Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Commentary on the New Testament, Vol. 1 To a friend who happened in one morning while Dr. Weiss was writing upon this book and who remarked, "You seem tireless in your work upon the New Testament," he replied, "The Church has a right to expect much from my years of study and teaching." The expectation of the Church has not been disappointed. Especially are such works as this and his "Religion of the New Testament" large satisfactions of that expectation, in that they, in a way, sum up and embody all the results of many years of painstaking and successful study. There is no department of New Testament study which Dr. Weiss has not made debtor to him. It is safe to say that no man has in his day exerted a wider influence toward a sound, careful, fruitful study of the Scriptures than he. This is not simply because of his sane, independent, penetrating work, but also because in all this work he has ever been devout, and reverent. His interest in Biblical study has not been merely scientific, as is unfortunately the case with some of his German fellow-students. Scientific methods have been inspired and balanced by sympathetic, vital interest. Intellectual insight has been refined and kept true by spiritual appreciation. It is not strange that he has been asked to take an even larger share in the successive editions of Meyer's Commentary. One is impressed in working with him, by his earnest desire to get at the truth. All the force of critical acumen, logical reasoning and warm sympathy are brought to bear upon the text before him. He tries to see it not only in its own relations of grammar and thought, but in its relations also to the time and circumstances in which it came to be and to the mind which produced it.

This book was released on 2016-08-26 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biblical Commentary on the New Testament, Vol. 1 The general character and merits Of Olshausen's Commentary on the New Testament are too well known both abroad and at home to need being set forth in detail. In its combination Of exact philo logical learning, careful tracing Of the logical connexion and full unfolding Of the thought, and hearty sympathy with the spirit of the sacred writings, it stands almost alone, having nothing fully corresponding to it in our own or any language. This union of rare and high excellences makes it almost equally valuable to the scholar, and the unlearned but intelligent student Of the Scriptures. The latter finds the richest veins of thought Opened, and Scripture truth unfolded in its depth and spirituality while the former finds the leading critical and philological points discussed, brie y indeed, but with a judgment and accuracy which furnish the best guarantee for the soundness Of the rich doctrinal and practical teachings that are based upon them. A striking feature and excellence Of the Com mentary, is its clear and constant recognition Of the organic unity Of the entire Scriptures, and hence its constant illustration Of the New Testament from the Old. Beyond, perhaps, the majority Of commentators, Olshausen has traced the gradual unfolding Of the divine revelation through its successive stages. He sees the New Testament rooted in the Old, the Old reaching its consummation in the New and he is eminently felicitous in employing the beautiful and blended lights which the two grand divisions Of the sacred vol ume reciprocally cast upon each other.

Download or read book A New Testament Commentary for English Readers Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by C. J. Ellicott and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Testament Commentary for English Readers, Vol. 1 The present Commentary may in many respects claim to be considered as new in its design and construction, and us an attempt to supply a need which has been long and seriously felt by meditative readers of God's Holy Word. We have at present no Commentary of the New Testament which addresses itself especially to that large and increasing class of cultivated English readers who, believing the Holy Scriptures to be what an ancient writer has defined them to be - "the true sayings of the Holy Ghost" - and knowing and feeling them to be living and abiding words, desire to realise them, and to be able intelligently to apply them to their daily wants and to the general context of life around them. This class largely includes those who are unable to read the Holy Scriptures in their original languages, and to whom the many valuable commentaries, based on the original text, which this country and Germany now freely supply, are unavailing and inaccessible. And yet, even if they could read them, they would hardly find in them all they want. They might find lucid explanations of difficulties, well-chosen historical illustrations, judicial discussion of disputed interpretations, candid investigation of real or supposed discrepancies; still there would be something yet wanting which, after all, they would feel was that which they most needed, and for which, even amid all this affluence of exegetical detail, they were to some extent looking in vain. This something, this lacking element, even in commentaries of this higher class, it is the especial object and design of our present Commentary at any rate to attempt to supply; and it may briefly be defined to be this the setting forth of the inner life of Scripture, and that, too, not without reference to the hopes, fears, needs, aspirations, and distinctive characteristics of the restless age in which we are now living. No class feels more sensibly the need of this vital element in the interpretation of Holy Scripture than the large and intelligent body of thoughtful men and women to which we are especially addressing ourselves. They feel the storm and stress of intellectual difficulties; they realise, often vividly and acutely, the trials to which the childlike faith of early days is now being increasingly subjected; they see old landmarks disappearing, old truths undergoing modification and change, and, in their deepening anxiety, they turn, with the true instinct of the Christian soul, to that which they inwardly feel changes not - the enduring and abiding Word of God. They turn to it; and it speaks to them, for it is a living Word; but its consolations are often only imperfectly appreciated, its truths far from fully realised, its promises very inadequately recognised to be the true moving principles of a pure, chivalrous, self-denying, and holy life. They need the sympathetic interpreter. They need one to guide them, who has thought as they think, who feels as they feel - one who, from no mere ecclesiastical standpoint, or the supposed vantage-ground of some half-selfish theological adjustment, but simply from the reverent, loving, and prayerful study of the Book of Life, sets forth to them its ever fresh truths, its ever new aspects, its ever pertinent and timely consolations. Such is the commentator and such the commentary that is now more than ever needed by the earnest general reader in these closing years of a progressive and eventful century. That these high aims have been realised in this present volume is more than any editor, however hopeful, and however confident in the ability of those with whom he is working, could by any means with propriety assert.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Commentary on the New Testament, Vol. 1: Matthew, Mark I'm; word Gospel literally signifies good news, or, a joyful message. It is now almost exclusively applied to the doctrines of the New Testament; or, by a common figure, to the New Testament itself, especially to the first four books, namely, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Matthew, the writer of this Gospel, was one of the twelve apostles his call is recorded by himself, in ch. Ix. 9 and by Mark, in ch. Ii. 14, where he is called Levi the son of Alpheus. Of his labors as an apostle, and the time and manner of his death, little is known. He is represented, by some ancient writers, to have suffered martyrdom; but the evidence rests on tradition only. Critics have disputed concerning the true date of this Gospel. Some suppose it was written as early as A. D. 37; others, as late as A. D. 61. Home suggests, that, as the weight of evidence is in favor of Saint Mat thew's having composed his 'gospel in Hebrew and Greek, we may refer the early date of A. D. 37 or 38 to the former, and A. D. 61 to the latter. Introd. IV. 234. It has stood at the beginning of the New Testament, from the time when the books were first arranged; which is, in itself, an argu ment in favor of its early date, or, at_least, that it was then supposed to have been written before either of the other three.

