This book was released on 2017-10-14 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the History and Recent Collation: Of the English Version of the Bible In respect to the accessories of the text, comprehending the contents of the chapters, the running heads of the columns, the marginal readings and references, and the chronology, the Bibles of the present day are much less conformed to the original edition. The translators, as we have seen, were to append no marginal notes at all, but only for the explanation of the Hebrew or Greek words; and also fit references Of one Scripture to another. To this requirement the early editions were entirely conformed; and the marginal references were very few. In the lapse of time, however, extensive changes and additions have been made in most of the above particulars. The contents of the chapters only have been preserved in the editions of larger size, without very great variation while in copies of a smaller form, these likewise have been frequently and variously altered and abbreviated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book About the English Bible Tms volume is simply what its title indicates, A Book about the English Bible. It has grown out of a series of lectures delivered to students in the University of Pennsylvania, the purpose of which was to give a brief account of the English Bible, its immediate sources and their contents, their literary background and surroundings, the forms and characteristics of the constituent books and their relation to each other. To the chapters, in which these subjects are suggested, rather than discussed, have been added several others containing a short history of the translation of the Bible into English, from Saxon times to our own day. Attention is called to the differences between the commonly used English versions as regards contents and translation, and to the reasons for the differences.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Bible: History of the Translation of the Holy Scriptures Into the English Tongue, With Specimens of the Old English Versions From these remarks it will be seen, that a critical description of editions and copies does not come within the design of this volume. Such a work, I am happy to know, may be expected from a gentleman, whose intimate ac quaintance with the subject warrants the belief that it will be one of great interest and valuecome the means of communicating to other minds a more lively and more intelligent interest in the sub jcet of which it treats. No other Christian people can show a vernacular Bible with such a history as ours so consecrated byhigh purpose and noble sacrifice, so baptized in the tears and blood of faithful souls, so linked with the inmost life and history of the people. At what cost the Divine Word has been placed in the possession of the English race, and what it has done for that race, are matters which every Christian and every lover of his country has an interest in knowing. Without such knowledge, we can neither rightly estimate its value, nor labor intelligently for the perpetuation of its in uence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Versions of the Bible: A Hand-Book; With Copious Examples Illustrating the Ancestry and Relationship of the Several Versions, and Comparative Tables Next in importance to the conservation of a pure text of the Original Scriptures is confessedly their faithful translation into the living speech of man. An account therefore of the common English Ver sion, from its first rude beginnings in anglo-saxon times, through all the changes it has undergone, to the form in which more than seventy millions of peo ple diffused over the globe, now claim it as their common inheritance and joint possession, needs no apology for its existence. From the moment of the first inception, and throughout the long course of the preparation of this work, I have striven to write a history useful not only to scholars but to all readers of the Eng lish Bible, and therefore deemed it expedient to present the longer illustrative examples, drawn from the sacred originals and from versions in extinct or foreign tongues, with companion translations in English. In submitting the results of independent study and research in the interesting field of inquiry touching the ancestry of the Authorized Version, and its relationship to various English and Foreign Versions, the noble labors of others have been duly acknowledged to the full extent of their use.iv preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bible as English Literature This book springs from a course of study which I have offered for several years at Harvard University in the Department of English. In this course my object has been to make students as familiar as possible with the English Bible, and to throw light on its literary forms by bringing together facts from the history of its sources and from the history of the translation into English. For the latter purpose I have drawn freely on the larger results of the great school of learning which is commonly known as the Higher Criticism. This is in itself, as has often been pointed out, merely a critical study of the various books of both Old and New Testaments from the historical point of view; it arrives at its results by a faithful comparison of the various parts with each other, and by bringing to bear on them all pertinent facts from the monuments and other external sources of history.
