Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Gospel According to S. John: Illustrated (Chiefly in the Doctrinal and Moral Sense) From Ancient and Modern Authors
But, however thankful for the measure Of past success, the Author is SO far from presuming upon it, that he recognizes the obligation, resting upon him, to remedy every defect in the first impression, and to do his utmost in rendering these Illustra tions more complete, and more serviceable. With this view he has removed some of the Notes, that he might introduce, in their stead, passages, regarded by him as having superior claims. He has added to the carefully selected scripture-references and has also verified numerous extracts, by consulting the original Authors - a task, indeed, of no great labour, as he happily pos sesses nearly every one of them in his well-stored Library. The Volume before us, moreover, has now its own proper Index of the principal Contents - an advantage, which it shares with each second Edition of the preceding Gospels.
