In this edition the large type represents the agreement of the Revised and
Authorised Versions. When the two Versions differ, the renderings of both are
printed in small type those of the Revised Version in the upper line, and those
;

of the Authorised Version in the lower line. A blank in the upper or lower line
indicates the absence of any corresponding words in the Revised Version or the
Authorised Version respectively. Thus the large type read in conjunction with
the upper line of small type gives the continuous text of the Revised Version, and
read in conjunction with the lower line of small type it gives the continuous text
of the Authorised Version.
Where the variations could not conveniently be indicated by the use of upper
and lower lines, they have been pointed out by other means, such as the insertion
of the words "[^. F. only".
With the exceptions specified below, all the variations have been exhibited,
including those of spelling and punctuation. In the case of variations of punctua-
tion, the word preceding the stop has been twice printed for the sake of clearness
even when it is identical in the two Versions : thus in Luke i. 3 the upper
line " Theophilus " shews the punctuation of the Revised Version, the lower
;

line "Theophilus," that of the Authorised Version.


The variations which have not been exhibited are as follows :

(1) Variations of arrangement. The division of the text into paragraphs


adopted in the R.V. has been followed, with the consequent changes in the use
of capitals at the beginning of verses, and the omission of the paragraph marks (IF)
of the A.V.
In the poetical books and passages the arrangement of the R.V. in lines, to
exhibit the parallelism which is characteristic of Hebrew poetry, has been followed,
with similar consequent changes.
The spaces by which a change of subject is indicated in the R.V. also appear
without notice.
(2) Matter which forms no part of the text. The headings of the chapters
and the headlines of the pages which appear in the A.V. are not given in this
edition.
(3) The use of italics. When the only difference between the two Versions
consists in the use of italic or roman type, the Revised Version has been followed.
To have recorded every variation of this kind would have been to produce an
entirely false impression as to the amount of difference between the two Versions.
The italics of modern editions of the A.V. are largely due to later editors and
not to the translators of 1611 nor is the use of them by any means consistent.
;

The principle which guided the Revisers was, as may be gathered from their
Prefaces, to print in ordinary type all words which are plainly implied in the
original language and are necessary in English, and to reserve the use of italics
for words which do not appear to be distinctly involved in the original.
The central references are those of the edition of the R.V. with references
published by the University Presses in 1898. For all explanations the reader is
referred to the Preface prefixed to that edition, which is reprinted at the beginning
of this book (p. vii).
The marginal notes of the Revised Version, which form an important part of
the Revisers' work, and should by no means be neglected, appear at the foot of
the pages with figures prefixed those of the Authorised Version are placed below
:

PREFACE TO THE EDITION WITH MARGINAL


REFERENCES.

The Companies appointed for the Revision of the Old and New Testaments had
the question of marginal references under consideration at an early period in the
course of their work. Thej submitted it to two small Committees, one from each
Company, who were requested to confer and report to the Companies. The Com-
mittee of the Old Testament Company were of opinion that, until it was known
whether the Revised Version would be accepted, it would be premature to furnish it

with marginal references, and no further steps were taken by them. The Committee
of the New Testament Compa,ny, however, the active members of which were
Dr. Scrivener and Dr. Moulton, compiled a very elaborate body of marginal references
for the New Testament, which were printed for the use of the Company, but for
which the Committee alone were responsible.
In preparing these references the Committee were allowed by the Syndics of the
Cambridge University Press to make use of the references in the Paragraph Bible
edited for them by Dr. Scrivener in 1873. The references so prepared were submitted
to the Company, who expressed a general a^pproval of them, but resolved to issue the
Revised Version of the New Testament in the first instance without any marginal
references, except such as had already been inserted by them.At the same time they
conveyed to the University Presses of Oxford and Cambridge their earnest wish
that, in consideration of the labour care and thought bestowed iipon these references,

a place might be found for them in their integrity in some editions of the Revised
Version. It was therefore agreed by the University Presses to print one edition at
least of the Revised Version of the New Testament with the marginal references
prepared by the Committee of the New Testament Company of Revisers. After
the death of Dr. Scrivener the task of final revision and verification remained in
Dr. Moulton's hands, but owing to unforeseen delays it had not been completed at
the time of his death in February, 1898.
In 1895 the University Presses undertook to meet the increasing demand, both
at home and in America, for an edition of the complete Revised Version with marginal
references. A Committee was appointed to superintend the work, consisting of the

