Book An Introduction to the Study of the Gospels  Classic Reprint

Download or read book An Introduction to the Study of the Gospels Classic Reprint written by Brooke Foss Westcott and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of the Gospels In issuing the new edition of this Essay, I can only repeat what I said nearly six years ago. The book remains with all its shortcomings such as it was when first written. Once again some mistakes which I had detected myself, and others which friends pointed out to me, have been corrected: a few additions have been made; a few phrases have been modified; but this is all that has been done in revision, nor did I purpose to do more. If the Essay has any value, it lies chiefly, 1 believe, in the encouragement which it offers to students who desire to examine the records of our Faith with patient and devout trust in the Spirit of Truth. They will know, scarcely less well than I do, where the fulfilment of my plan falls short of the design; but they will know also the certainty of the assurance, which each days work makes stronger, that Holy Scripture opens treasures new and old to men and to Churches, now as in former times, when the scribe becomes a disciple of the kingdom of God.

Book The Gospels and the Gospel  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Gospels and the Gospel Classic Reprint written by G. R. S. Mead and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gospels and the Gospel Such readers required no general introduction to the subject to ensure a patient consideration of the immensely important problems of Gospel criticism laid before them; and even now, when these papers go forth in book-form to a wider public, the majority of my readers will still be of those who take an intelligent interest in the subject, and who will approach it without pre j udice. They have the courage to think for them selves, and are, therefore, not to be deterred from reading a book because it bears the name of a Society whose intentions and labours have, for the past quarter of a century, been for the most part as greatly misunderstood as the work of all pioneers the world over in every advance towards a better understanding of the nature of things.

Book Introduction to the New Testament

Download or read book Introduction to the New Testament written by Frédéric Godet and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to the New Testament: The Collection of the Four Gospels and the Gospel of St. Matthew The first and strictly preliminary chapter of this second volume will not deal with the composition of our gospels. I shall confine myself to inquire how and when the group, hitherto closed and inseparable, of these four writings was formed, Which we shall have thereafter to study separately. In the first volume of this work I had not to strike out a new path, for studies pursued during a long series of years had led me to convictions very much in accordance with the views generally admitted on the composition, the date, and the chronological order of the thirteen epistles Of St. Paul which I regard as authentic.

Book General Introduction to the Study of the Holy Scriptures  Classic Reprint

Download or read book General Introduction to the Study of the Holy Scriptures Classic Reprint written by Francis E. Gigot and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Introduction to the Study of the Holy Scriptures The present volume is not an altogether new work. As stated in the title-page, it is an abridged edition of the larger volume on General Introduction which the present writer published a few years ago. Although this larger work was well received by the public, as proved by. The fact that its third edition is nearly exhausted, professors of Holy Scripture often expressed the wish that a shorter form of it could be issued. An abridged edition, it was argued, would enable students to cover more easily the ground of General Introduction within the short space of time at their disposal, while the unabridged work would prove to them a valuable book of reference, and continue to be useful to priests on the mission and to readers generally. It was also supposed that in its shorter form the General Introduction would be wel come as a text-book in colleges and other institutions where the larger work had but little chance to be adopted. It is for these and similar reasons that the present edition has been prepared. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book An Introduction to the Study of the New Testament  Vol  1 of 2

Download or read book An Introduction to the Study of the New Testament Vol 1 of 2 written by Samuel Davidson and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of the New Testament, Vol. 1 of 2: Critical, Exegetical, and Theological Since the first edition appeared, the chief work on Introduction to the New Testament has been Hilgenfeld's 'Einleitung, ' the outcome of many books and essays published by that indefatigable scholar. His 'Zeit-schrift' also presents valuable critical investigations by the editor himself, Professor Holtzmann, and others, all tending to illustrate the Christian Scriptures. Mangold supplies useful additions to Bleek's ' Introduction.' Professor Reuss's recent publications on the New Testament are somewhat disappointing, savouring as they do of the Vermittelungs-Theologie, and influenced to some extent by a reactionary spirit towards the Tubingen school. Though this school as represented by Baur and Schwegler has carried its speculations too far, the important advance it has made in the criticism of the New Testament cannot be reversed. Modified it may be; but its mark upon early Christian literature is deep and permanent. In correcting its excesses moderation must be carefully preserved, for examples of backwardism are usually weak. A few faults of the 'Tendenz-Kritik' leave its basis secure.

Book Documents for the Study of the Gospels

Download or read book Documents for the Study of the Gospels written by David R. Cartlidge and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of freshly translated texts leads to a new appreciation of the richness and variety of the religious world within which Christianity emerged as a powerful new force. Bringing together for the first time under a single cover documents from Jewish, Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Syrian, and little-known early Christian sources, the material is arranged to bring out as clearly as possible the ways in which early Christian worship of Jesus Christ as Savior and God both echoed contemporary worship of other savior gods and at the same time stood in sharp contrast to such worship. This revised and enlarged edition contains a new introduction on texts and traditions in late antiquity, a reworked translation of The Gospel of Peter, selections from Ovid's Metamorphoses, plus such documents as Papyrus Egerton 2, Oxyrhynchus Papyrus 840, and The Apocryphon of James. In addition, the table of contents has been expanded to allow easier access to the documents contained herein.

For while there must be deep things everywhere in Scripture, things past man's finding out, else it were no revelation, surely it is nothing surprising that the Son of God, who moved in all worlds as in regions familiar to Him, who was not the illuminated, but the Illuminator.

Book A Short Introduction to the Gospels  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Short Introduction to the Gospels Classic Reprint written by Ernest de Witt Burton and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short Introduction to the Gospels The chief purpose of this little volume is to place before the student of the gospels those facts concerning the purpose and point of view of each of them which are most necessary for an intelligent reading and study of them. A book of narrative character, containing a record of facts, has a value independent of the point of view and purpose of the author. Yet few books are so wholly objective in character, so devoted to the simple reporting of facts, so devoid of all aim to use these facts to achieve a result, that an insight into the mind of the writer does not contribute to an intelligent reading of them. To us today the highest value of the gospels is in the testimony they bring us concerning the deeds, words, and character of the Lord Jesus. Yet it is by no means idle curiosity that impels us to discover all that we can concerning the specific aim with which the several evangelists wrote. Not only is the discovery of the situation out of which each gospel arose, and of the end which the writer of each sought to accomplish, a contribution to the inner history of the early church, precisely as a knowledge of similar facts concerning an epistle of Paul constitutes such a contribution, but the discovery of the angle of vision from which, and the medium through which, the writer looked at Jesus, assists us to interpret each of the several representations of Jesus, and so to relate these one to another that from them all there may emerge the true historic figure of Jesus the Christ.