This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 760 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Explanatory and Practical Commentary on the New Testament of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Vol. 1: Intended Chiefly as a Help to Family Devotion; Containing the Gospels and Acts It has not appeared expedient to mark the alterations made in this revision - suffice it to say, that the first edition has been selected as the basis of all my editorial labors. In the first vo lume, the largest portion of the original matter has been pre served - occasionally short paragraphs have been omitted, and new matter introduced - in some instances, the lectures have been subdivided, and a fuller exposition given to each part. In revising the second volume, I found it necessary to make still greater alterations. The author appears to have thought it im possible to give anything like a satisfactory view of the inspired epistles in the short compass of these lectures, and, therefore, often merged the explanatory part in the practical. This gave an unfinished aspect to the second volume. The editor's labours had, therefore, to tend rather towards a continuation than a re vision. The union of plain exposition with deep, practical appli cation of truth, so happily pervading the first volume, was once more to be attempted. To remedy the deficiency just mentioned, the first necessary step was to take a smaller portion of the sacred word for each lecture, and thus, without lengthening the exposition to an un due extent, a greater scope was given for explanatory com ments. In many instances this was easily effected but in the Epistles to the Romans and to the Hebrews, and a large portion of the book of Revelation, I found it necessary to remodel the whole, and to write the exposition de novo, retaining as much of the original matter as could be made available'in so extensive a change. An amount of responsibility thus devolved on me, which I had little expected, when I undertook the work. How far I have been able to carry out the original features of this commentary, or expound a large portion of the sacred vo lume with simplicity, faithfulness and conciseness, it is not for me to' decide. The deep responsibility of commenting on the words of the living God, has often weighed me down - the feel ing of creature-incompetency has never in any period of my life been more painfully experienced. But I have done what I could. I feel thankful to my heavenly Father who has often heard my prayer, and given me help in this arduous work, and to his gracious benediction I commend my poor labours, under the deep persuasion that we write in vain and read in vain.

This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short Protestant Commentary on the Books of the New Testament, Vol. 1: With General and Special Introductions The Commentary, of which a translation is here given to English readers, is a Commentary on Luther's version of the New Testament, such corrections as the commentators thought necessary being made in the notes. It may be presumed that the very same arguments which led the editors to take Luther's version as their basis, would have led them in England to take the "Authorized Version." Accordingly, the words of the New Testament as given in italics in the notes and then commented upon, are taken throughout from the Authorized Version. The rendering there given in inverted commas is that of the German commentator, and where introduced by the words "should be" is given by him as a necessary correction, some error occurring in Luther's version as in our own. Where the quotation is simply followed by a correction in inverted commas without remark, the correction is the reading found in Luther's version, and accepted by the commentator without remark.