PREFACE TO THE EDITION


Rev. Dr. Price, Master of Pembroke College, Oxford ; the Ven. Dr. Palmer, Archdeacon
of Oxford ; Dr. W. Aldis Wright, Vice-Master of Trinity College, Cambridge ; and the
Rev. Dr. Kirkpatrick, Regius Professor of Hebrew in the University of Cambridge.
On Archdeacon Palmer's death in October 1895, the Rev. Dr. Ince, Regius Professor
of Divinity in the University of Oxford, succeeded to his place on the Committee.
The general editorship was entrusted to the Rev. Dr. Stokoe of Lincoln College,
Oxford, and the following scholars were appointed to assist him in preparing the
references for the Old Testament and Apocrypha ; the Rev. Dr. Barnes, Fellow of
Peterhouse, Cambridge ; the Rev. A. W. Greenup, St John's College, Cambridge
the Rev. E. R. Massey, Exeter College, Oxford ; and the Rev. J. W. Nutt, late
Fellow of All Souls' College, Oxford. In regard to the New Testament references
Dr. Stokoe was instructed to confer with Dr. Moulton, who undertook to adapt for
this edition the fuller body of references upon which he had been engaged. Since
Dr. Moulton's death, this part of the work has been completed, under the Editor's
supervision, by the Rev. J. H. Moulton, late Fellow of King's College, Cambridge,
and the Rev. A. "W. Greenup, both of whom had already been assisting Dr. Moulton.
The marginal references given in the original edition of the Authorised Version
of 1611 have been retained as far as possible, and the Contributors have availed
themselves largely of the references in Dr. Scrivener's Paragraph Bible, which they
were instructed to make the basis of their work.

The references given may be arranged under the following heads :

1. Quotations, or exact verbal parallels.


2. Passages referred to for similarity of idea or of expression.
3. Passages referred to by way of explanation or illustration.
4. Historical and Geographical references: —names of persons, places, etc.,

which recur.

5. Passages referred to as illustrating differences of rendering between th^


Authorised and Revised Versions.

The following modes of indication have been used :

1. A simple index letter is employed, when there is an exact or close parallel

between the passages.


2. " Cited ", or " Cited from ", is prefixed to cases of actual quotation.
3. " Cp." (compare) is prefixed to references, when the parallel is less exact.

4. " See " is prefixed :

{a) When reference is made to a parallel passage, on which a body of


references has been collected :

(b) In referring to longer passages, parallel or explanatory. When one


longer passage given as a parallel to another of similar length, the
is

mode of indication is " For &c., see &c.".


5. "aZ." ( = alibi, elsewhere) is added to indicate that all the parallel passages
are not given.

6. "(?)" is placed after a reference, when its appropriateness is doubtful.
7. "(mg.)", "(& mg.y, "(for mg.)", "(mg. for mg.)" are used when references
relate solely or partly to the Revisers' marginal renderings.

When several references are given, with different modes of indication, they arc
ai-ranged -in this order :

1. References with simple index letter


2. J,
which have " Cited " or " Cited from" prefixed :

2. „ to other passages in the same Book


3. „ to passages in other Books, according to the order of these Books
in the Bible.

The Revisers' marginal renderings are transferred in this edition to the foot of
the page, together with all other notes in the margin of the Revised Version,
except :

(a) When simple references given by the Revisers have been incorporated
in the new body of references

(6) When a marginal note refers to some difiPerent division or order in the
original.

In previous editions of the Revised Version the numbers of the verses were
placed on the inner margin of each page.

