Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Studies of the Man Paul These studies have for their subject the character of Paul, not so much his life or work or thought as the man. Of course it is only by his life and work and thought that the character of the man is revealed. But the aim of this little book is to study as far as possible the man himself, the personality of Paul. In some measure certainly what he did shaped and moulded him. In truer sense what he was determined and explained what he did. The various chapters are divided into sections and numbered divisions for the convenience of Bible classes. They were prepared for Bible students, and have appeared in part, in the Record of Christian Work for the use of a mid-week Bible class. The simple name Paul, rather than Saint Paul, is used in conformity with the invariable usage of both the Authorized and the Revised Versions. The references throughout are to the Revised Version. Almost the whole of F. W. H. Myers´ Saint Paul has been quoted in these studies. I wish that every one who reads this book might possess and study that exquisite poem. These simple studies are sympathetic, not critical. Their purpose is wholly practical, and they pass by in the main the questions with which criticism is concerning itself. Even in such practical studies, however, it is impossible to avoid statements which involve judgments of one sort or another on these questions. Yet the whole purpose has been to set in the foreground Paul himself and not any secondary interests, and in some richer and fuller way to understand him. In a sense, such a study is disappointing after a study of the character of Christ in the Gospels. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
