The Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ, According to Matthew The Holy Gospel Of Jesus Christ, According To Matthew The Argument In this History written by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, the Spirit of God so governed their hearts, that although they were four in number, yet in effect and purpose they so consent, as though the whole had been composed by any one of them. And albeit in style and manner of writing they be divers, and sometime one writeth more largely that which the other doth abridge; nevertheless in matter and argument, they all tend to one end; which is to publish to the world the favor of God toward mankind through Christ Jesus, whom the father hath given as a pledge of his mercy and love. And for this cause they entitle their story Gospel, which signifieth good tidings, for as such as God hath performed indeed that which the fathers hoped for. So that hereby we are admonished to forsake the world, and the vanities thereof, and with most affectioned hearts embrace this incomparable treasure freely offered unto us, for there is no joy nor consolation, no peace nor quietness, no felicity nor salvation, but in Jesus Christ, who is the very substance of this Gospel, and in whom all the promises are Yea, and Amen. And therefore under this word is contained the whole New Testament; but commonly we use this name for the history, which the four Evangelists write, containing Christ’s coming in the flesh, his death, and resurrection, which is the perfect sum of our salvation. Matthew, Mark, and Luke are more copious in describing his life and death; but John more laboreth to set forth his doctrine, wherein both Christ’s office, and also the virtue of his death and resurrection more fully appear; for without this, to know that Christ was born, dead, and risen again, should nothing profit us. The which thing notwithstanding that the three first touch partly, as he also sometime intermeddled the historical narration, yet John chiefly is occupied herein. And therefore as a most learned interpreter writeth, they describe as it were, the body, and John setteth before our eyes the soul. Wherefore the same aptly termeth the Gospel written by John, the key which openeth the door to the understanding of the others; for whosoever doth know the office, virtue and power of Christ, shall 1 read that which is written of the Son of God come to be the Redeemer of the world, with most profit. Now as concerning the writers of this history, it is evident that Matthew was a Publican, or custom gatherer, and was chosen of Christ to be an Apostle. Mark is thought to have been Peter’s disciple, and to have planted the first Church at Alexandria, where he died the eighth year of the reign of Nero. Luke was a Physician of Antioch, and became Paul’s disciple, and fellow in all his travels; he lived fourscore and four years, and was buried at Constantinople, John was the Apostle whom the Lord loved, the son of Zebedee, and brother of James; he died threescore years after Christ, and was buried near to the city of Ephesus.

and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren. 3 And Judas begat Phares; and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; And Esrom begat Aram. 4 And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon. 5 And Salmon begat Boaz of Rachab; and Boaz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse. 6 And Jesse begat David the King; and David the King Begat Solomon of her that was the wife of Urias. 7 And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa. 8 And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias. 9 And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias. 10 And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias. 11 And Josias begat Jakim; and Jakim begat Jechonias and his brethren about the time they were carried away to Babylon. 12 And after they were carried away into Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel. 13 And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor. 3 14 And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud. 15 And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob. 16 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born JESUS, that is called Christ. 17 So all the generations from Abraham to David, are fourteen generations; and from David until they were carried away into Babylon, fourteen generations; and after they were carried away into Babylon until Christ, fourteen generations. 18 ¶ Now the birth of Jesus Christ was thus: When as his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the holy Ghost. 19 Then Joseph her husband being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. 20 But whiles he thought these things, behold, the Angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, the son of David, fear not to take Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her, is of the holy Ghost. 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS, for he shall save his people from their sins. 22 And all this was done that it might be fulfilled, which is spoken of the Lord by the Prophet, saying. 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which is by interpretation, God with us. 24 ¶ Then Joseph being raised

  • The Geneva Bible and Jauss' "Horizon of Expectations"
    1994 CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS 175 TRANSLATION AND THEORY- THE GENEVA BIBLE AND JAUSS' "HORIZON OF EXPECTATIONS" Michael Jensen The Geneva Bible was the Bible that became the Bible of its generation, favoured by an impressive array of writers from Shakespeare and Spenser to Milton. Read on its own terms, however, it demanded devotion rather than mere exegesis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the achievement of the Geneva Bible from the point of view of reading by examining what the translation asked of its original readers and how it changed their "horizon of expectations". This method, adapted from the reception-theory of Hans Robert Jauss, provides a means by which to assess the readers' responses to the Geneva Bible. Central to the Geneva Bible's achievement was the model of reading it prescribed -"simple reading": the readers of the Geneva Bible were called to become "simple readers". The historical situation First published in 1560, the Geneva Bible was produced and read at a time of crisis in English history. Following Mary's accession in 1553, almost 1,000 English Protestants fled to the Continent, mainly to Germany and Switzerland. The group represented the most radical faction of English Protestantism. Calvin's Geneva in the 1550s was a centre for biblical textual scholarship which resulted in new editions of the Greek and Hebrew texts, a factor which attracted many of the exiles. It was here, in a scholarly and spiritually favourable environment that a team of translators, lead by William Whittingham, began work on a new English Bible. The result of their labours was a Bible for an England still under the threat of Catholic rule and for a church still in need of reform (in their view).

