Synopsis

""On A Fresh Revision Of The English New Testament"" is a book written by Joseph Barber Lightfoot in 1871. The book discusses the need for a new revision of the English New Testament, as the current translations were deemed inadequate. Lightfoot argues that the original Greek text should be used as the basis for the revision, and that the translation should be more accurate and faithful to the original. He also criticizes the previous translations for their lack of consistency and clarity. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of the Bible who are interested in the history of biblical translation and interpretation. It provides insights into the challenges and complexities involved in translating the New Testament from Greek to English, and offers suggestions for improving the accuracy and clarity of the translation. Overall, ""On A Fresh Revision Of The English New Testament"" is an important work that continues to influence biblical scholarship and translation to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
