A little over a hundred years ago, Dr. Albert Schweitzer set forth
the definitive survey of studies into the historical Jesus up to
that point. His book, originally in German, was a major event that
reverberates to this day. Even though many people will find his
conclusions objectionable, the book needs to be on the shelf of any
serious Bible scholar. This edition is based on the first English
edition, translated by W. Montgomery. A foreword puts Dr.
Schweitzer's book in the context of the hundred years of research
into the 'historical Jesus' that has followed the publication of
the book. This edition also includes an 8 page index to aid the
serious researcher.
Originally published in 1930, this book contains the last of three
volumes on the origin and progress of the Christian faith from its
origins in Judaism until the early twentieth century. Volume three
reviews the current status of Church doctrine and methods of
worship, particularly in England, and examines the Church's
on-going tasks in the world, with particular reference to other
religions. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in
the history of Christianity and the Church's role in the lives of
its devotees.
Francis Crawford Burkitt (1864-1935) was a prominent theologian and
biblical scholar. Originally published in 1932, this book contains
the substance of five lectures delivered by Burkitt during October
1931 at Union Theological Seminary, New York, as the Morse Lectures
for that year. Various aspects of the relationship between Church
doctrine and Gnostic thought are discussed, providing a highly
informative analysis of a complicated topic. Rigorous and
thought-provoking, this text will be of value to anyone with an
interest in the early development of Christianity and biblical
scholarship in general.
Originally published in 1895, the aim of this book was to provide
the reader with a guide to the contemporary spoken Arabic of Egypt,
with special reference to the speech of Cairo and its
neighbourhood. The greater part of the text provides the reader
with the basic grammatical structure of the language. Additionally,
there is a concise introduction explaining the different varieties
of spoken Arabic in their relationship with Classical Arabic.
Reading exercises and a sizeable glossary are contained towards the
end of the text. This book will be of value to anyone with an
interest in Arabic and the history of linguistics.
