Download or read book The Freer Gospels Classic Reprint written by Edgar Johnson Goodspeed and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Freer Gospels The Freer Gospels first claimed the attention of modern scholars in the autumn of 1906, when a Gizeh dealer showed it with other ancient Biblical manuscripts to Dr. Grenfell and Dr. Hunt in Cairo. The manuscript with its three companions was purchased on December 19, 1906, by Mr. Charles L. Freer, and was sent to America. At a meeting of archaeologists held in Chicago on December 30, 1907, it was announced and briefly discussed, by Professor Henry A. Sanders. The text of the manuscript, which Professor Gregory has designated W, has since been carefully collated by Professor Sanders with an Oxford edition (1880) of the Received Text. The limited currency of that text and particularly of that edition in this country, and probably also in England, and the fact that we are dealing not with a mediaeval cursive, but with an ancient uncial, make it seem desirable to put forth a collation with the text of Westcott and Hort, as the one most generally in use among English-speaking students. The appearance through the munificence of Mr. Freer of an excellent facsimile edition of the Freer Gospels and the distribution of this edition among leading libraries make such a collation easy, but not superfluous, since relatively few of those who feel an interest in the text of the manuscript will have convenient access to the facsimile edition, and few who do will have leisure for a continuous collation. How the new manuscript relates to Westcott and Hort is moreover what many students wish to know. To make the testimony of the Freer Gospels accessible to the widest possible circle of textual students, therefore, I have undertaken to provide a collation of its text with that of Westcott and Hort. I have sought to make this collation substantially complete; but mere itacisms, except in some proper names, and in some words where they may have a certain significance, I have disregarded, as well as Imam/179 for 'iwaiw;s and the habitual addition of v-movable to e'an', third singulars in 'e, and words in m. This is so constant that I have sought to record in a special note only W's failures to insert it where it might have stood.

This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Testament Manuscripts in the Freer Collection The publication of the Fragments of the Epistles of Paul com pletes the study of the four Biblical manuscripts bought by Mr. Freer in 1906. These badly decayed fragments were left until the last because of their supposed inferior value and still more because of the difficulty of separating and reading accurately such small and discolored pieces of parchment. Most of the labor of editing has fallen to this part of the work, in the course of which the original collation has been compared and corrected three times. Somewhat more was read in the first collation than could be seen on later examination, but the fragments now seem to be keeping perfectly and so will be available for future reference.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Testament Manuscripts in the Freer Collection In the publication of the manuscript of the Psalms the chief task has been to separate and read the badly decayed and black ened leaves. No pains have been spared in making the work as complete and accurate as possible, yet in all too many cases these decayed fragments of a manuscript have no evidence on most interesting passages. All decayed or lost lines and parts of lines have been filled out in the text publication from the Swete text, except where the amount of space in the manuscript proved the existence of a variant. The first fifteen Psalms are so fragmen tary, that it seemed best to give those lines only of which some part is preserved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

One of the needs of the time would seem to be, to translate the solid theological learning, of which there is no lack, into the vernacular of' everyday practical religion; and while steering a course between what is called plain teaching on the one hand and erudition on the other, to supply some sound and readable instruction to those who require it, on the subjects included under the common title 'the Christian Religion, ' that they may be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh them a reason of the hope that is in them, with meekness and fear.
