Excerpt from The New Testament, Revised and Translated: With Notes and Instructions, Designed to Aid the Earnest Reader in Obtaining a Clear Understanding of the Doctrines, Ordinances, and Primitive Assemblies, as Revealed in These Scriptures There is yet one other matter the writer has not felt free to copy from others; Viz., the habit of transferring a participial modifier of the subject to the predicate, and make it a part of a compound predicate; as, and having taken a towel, He girded Himself, instead of, as some revisions have it, and took a towel and girded Himself. This may make the same general meaning, but it is not true to the Greek; and, besides, it assumes the right to put in an and that is not found in the Greek. This is a very common occurrence in most translations. It is needless to say, after what has been said above, that this book appears in the interest of no denomination of Christians; nor does the writer expect any of them, as such, to adopt it; albeit, he does expect intelligent Christians, into whose hands it may fall, who are hungering and thirsting for the Gospel of Christ, to appreciate it; and to help in its distribution over the land, regardless of all petty sect opposition. The writer feels sure that those who read and Study this version carefully and prayer fully, in connection with the notes, will be led to drop many of the traditions of men, and come into the possession of a much larger Gospel, than has been ordinarily dealt out to them. The Gospel of Christ, in its fullest meaning, and with all its provisions for the wants of our sinful race, is none too large; and it has been one aim with the writer, all the way through, to bring out, so far as he has been able, the whole truth, as truth is in Jesus.
