Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The First Epistle of St. John: With Exposition and Homiletical Treatment The present Commentary has been reprinted, almost without alteration, from the pages of the Homiletic Magazine, in which it appeared from time to time during a period of nearly six years. The author readily acceded to the proposal for the reprinting, from the hope that as it had been already found useful by some, it might be useful to more. At the same time, he is fully aware that the circumstances under which it was originally produced have precluded any careful independent investigation of the Epistle for himself. His task has simply been to select from the various commentaries before him such matter as seemed to him most likely to be useful to those for whom his own was originally designed. Full and thoughtful as are many of the recent German commentators, their style is too diffuse to make their works of much value to the hard-worked parish clergyman, who has too little time to extract the many grains of gold scattered here and there in their writings, and who frequently loses his way amid the disquisitions into which they enter on points - to him at least - of comparatively slight importance. The author regrets that the valuable works of Professor Westcott and Mr. Plummer had not appeared when he commenced his task. He has therefore only been able to consult them from ch. iii. onwards. Any coincidence of thought in the earlier part of the Commentary has been independently arrived at. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
