Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Expositor, Vol. 14
But before proceeding to this, it is necessary to point out that even if the text, as assumed by Dr. Wright, and accepted by Dr. Robertson, is right, there is no certainty whatever about their translation. Robertson quotes Swete for a reference to Enoch, Chapter xx., where we find the expres sion the one, 6 els, Of the holy angels. One naturally turns to see whether this expression implies an angel who has primacy, such as is suggested for Judas in Mark, and we find to our surprise that it is used for a sequence Of angels, one after another, who are incapable collectively of primacy in relation to one another.1 It seems, there fore, tha't both the text and the translation may be wrong. But I will not, for reasons given above, press these points unduly.
