Sinopsis

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Critical Study and Knowledge of the Holy Scriptures, Vol. 4

The second portion of this volume consists of Introductions to the respective books of the New Testament. And here I am not author, but simply editor. Here I felt that I stood on very different ground from that which I had occupied with regard to the Textual portion of the volume. I had not so much to consider how I should have treated the subjects, as what addition might be needful, in consequence of modern research, to what the Rev. T. H. Home had him self stated. It was not for me to pull down one edifice in order to erect another in its stead; to do this for the mere sake of change, would be like removing an old manor house to make room for a trim Italian villa.

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Critical Study and Knowledge of the Holy Scriptures, Vol. 4

This volume consists of three parts, which may be considered separately.

The first is an Introduction to the Textual Criticism and Study of the New Testament: for this I am wholly responsible; for, with the exception of portions cited expressly from the Rev. T. H. Horne, it has been entirely prepared for this volume. It would, indeed, have been easy to have taken the material already existing on the subject of the MSS., versions, &c. &c., of the New Testament, as written by Mr. Horne, and to have enlarged it by a few additions, and to have introduced the mention of newly-discovered MSS. in a similar manner; two reasons, however, especially weighed with me in giving to this portion of the volume its present form.
