Synopsis
Excerpt from The Symmetrical Structure of Scripture<br/><br/>But the Work is not designed for the Scholar alone. It has been the Author's endeavour to avoid the parade of learning, by which the meaning is too often overlaid in works of criticism, and to exhibit as far as possible only results, in language intelligible to ordinary readers. With few exceptions, the rendering of the Authorized Version has been retained (unless in the extracts from Bishops Lowth and J ebb), in order to prove to the unlearned reader, how little the exact correspondence of the Parallelisms is dependent on any questionable changes in the translation.

The Symmetrical Structure of Scripture (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of Hebrew poetry, exploring a unique structure known as "Parallelism." The author, a scholar of the Bible, argues that this specific form of poetic arrangement, characterized by a correspondence of ideas rather than sounds, is not confined to the Old Testament but extends throughout the New Testament as well. He challenges the notion that parallelism is merely a stylistic flourish, asserting that it is a key to unlocking the deeper meaning and interconnectedness of Scripture. By examining verses, paragraphs, and even entire compositions like the Sermon on the Mount and the Ten Commandments, the author reveals how parallelism reveals hidden layers of meaning, emphasizes key points, and guides the reader through complex theological concepts. The book examines various types of parallelism, from synonymous and antithetic forms to the more intricate introverted parallelism, showcasing how these structures enhance the clarity and memorability of the sacred text. The author demonstrates how a careful analysis of these structures, particularly in the Psalms and the Gospels, leads to a richer understanding of the spiritual lessons and truths conveyed by Scripture. This book offers a compelling and insightful exploration of a little-known aspect of biblical composition, empowering readers to engage with Scripture in a deeper and more meaningful way. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331807100_0
