Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech (Complete)


Book Description

My former narrative, Theophilus, dealt with all that Jesus did and taught as a beginning, down to the day on which, 1:2 after giving instruction through the Holy Spirit to the Apostles whom He had chosen, He was taken up to Heaven. 1:3 He had also, after He suffered, shown Himself alive to them with many sure proofs, appearing to them at intervals during forty days, and speaking of the Kingdom of God. 1:4 And while in their company He charged them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for the Father's promised gift. "This you have heard of," He said, "from me. 1:5 For John indeed baptized with water, but before many days have passed you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit." 1:6 Once when they were with Him, they asked Him, "Master, is this the time at which you are about to restore the kingdom of Israel?" 1:7 "It is not for you," He replied, "to know times or epochs which the Father has reserved within His own authority; 1:8 and yet you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judaea and Samaria and to the remotest parts of the earth." 1:9 When He had said this, and while they were looking at Him, He was carried up, and a cloud closing beneath Him hid Him from their sight. 1:10 But, while they stood intently gazing into the sky as He went, suddenly there were two men in white garments standing by them.




From Tradition to Gospel


Book Description

First published in 1919, From Tradition to Gospel introduced and established Form Criticism in New Testament scholarship, and it remains the classic description of the field. Dibelius outlines the twofold object of Form Criticism, firstly to explain the origin of the tradition about Jesus, and secondly to uncover with what objective the earliest Churches learnt, recounted and passed on the stories and sayings of Jesus, which gradually developed into the Gospel narratives. In doing so, he begins to answer questions as to the nature and trustworthiness of our knowledge of Jesus. As new sources come to light and new critical techniques are developed, the original investigation into the Gospels along Form-Critical lines is as relevant as ever.

The Resultant Greek Testament


Book Description

Ò'The Resultant Greek Testament' is intended to exhibit in a compact and intelligible form the latest results of textual criticism. . . . I have judged it more convenient to the reader to put in the body of the page the text on which the majority of modern critics are agreed, relegating to the footnotes readings less numerously or less weightily sanctioned.Ó from the Preface Weymouth based this Òmajority readingÓ text on the following editions: Lachmann (1842-50), Tregelles (1857-72), Tischendorf (1869-72), Alford (1874-77), the Bale edition (1880), Westcott and Hort (1881), the Revised Version readings (1881), Lightfoot's Pauline epistles (1865-75), Ellicott's Pauline epistles (1867-80), and Weiss's text of Matthew (1876). In addition, Weymouth notes that he made use of Vaticanus, Sinaiticus, and other uncials that earlier editors did not have available. For comparison, he used the Compultusian Polyglot, Robert Stephens' folio of 1550, and the Textus Receptus.

The Second Epistle to the Corinthians


Book Description

The reputation of the NIGTC series is so outstanding that the appearance of each new volume is noteworthy. This book on 2 Corinthians is no exception. Master New Testament exegete Murray J. Harris has produced a superb commentary that analyzes the Greek text verse by verse against the backdrop of Paul's tumultuous relations with his converts at Corinth. Believing that Scripture cannot be understood theologically unless it has first been understood grammatically, Harris provides a careful, thoroughgoing reading of the text of 2 Corinthians. He gives special attention to matters of translation, making regular references not only to the standard modern English translations but also to influential older versions such as "The Twentieth Century New Testament" and those by Weymouth, Moffatt, and Goodspeed. His close attention to matters of textual criticism and grammar leads to discussions of the theology of 2 Corinthians that show the relevance of Paul's teaching to Christian living and church ministry. Other notable features of the book include a comprehensive introduction in which all the relevant literary and historical issues are discussed, an expanded paraphrase of the letter that conveniently shows Harris's decisions on exegetical issues and indicates the flow of Paul's argument, a chronology of the relations of Paul, Timothy, and Titus with the Corinthian church, and an excursus on Paul's "affliction in Asia" (1:8-11) and its influence on his outlook and theology.
