English THE INTERWOVEN GOSPELS AND GOSPEL HARMONY THE FOUR HISTORIES OF JESUS CHRIST BLENDED INTO A According to the REVISED VERSION of 1881 with the readings and renderings preferred by the AMERICAN Committee of Revisio COMPILED BY REV. WILLIAM PITTENGER ORATORY, SACRED AND SECULAR,” "EXTEMPORE SPEECH," Ninth Thousand. NEW YORK: FORDS, HOWARD & HULBERT, 1895. PREFACE TO THE NEW EDITION OF "INTERWOVEN GOSPELS AND GOSPEL HARMONY.” THIS new and enlarged edition contains novel features of great value. In addition to the interwoven account which presents in bible words everything in the Four Gospels, all parallel accounts are given on opposite pages, in finer type, so that at a glance their relation is seen. Every clause and word taken from these parallel accounts to make up the interwoven narrative is underlined so that the mode of compilation is made perfectly obvious. In the Transfiguration account, for instance, we have Mark taken as the standard, and all the facts peculiar to Matthew and Luke are woven into it; then on opposite pages the full accounts by Matthew and Luke are given in fine type, with the words that have been added to Mark exhibited by underlining. The student who uses this work thus gets three important things before him without labor or the possibility of error: the full story combined from all the Gospels; the peculiarities of each Gospel; and the precise points of agreement or divergence between them. Many excellent Gospel Harmonies have been published, and also a few attempts to frame a continuous Gospel narrative; but so far as the present compiler is aware, no attempt has been made to place both the complete consecutive narrative and the Harmony before the eye at once. 413973 |
