LEIGHTON PULLAN Fellow and Tutor of St. John Baptist's College, Oxford. "If you choose to obey your Bibles, you will never care who attacks them."--RUSKIN. Fourth Edition Revised Rivingtons 34 King Street, Covent Garden London 1912 {v} PREFACE This book is intended to meet the widely prevalent need of an introduction to the New Testament which is neither a mere hand-book nor an elaborate treatise for specialists. It is written in a conservative spirit, and at the same time an ample use has been made of recent critical investigation. It has been impossible to give an exhaustive proof of the position maintained, but no matter of great importance has been overlooked. The arguments will be intelligible to educated persons who are unacquainted with the Greek language. The author has sometimes derived much help from the articles in Dr. Hastings' _Dictionary of the Bible_. The dates which have been adopted are in most cases those adopted in {vi} that Dictionary by Dr. Sanday and Mr. C. H. Turner. His best thanks are due to the Rev. E. W. Pullan, Mr. J. F. Briscoe, and Mr. E. W. Corbett, for the kind help which they have given him in the preparation of the book. {vii} CONTENTS CHAPTER PAGE TABLE OF APPROXIMATE DATES . . . . . . . . . . . . . x I.