  • What About Young's 'Literal' Translation?
    What about Young's 'literal' translation? Young’s “literal” (Hah!) translation I recently had another conversation at one of the Christian Forums about whether or not there exists such a thing as a complete, inspired and 100% true Bible in any language, and I ran into another guy who was trying to push Young’s ‘literal’ translation as being better than the King James Bible. So, I addressed the points he raised and then finally decided to write something more about this bogus bible version so that everyone can see it for what it is - just another shabbily dressed impostor. Here is our initial conversation, followed by some more examples of just how pathetic this so called ‘literal” translation really is. Will (that’s me) said: "Young's has some very serious problems. Do you have eternal life or just "age during life"? Is God from everlasting to everlasting, or just "age during"? The man recommending Young’s then responds: [quote]” I believe that many people make the mistake of equating eternal to everlasting and the phrase age-during. Eternal is uncreated and not bound by time. Everlasting, Forever, or Age-During is a created state, but may go on without end. A Hebrew age is a reference to a thousand year lifespan such as Adam and Methuselah experienced. If you accept the holy-day prophecy of 6 thousand years of work and 1 thousand year reign of God, age-during makes sense in a dispensational way. The understanding of the Hebrew 'owlam' is persistent endurance which can render as everlasting, forever, or the during part of -age-during.

  • FOUR EARLY BIBLES in PILGRIM HALL by Rev
    FOUR EARLY BIBLES IN PILGRIM HALL by Rev. Dr. Charles C. Forman Pilgrim Society Note, Series One, Number Nine, April 1959 Among the books in Pilgrim Hall are four Bibles of unusual interest. One belonged to Governor William Bradford, the Pilgrim Governor, and one to John Alden. These are among the very few objects existing today which we feel reasonably sure "came over in the Mayflower." Of the history of the two others we know little, but they are Geneva Bibles, the version most commonly used by the Pilgrims. John Alden’s Bible, rather surprisingly, is the "King James" version authorized by the Church of England, but he also owned a Geneva Bible, which is now in the Dartmouth College Library. The four Bibles belonging to the Pilgrim Society have been carefully examined by the Rev. Dr. Charles C. Forman, pastor of the First Parish [Plymouth], who has contributed the following notes on the evolution of the Geneva Bible, its characteristics and historical importance. Miss Briggs is responsible for the notes on decorative details. THE GENEVA BIBLE : THE BIBLE USED BY THE PILGRIMS Nearly every Pilgrim household possessed a copy of the Bible, usually in the Geneva translation, which is sometimes called the "breeches" Bible because of the quaint translation of Genesis III:7, where it is said that Adam and Eve, realizing their nakedness, "sewed fig leaves together and made themselves breeches." The Geneva Bible occupies a proud place in the history of translations. In order to understand something of its character and significance we must recall earlier attempts at "englishing" the Scriptures.

Eventually, however, Israel failed God, and the parable of the ten virgins and the parable of the talents kingdom was taken from them (Matt. 21:43).

The first parable begins, “At The first preacher in the New Testament was John the that time the kingdom of the heavens will be likened to Baptist, who began his ministry by proclaiming, “Repent, ten virgins” (v. 1). The second begins, “For the kingdom for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn near” (3:2).

  • The Influence of William Tyndale's Translations
    THE AUTHORISED VERSION: The Influence of William Tyndale’s Translations Dr. Jonathan D. Moore 21st May at Magdelan College, Oxford Introduction In this 400th anniversary year of the Authorised Version, it is most fitting that much is said in praise of that climactic English Bible version, and I therefore count it a pleasure as well as an honour that the Trinitarian Bible Society should have invited me to make my own small contribution to this series of commemorative lectures. Yet as great as the Authorised Version may be, even the AV translators themselves indicate in their preface Translators to the Reader that their contribution was not to forge any new path in their production of a new Bible version, but simply, as they put it, ‘to make a good one better, or out of many good ones, one principal good one’.1 If you have a copy of the Authorised Version in front of you, you will see from the title page that the translators, typical of all Renaissance Bible translators, were all the while ‘diligently comparing and revising the former translations’ so that the resulting product was, in their own words not ‘a new Translation’ at all. Overshadowing all these preceding versions was the revolutionary translation work of William Tyndale. It is hard to overstate the deep influence of Tyndale upon all subsequent English Bible translations even up until the 21st century, and this is not simply because he had the first bite at the cherry, but rather that, in the remarkable providence of God, the man raised up to translate the Scriptures from the original Greek and Hebrew into the English tongue for the first time was an eminently godly scholar who was nothing short of a genius and a master of the English language.

    From the Book of Marganitha (The Pearl) On the Truth of Christianity Written by Mar Odisho, Metropolitan of N’siwin and Armenia, A.D. 1298 1 PART I ON GOD 2 CHAPTER I Theory Concerning God That there is a God, and that the world is created, is made, and is temporal. St. Paul the heavenly apostle, the treasury of the Holy Spirit, and the spiritual philosopher, has, through the Spirit, laid an awe-inspiring foundation for Theology, by his saying, that men “should seek God, and feel after Him, and find Him out from His creation.1” The artificer is known by his art, and the maker through the thing made. That the world is made, and created, and that it had a beginning in time is evident from the fact, that it is compounded, framed and regulated as a whole, and in all its parts. Everything that is compounded, framed and regulated must have a compounder, framer and regulator. That it is compounded is proved from its whole being made up of many parts, and from all its bodies being made up of matter and species, and from the visible and invisible movers therein. But the most certain witness, of its being framed is man, who is a small world in himself, and in whose formation all creation is brought together, as one of the sages has 1 Acts 17:27. 3 said: “Man is an epitome of the whole world, and of the whole frame of creation.” That the world is regulated is clear from the wonderful order of the heavens, the planets, the elements, with all their productive powers, generating plants, trees, mines, and the members of beasts and of men, the astonishing order of which surpasses the wisdom and knowledge of all created beings.
