Publisher description
Excerpt from Origin and History of the Books of the New Testament, Both the Canonical and the Apocraphal: Designed to Show What the Bible Is Not, What It Is and How to Use It The purpose of this volume can best be shown by a familiar illustration: I purchase several different parcels of real estate in the city of Hartford, and wish to ascertain the validity of my title to each one of the parcels. I take the deeds to the registrar's office and there trace each one by itself through all the preceding purchasers till I come to the title derived from the original proprietors. If there is no break in this chain of documentary evidence the title is perfect. So each one of the books of the New Testament must be traced up to the Apostles, who only had authority to deliver inspired books to the churches. This is what the present volume professes to do. It is a book of authorities and testimonies; it is the tracing and veryfying of title-deeds. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
