Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Second Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians: A Study in Translations and an Interpretation
From this plunge translators generally have shrunk - not daring to cast loose entirely from the Greek arrangement of clause and sentence. The resultant failures have brought discredit upon all attempts to translate the New Testament into modern speech, and have confirmed the widespread opinion that Jacobean English is unique in elegance and dignity and consequently (in spite of I Cor. I. 27, 28) in spiritual value. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
