"Sure I am, that there commeth more knowlege and vnderstondinge of the Scripture by their sondrie translacyons, then by all the gloses of oure sophisticall doctours. For that which one interpreteth somthynge obscurely in one place, the same translateth another (or else he himself) more manifestly by a more playne vocable of the same meanying in another place." BISHOP COVERDALE.

Extra Demy quarto, price 21. 2s.

Kept bound in calf and Turkey morocco and Russia flexible styles. The use and value of many translations of the Scriptures into a vernacular language, may be regarded as generally admitted. As translators

are merely fallible men, no translation can be regarded as really perfect. Hence, if the reader has the opportunity of comparing many translations, he has an opportunity of having his judgment corrected, and he is prevented from being misled by the expressions of any single translation. This applies especially to the unlearned reader; but with regard to those who are really critically learned, it is often found, that elucidations which are most important for the real understanding of Scripture have been suggested by means of a translation. These observations will of course apply to translations in general, but they have obviously an especial application to those which are made into our own language.

In this work the six principal English versions have been selected.
