The Parallel New Testament, Greek and English. (Oxford Univer- sity

Press.)—It will be a sufficient recommendation of this volume if we briefly describe it. The left-hand pages contain in parallel columns the Authorised Version and the Revised Version. The former is printed as it appeared in 1611, with references and marginal notes, the latter with the Revisers' marginal notes. The right-hand pages contain the Greek Text, from which the Revisers translated, as it was edited by Archdeacon Palmer. In a parallel column stand the readings of the Textus Receptus which were displaced. The Revisers' preface is prefixed.
