The Catholic Student's "Aids" To the Study of the Bible, Vol. 2: The New Testament (the Gospels) (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from The Catholic Student's "Aids" To the Study of the Bible, Vol. 2: The New Testament (the Gospels)

Aids which the author has given us, and I feel sure that all who have read the first part - dealing with the Old Testa ment - will gi\e a cordial welcome to its successor. They already know the value of the help afforded by Father Pope's full knowledge of the Text of the Holy Scriptures, his firm grasp of the various modern difficulties regarding Holy Writ and his clear exposition of the truth of Catholic teaching. They thus know what to look for in the present volume, which deals with the Holy Gospels, and I con fidently predict that after reading it they will not be dis appointed. In these busy days some such work as this for the use~of Catholic priests, teachers, 'and for Catholic readers generally is a real blessing. Few even of the clergy have the leisure or the Opportunity to study the many ques tions as to the Holy Bible, which are constantly appearing in various guises, and yet most of us feel that we ought to know what is the strength or weakness of this or that objection and be able to give some account of the faith that is in us.

Excerpt from The Catholic Student's "Aids" To the Study of the Bible, Vol. 2: The New Testament (the Gospels)

In them we find all that any student can want to help him to understand and appreciate the various Gospels. To take the Gospel of St. Matthew as an example, we have sections dealing with the Life of the Evangelist, the authenticity of the Gospel, its historical trustworthiness, with a discussion of recent views and a treatment of the question of the Gospel according to the H ebrews. Then we are given the divi sions and Analysis of the Gospel, the passages peculiar to St. Matthew, the theological teaching to be found in it, etc.

With full confidence, then, I wish this useful manual every success, and I am sure that those who will make use of it will feel as grateful to Father Pope for all his trouble - and that cannot have been slight - in giving us these Aids as I do myself.
