THE NEW WORDS OF JESUS.
DIR. McEIveen on the Reported Dis
coyery of Egyptian Papyri.
CNew York Times.J


The Rev. Or. william Y. McElveen,
pastor of the New England Congrega-
tional church. in south Ninth street, near
briggs avenue, Brooklyn, preached on
THE Newly Discovered Words OF
Jesus; or Are We to Have Additions
TO our Bibles?'
He took as his text the last verse OF
the Gospel of ST. John: And there are
also many other things which Jesus did
which, I'll they should be written
every one. / suppose that even the world
itself could not contain the books that
should be written"
In substance. he said: John IN these
words confesses that his Gospel is in
complete and fragmentary. but even
when he finished its composition. adj
ditional material abounded on all sides
with which to construct another life
of Jesus.
During the past week the newspapers
of the land. with characteristic enter
prise, have published the fascinating and
interesting story of remarkable dis
covery of manuscripts I'm Egypt These
manuscripts were first brought to light
last winter in a village called Behnesa,
a town 100 miles south OF Cairo, on the
borders Of the. Lybian Desert. To two
members of the Egyptian exploration
party, Messrs. Greenfall and Hunt we
are indebted for the important find OF
manuscript The find comprises over
4.Go0 different manuscripts. Some OF
these are wills. contracts. and private
documents in which the Christian pub
lie IS not so interested but it Is in
terested in that part which has TO do
with the Gospel.
lone OF the papyri, which is the pro-
per name for the manuscripts. contains
the first chapter Of the Gospel Of st.
Matthew. and Dr. Winslow. the leading
archaeologist of this country. and vice
president Of the Egyptian exploration
party. has received word that the
papyrue was orthodox and authentic. II
is in the writing Of the third century.
When we remember that we have no
manuscript older than the fourth CEN
fury It is easy to see how valuable
this find is.
Another item OF Importance brought
out by the discovery is some reputed
statements Of Christ that are not re-
corded in any OF the four gospels. Du-
ring this week there will be repro
duced a fac-simile OF this logia. which.
when received in America. will create
literary sensation"
