Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The First Epistle of St. John: A Contribution to Biblical Theology
Concerning the exposition of the passages, ch. Iv. 1 7 - 19 and oh. V. 6 - 8, which present so many difficulties, we need say no more than that our expositor has been able to illustrate every point in its relation to St. J obu's general habit of thought. Ou the other hand, we cannot altogether accord with his remarks upon oh. V. 16, 17; Our own view is that the apostle here describes by another name the sin which the Saviour termed a sin against the Holy Ghost, and does no more than declare the uselessness of prayer for such a sin. For the rest, the elucidation of the details is here also, as everywhere, both striking and instructive.
