This translation of the Pauline epistles can rightly be included in
the category of Bible translations that strive to achieve both an
accurate rendering of the individual words and the conceptual
meaning transcending the languages. As Arthur S. Way, writes in his
original Preface, ..". I have endeavored to put my readers in the
place of those who first listened to these letters." Sanders, a
classical scholar, translator, and headmaster published
translations of both The Odyssey of Homer, Done into English Verse;
and The Iliad of Homer, as well as works done by some twenty
different Latin and Greek writers. The most important of his works,
though, is this translation of the epistles. Way incorporates a
brief introduction to each of the church epistles, including
background details and in some cases the subjects covered. These
opening expositions further enlighten and guide the reader as they
study the all important letters.
