Tho Messrs. Appleton are to DO congratu.
lated on the excellence Of their English version
OF the already celebrated Life Of Jsyus Christ by
the distinguished Dominican. the Rev. Father
DIDoN. Every one who has tried knows that
to translate French tolerably is easy enough.
but to translate 1t admirably is truly tour de
force. What De Quincy used to call tho lit
erature OF knowledge obviously lends itself to
the transfer OF facts from one tongue 10 an
other with the requisite exactitude. 1t is quito
otherwise with the literature OF power or style.

Musset Gsuthier. or RenAn. Is the despair Of

ish and delicacy OF the dlction that constitute
one OF the main charms OF the addition made
by Father Didon to the innumersble lives Of
Christ When we say. then. that we do not miss
this source OF attractiveness In the version
now issued by the Messrs. Appleton We pay
no stlnted tribute Of respect 70 the English
translators and to Mgr. Bernard O'Reilly by
whom their work has been carefully edited.

work OF Father Didon 10 deemed Q remarkable

also has recognized that only through the illu-

historical study oan the Gospel narrative be
interpreted. One must travel eastward In
space and sojourn In Palestine amid the scenes
which Jesus looked upon. and one must travel
backward In time and become naturaliEed
citizen OF the era In which Christ was born.
That both OF these prerequisites were forth
coming will be evident on the first inspection OF
the book before US. The exhibition OF topograph-
Ical and historical knowledge is tho more
striking. because In the collecting OF data and

Of Mr.. Georges remarkable work Mr.. Wallace
proposed to buy up the rights OF the existing

widely through the influence OF Mr. Michael
Davitt It Is less known that during his recent
lecturing tour through Australasia Mr.. George
made many converts to his idea and gave rise
to n considerable agitation In South Aus

The carpenter shop WAS the FIRST and true
school OF jesus. There He grew up beside His
father and mother and heard from their
mouths the precepts OF the law and the history
OF the people. II. rs Father Dldon says. He
learned Of them to read the Scriptures. 1t was
doubtless In mn Aramaic version. On this
point the author Is not so clear as We could
wish. He points ont. indeed. that Arama!c or
Syro-ChaldRan was the mother tongue III
Jesus. but no conveys the impression that in
tie synagogue whore the young Israelite was
wont to complete his education. Jesus was
taught to read the Scriptures in tho original
Hebrew. There 10 no evidence in the Gospels
that the Hebrew language was known to
Jesus. Tho words which He II made to oc.
casionally utter. and which arc mistaken
by tho unlearned for Hebrew. are rs
matter OF fact. AramAic. 1t 10 certain. in.
deed. that Hebrew hal long ceused to DO
the vernacular Of Palestine. and there Ia no
reason to believe that with the exception Of tho
scribes, any OF tho incorporates OF Jesus
could read It. When one OF the readers In tho
synagogue had rccited passages from tho
law or the prophets In Hebrew. he always
proceeded to interpret them In the Aramaic
tongue. 1t sesms to Us also that Father Didon
passes too lightly over the controvorted point
whether Jesus was acquainted with the Hell
lenic language. or rather with the dialect OF It
spoken In the numerous Hellenized cities OF
the Holy Land. and by the whole body OF civil
administrators. All that the author has to say
upon the subject 10 contained In these lines.
viz: 1t does not appear that Jesus spoke
Greek. Hellenic culture hsd not penetrated
the Jewish population In Palestine. and In any
case the people only felt its influence fesbly."

house gave way TO II In all ways which did not

itself. jewish communities and Greek colonies
stood side by side In incessant intereommuni-
cation. and IL seems that some knowledge OF
tho two tongues. Greek and Aramaic must
have been needed for the ordinary business Of
life. II has even boon disputed whsther some
quotations made by Jesus from the Old Testa-
ment are not In fact made from the septuagint.
