London: C. J. CLAY AND SON, CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS WAREHOUSE, 17, PATERNOSter Row. Cambridge: DEIGHTON, BELL AND CO. IN EPISTOLAS B. PAULI COMMENTARII. THE LATIN VERSION WITH THE GREEK FRAGMENTS. WITH AN INTRODUCTION NOTES AND INDICES. BY H. B. SWETE, D.D., RECTOR OF ASHDON, ESSEX; LATE SENIOR FELLOW OF GONVILLE AND CAIUS COLLEGE, CAmbridge. [The rights of translation and reproduction are reserved.] PREFACE. THE issue of this volume has been postponed in consequence of the additional labour involved in the preparation of Appendix A. I trust that the delay may be justified by the convenience which will attend the binding up of the Interpreter's directly dogmatic utterances with the remains of his Commentary on ten of the Pauline Epistles. I have been compelled to relinquish the hope of printing a list of variants which Cardinal Pitra had offered to supply from a third MS. of the Latin translation (cf. I. xv. n.). The Cardinal has recently written to express his regret that he is unable to furnish the information. His withdrawal is the more unfortunate, as he is not at liberty to reveal the present locality of the MS. Among the notices which the first volume has received in England and in Germany I have observed but one which offers any suggestions for the further emendation of the text. These criticisms, which are from the pen of Professor J. L. Jacobi, have been incorporated, as far as I have been able to accept them, among the additions and corrections which follow the Commentary. 294948 |
