Tlie ilext of the principal controverted passages in which the I . V . departs from Newcome is , 1 Cot . i . 2 . to all that in every place are called by ihe name of our Lord Jesus Christ , ' instead of
call upon the name , * in which Newcome agrees with the common rendering . We have already stated , in a general manner our opinion respecting this mode of rendering : but it is a noint of
so liiuch moment , and on which so much stress is laid by some , that we proposed to consider it lierc more minutely . Our examination of it has , however , extended so much beyond our expectations ? that we must refer our readers for it to the head of
Biblical Criticism * , We have endeavoured in it to keep in view that class of thinking readers of the N . T . who do not possess much of any acquaintance with the original . 1 Cor . xv . 47- we have already noticed , ( b . 158 . cot . - % ;}' 4

this passage , ' deceivers , and yet true ; as unknown , and y £ t well known ; as dying , and behold we live ; as chastened , arid not killed ; as grieving , yet always rejoicing ; tts poor , y&
making many rich ; as having nothing , and yet possessing all things / Eph . iii . 10 . ' and to know the surpassing love of the knowledge of Christ , ' rests solely for its justification upon the
transposition Of Tfj s yvcucrewgy which is greatly deficient in evidence . We prefer therefore a literal rendering according to the R . T . ' and to know what indeed surpasseth knowledge , the- love of Christ / i . ej the love manifested in th « Christian dispensation *
