The Ferrar Fenton New Testament in Modern English (Enlarged Type)
Description:
Title: The Holy Bible in Modern English (1909) Subtitle: Commonly Known as the Ferrar Fenton Bible Author: by Ferrar Fenton (1832-1920) Description: Translates Matthew 25:46 as: "And these He will dismiss into a long correction, but the well-doers to an enduring life." Fenton explained how he came to take up this arduous work: "In the year 1853 there was a resolve to study the Bible absolutely in its original languages, to ascertain what its writers actually said and taught. I at once threw myself into the stream of the suggestion and registered a vow that I would never again read the Scriptures in any language but Greek and Hebrew, until I had learned to think in those languages and they had become as familiar to me as the dictation of an English newspaper." THIS IS A FACSIMILE.
