| Publisher Description: This translation of the Pauline epistles can rightly be included in the category of Bible translations that strive to achieve both an accurate rendering of the individual words and the conceptual meaning transcending the languages. As Arthur S. Way, writes in his original Preface, "... I have endeavored to put my readers in the place of those who first listened to these letters." Sanders, a classical scholar, translator, and headmaster published translations of both The Odyssey of Homer, Done into English Verse; and The Iliad of Homer, as well as works done by some twenty different Latin and Greek writers. The most important of his works, though, is this translation of the epistles. Way incorporates a brief introduction to each of the church epistles, including background details and in some cases the subjects covered. These opening expositions further enlighten and guide the reader as they study the all important letters. |
