Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Epistles to the Corinthians: With Notes and Comments It has often seemed to me that Biblical commentaries are not always as attractive as they might be. The scattered information given in the notes has to be carried back by the reader into the text, with the result that the interpretation often seems to suffer from a certain sense of jerkiness and lack of continuity. I have sought to obviate this by weaving into the course of the comment a translation of my own which stands out prominently in black lettering, and which can thus be conveniently compared with the familiar text of the Authorized Version which is printed at the top of the page, immediately above the commentary. The translation, running as it does through the continuous exposition, shows the reader how the words lie in the apostle´s mind. It thus becomes easy for him to follow the sequence of an argument or to see the force of an appeal, without passing continually from the commentary to the text; and the labour which this method has involved will be amply repaid, if it be found to add to the ease or the interest with which the epistles are read. The volume does not attempt to say all that might be said, but only such things as seemed really to interpret the apostle´s thought. Its object is to show how interesting, how vital, and how modern those ancient epistles are. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
