Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Emendations of the Authorised Version: Of the Old Testament
So much in excuse for the sin of commission. Now for that of omission.
Firstly, not to increase the bulk of this work and enhance the expense, I have quoted just as much of a verse or phrase as I found necessary. It will, therefore, be indispensable in order to understand the difference in the two renderings, by rejecting the one and substituting the other, to look at the whole verse, and sometimes even at what precedes and follows it.
Secondly, I have omitted to notice those mistranslations where there is no difference between the meaning conveyed in them, and in an improved translation.
