary of M. Godet were too voluminous, and too comprehensive in its plan to be of use to Sabbath-school teachers. But there are considerations to be taken into account on the other side, (a) No one unacquainted practically with this great agency of our time has any idea of the immense advance in biblical knowledge made during the past decade, in which uniform of topic enabled publishing houses and societies to provide the best help for teachers. (b) To keep a high standard of attainment and effort before this great body of laborers is desirable in itself. That all do not reach the ideal qualification is no reason for withdrawing the means toward it which a certain proportion can and will employ.(c) The ideas of Paulus, Strauss, Renan and other authors of similar tendency are being diffused, and are presented with more or less show of learning, and especiality of "culture" and "enlightenment," by many who do not have them from the originals, and to many who never come in contact with the works as a whole, but only in the unqualified eulogies which accompany their names when they are teny used against evangelical interpretation. It is desirable in the highest degree that intelligent Christians who are teachers of others should know of an "antidote" to the "bane" of what Godet concisely calls "criticism" throughout his work. This consideration will reconcile any intelligent reader who has learned to identify himself with the cause of the truth to many portions of this commentary devoted to the exposure of the shallow, arbitrary, inconflistent, and arrogant way in which Rationalism deals with Scripture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Commentary on the Gospel of St. Luke, Vol. 1 A Year and half has passed away - and how swiftly! - since the publication of this Commentary, and already a second edition has become necessary. I bless the Lord for the acceptance which this work has met with in the churches of Switzerland and of France, and I hail it as a symptom of that revived interest in exegetical studies, which has always appeared to me one of their most urgent needs. I tender my special thanks to the authors of those favourable reviews which have given effectual aid towards the attainment of this result. Almost every page of this second edition bears the traces of corrections in the form of my former work; but the substance of its exegesis and criticism remains the same. Of only one passage, or rather of only one term (second-first, vi. 1), has the interpretation been modified. Besides that, I have made a number of additions occasioned by the publication of two works, one of which I have very frequently quoted, and the other as often controverted. I refer to M. Gess' book, Sur la Personne et l' uvre de Christ (first part), and to La Vie de Jesus by M. Keim (the last two volumes). In a recent article of the Protestantische Kirchenzeitung, M. Holtzmann has challenged my critical standpoint as being determined by a dogmatic prepossession. But has he forgotten the advantage which Strauss took in his first Vie de Jesus of the hypothesis of Gieseler, which I have defended?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theological and Homiletical Commentary on the Gospel of St. Luke, Vol. 1: Specially Designed and Adapted for the Use of Ministers and Students The Catholic Church dedicates the 18th Of October to St Luke, assuming, on insufficient ground, that this was the day of his death. The Evangelical Church is willing to leave untouched the curtain which has fallen upon the cradle and grave of Luke, in order to contemplate, with more undivided attention, the precious legacy of his writings, the earliest and most important of which, we are now about to consider more closely.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Commentary on the Gospel of St. Luke: With Examination Questions, Accompanied by References to the d104 at the Foot of Each Page, and Adapted to University Examinations, and the Use of Divinity Students in General (1) Among the questions connected with the literary history of the Canonical Gospels, there is none perhaps, which possesses greater interest than that which relates to the order in which they were written, and the source or sources from which their writers severally derived the materials from which they were composed. With respect to that of St John indeed, it is very generally admitted to have been the last in order of time, to have been in some sort designed as a supplementary treatise to those which preceded it, and undertaken with the especial view of supplying certain important acts and discourses of our Lord, almost entirely omitted by the other Evangelists, which bore upon the heretical opinions then beginning to call in question either his humanity or his divinity. The relation however, which subsists between the three synoptical or harmonious Gospels, has been the subject of considerable discussion.

Download or read book An Exposition of the Gospel of St Luke written by John Macevilly and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Exposition of the Gospel of St. Luke: Consisting of an Analysis of Each Chapter and of a Commentary About three years ago, I undertook the publication of a Commentary, in one volume, of the Gospels of St. Matthew and St. Mark, a work which has been received with unexpected favour, as the Second Edition is now nearly exhausted. A second volume containing a Commentary on the Gospels of St. Luke and St. John, together with the Acts of the Apostles, was promised at the time. Those who may have been expecting its appearance, will hardly be surprised that its issue has been so long deferred, if they take into account the arduous and numerous duties of my office, which I could neither neglect nor overlook, and the vast amount of time and labour required for Scriptural researches, particularly with a view to publication. I am now partly redeeming my promise by giving to the public, as a companion volume to the Commentary on the two other Synoptical Gospels of St. Matthew and St. Mark, an Exposition of the Gospel of St. Luke, which may, if so desired, be conveniently bound with the former. Neither time nor pains has been spared in its composition, according to my humble ability. How far I may have succeeded in my design to produce a useful work, I must leave to others to determine. I purpose publishing, at a future day, should Providence so will it, my notes on the Gospel of St. John and on the Acts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commentary on the Gospel of Luke The'present incorrigibleness of the Jews, as a body, has now become hopelessly manifest; but he is, if possible, still more abundant and earnest in endeavors to save some. He takes care for an increase of laborers in the field from which he is about to be removed, and rejoices that through the ministry of such, the reign of Satan over men is in effect broken. He teaches his servants much about the work before them, the dangers and pains to which they are appointed; but assures them of ever present, effectual help from on high, of a success that shall fill the world, and of a glorious recognition by himself when he shall return (as he will) in royal majesty, for the full and eternal blessedness of his kingdom, and the separation from it of those who would not have this man to reign over them.

Book A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Gospel According to S  Luke  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Gospel According to S Luke Classic Reprint written by Alfred Plummer and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Gospel According to S. Luke This volume has no such ambitious aim as that of being a final commentary on the Gospel according to S. Luke. The day is probably still far distant when any such commentary can be written. One of the difficulties with which the present commentator has had to contend is the impossibility of keeping abreast of all that is constantly appearing respecting the Synoptic Gospels as a whole and this or that detail in them. And the Third Gospel abounds in details which have elicited special treatment at the hands of a variety of scholars. Every quarter, indeed almost every month, brings its list of new books, some of which the writer wishes that he could have seen before his own words were printed. But to wait is but to prolong, if not to increase, one's difficulties: it is waiting dum defluat amnis. Notes written and rewritten three or four times must be fixed in some form at last, if they are ever to be published. And these notes are now offered to those who care to use them, not as the last word on any one subject, but simply as one more stage in the long process of eliciting from the inexhaustible storehouse of the Gospel narrative some of those things which it is intended to convey to us. They will have done their work if they help someone who is far better equipped entirely to supersede them. The writer of this volume is well aware of some of its shortcomings. There are omissions which have been knowingly tolerated for one or other of two adequate reasons. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
