Excerpt from Notes on the Late Revision: Of the New Testament Version
I. They are not intended at all to point out the merits of the Revision, but only some of its faults. It is freely and fully admitted that the Revisers have made important corrections and many improvements. Indeed it were pass ing strange if so many biblical critics, selected from the ripest scholarship of Great Britain and America, after de voting so many years to their task, had failed to make such emendations. No scholar of even the most moderate pretension could have failed to make many such in far less time. Though this would seem, therefore, no great ground of boasting, we cheerfully accord the Revisers all the credit they can claim on this score. But the counter balancing faults, if such there be, must be considered be fore making up a final judgment. We propose to furnish from this quarter some of the material for such a judg ment.
