Prolegomena to St. Paul's Epistles to the Romans and the Ephesians (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Prolegomena to St. Paul's Epistles to the Romans and the Ephesians I propose this term to lecture on the Epistle to the Romans, in itself an enormous subject. To deal properly with it would need not merely a longer term than this, but many terms. Even however in this unusually short term I hope that by rigorous selection of topics we may be able to get some substantial hold of the Epistle; and, owing to the peculiar position which it holds among St Paul's Epistles, even a very imperfect study of it will yield more instruction than a somewhat less imperfect study of, I believe we may say, any other single Epistle of st Paul would have done. In this case, perhaps more than usual, the benefit to be derived from attending lectures must be pro portional to the time and care spent upon the subject by members of the class in private work. The utmost that a lecturer can do is to supply suggestions which can be verified and followed up at home.

St. Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from St. Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians An English commentator on the Epistle to the Ephesians finds a portion of the detail of his work already done by the master-hand of Bishop Lightfoot in his edition of the companion Epistle to the Colossians. For the discussion of particular words I have accordingly referred again and again to Lightfoot's notes. Where I have felt obliged to differ from some of his interpretations, it has seemed due to him that I should state the ground of the difference with considerable fulness, as for example in more than one of the detached notes: for we may not lightly set aside a judgment which he has given. Lightfoot had himself made preparations for an edition of Ephesians; but only an introductory Essay and notes on the first fourteen verses have seen the light (Biblical Essays, pp. 375-396; Notes on Epistles of St Paul, pp. 307-324). A more solid contribution to the study of the epistle is to be found in Hort's Introductory Lectures (Prolegomena to Romans and Ephesians, pp. 63-184). I have nothing to add to the discussion of the authorship of this epistle which these lectures contain. My object has been to expound the epistle, which is the crown of St Paul's writings. I have separated the exposition from the philological commentary, in order to give myself greater freedom in my attempt to draw out St Paul's meaning, and I have prefixed to each section of the exposition a translation of the Greek text.
