Description
Excerpt from A Plain Introduction to the Criticism of the New Testament, Vol. 1: For the Use of Biblical Students
AT the time of the lamented death of Dr. Scrivener a new edition of his standard work was called for, and it was supposed that the great Master of Textual Criticism had himself made sufficient corrections and additions for the purpose in the margin of his Oopy. When the publishers committed to me the task of preparation, I was fully aware of the absolute necessity of going far beyond the materials placed at my disposal, if the book were to be really useful as being abreast of the very great pro gress accomplished in the last ten years. But it was not till I had laboured with absolute loyalty for some months that I discovered from my own Observation, and from the advice of some of the first textual critics, how much alteration must at once be made.
