Description
Excerpt from The New Testament: The Authorised English Version; With Introduction, and Various Readings From the Three Most Celebrated Manuscripts of the Original Greek Text
Every important purpose, in awork meant for the people at large, is accomplished b the Gospels in their present state. Had they centaine all the words and actions of Christ, they would have been too voluminous for a manual adapted to ordinary use. Enough is recorded to direct our faith and regulate our practice; more would have been super?uous, and in some respects (from the multitude of questions and unprofitable speculations to which, judging from what we see is now the case, they would have given rise), might have defeated the main purpose in view, - the 'making men wise unto salvation, through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
