A New Bible.

In few months, at the furthest, the
New Testament, in a revised translation,
will be in the hands of English and
American readers. The question natur-
all arises whether the new version will
be received. 1t was answered the other
evening before the Presbyterian council
at Philadelphia by Rev. DR.. I. W.
Chambers of New York. His points in
favor of the revision, briefly stated, are
these: The work is needed to bring the
translation of the Bible up to the present
state of the language and the present
stage of critical and exegeti, al investi-
cation. The revision will be based on
an improved text. 1t is undertaken by
the same authority as that to which we
are indebted for King James's version.
1t has been planned and advanced upon
an unsectarian basis. 1t hs been O work
in which the scholars of England and
the United States have co-operated. The
work of the revisers has been entirely
unhampered, yet it is revision, not a
new translation, of the Bible. 1t has
not been undertaken hastily, and every
change has been made after full deliber-
alton. The revised Bible will be marked
by uniformity in the use of Greek, He
brew and other words. The spirit in
which the work has been done is con-
sentative and reverent. These are its
chief claims to adoption. 1t will prob
ably be adopted slowly, matter of OPP
ton with different denominations, going
into use partly upon its merits, partly
as the result of a general movement
What has so far been done is the work
of ten years, and it is likely to be ten
years more before the whole Bible is re-
vised and in the hands of the people.
