Summary/Description
This unique version contains the complete Scriptures of the Old and New
Testaments, translated into English directly from the original Hebrew,
Chaldee and Greek languages, with instructions and critical notes by
Ferrar Fenton. Mr Fenton explained how he came to take up this arduous
work: "In the year 1853 there was inspired into my mind, by what
appeared a mere accident, a resolve to study the Bible absolutely in its
original languages, to ascertain what its writers actually said and
taught .... I at once threw myself into the stream of the suggestion and
registered a vow that I would never again read the Gospels, or
Christian Documents of our Faith, in any language but Greek, until I had
learned to think in that tongue and it had become as familiar to me as
the dictation of an English newspaper".
