Excerpt from The Epistles of St. Paul to the Corinthians, Vol. 1 of 2: With Critical Notes and DissertationsYet further, it has been attempted to follow out, not only the train of argument and the construction of sentences, but the image presented by each separate word. N ever was there a truer description of any style than that which Luther gives of the style of the Apostle: The words of St. Paul are not dead words they are living creatures, and have hands and feet. Each word has, as it were, a law, a life, a force of its own. It has grown up under the shade of some ad jacent argument, or it has been tinged with the colour ing of its Hebrew original, or of some neighbouring pas sage in the version of the Seventy, or has been animated with a vigour before unknown, through the Christian and Apostolical use to which it is now for the first time applied. And it propagates itself through new sen tenoes, words, paragraphs, chapters grown out of it as out of some prolific seed of the natural world.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