PREFACE OF THE REVISERS OF THE OLD TESTAMENT,

The Eevision of the Authorised Version was undertaken in consequence of a


Resokition passed by both houses of the Convocation of the Province of Canterbury,
as has been fully explained in the Preface to the Revised Version of the New
Testament, which was first published in May 1881. When the two Companies were
appointed for carrying out this work, the following General Principles, among others,
were laid down by the Revision Committee of Convocation for their guidance :

'1. To introduce as few alterations as possible into the Text of the Authorised
Version consistently with faithfulness.'
*
2. To limit, as far as possible, the expression of such alterations to the language
of the Authorised and earlier English Versions.'
'4. That the Text to be adopted be that for which the evidence is decidedly
preponderating; and that when the Text so adopted differs from that from which
the Authorised Version was made, the alteration be indicated in the margin*.'
'7. To revise the headings of chapters and pages, paragraphs, italics, and
punctuation.'
In order to shew the manner in which the Old Testament Company have en-
deavoured to carry out their instructions, it will be convenient to treat the subjects
mentioned in the foregoing rules in a somewhat different order.
It will be observed that in Rule 4 the word Text is used in a different sense
'
'

from that in Rule 1, and in the case of the Old Testament denotes the Hebrew or
Aramaic original of the several books. In this respect the task of the Revisers has
been much simpler than that which the New Testament Company had before them.
The Received, or, as it is commonly called, the Massoretic Text of the Old Testament
Scrijptures has come down to us in manuscripts which are of no very great antiquity,
and which all belong to the same family or recension i. That other recensions were
at one time in existence is probable from the variations in the Ancient Versions, the
oldest of which, namely the Greek or Septuagint, was made, at least in part, some
two centuries before the Christian era. But as the state of knowledge on the
subject is not at present such as to justify any attempt at an entire reconstruction
of the text on the authority of the Versions, the Revisers have thought it most
prudent to adopt the Massoretic Text as the basis of their work, and to depart from
it, as the Authorised Translators had done 2, only in exceptional cases. With regard
to the variations in the Massoretic Text itself, the Revisers have endeavoured to
translate what appeared to them to be the best reading in the text, and where the
alternative reading seemed sufficiently probable or important they have placed it in

PREFACE OF THE REVISERS

the margin. In some few instances of. extreme difficulty a reading has been adopted
on the authority of the Ancient Versions, and the departure from the Massoretic
Text recorded in the margin. In other cases, where the versions appeared to supply
a veiy probable though not so necessary a correction of the text, the text has been
left and the variation indicated in the margin only.
In endeavouring to carry out as fully as possible the spirit of Rules 1 and 2, the
Revisers have borne in mind that it was their duty not to make a new translation
but to revise one already existing, which for more than two centuries and a half had
held the position of an English classic. They have therefore departed from it only
in cases where they disagreed with the Translators of 1611 as to the meaning or
construction of a word or sentence; or where it was necessary for the sake of
uniformity to render such parallel passages as were identical in Hebrew by the same
English words, so that an English reader might know at once by comparison that
a difference in the translation corresponded to a difference in the original ; or where
the language of the Authorised Version was liable to be misunderstood by reason of
its being archaic or obscure; or finally, where the rendering of an earlier English
version seemed preferable, or where by an apparently slight change it was possible
to bring out more fully the meaning of a passage of which the translation was
already substantially accurate.
It has been thought advisable in regard to the word * Jehovah' to follow the
usage of the Authorised Version, and not to insert it uniformly in place of Lord
*
'

or '
God ', which when printed in small capitals represent the words substituted by
Jewish custom for the ineffable Name according to the vowel points by which it
is distinguished. It will be found therefore that in this respect the Authorised
Version has been departed from only in a few passages, in which the introduction of
a proper name seemed to be required.
Terms of natural history have been changed only where it was certain that the
Authorised Version was incorrect and where there was sufficient evidence for the
substituted rendering. In cases of doubt the alternative rendering has been given
in the margin ; and even where no doubt existed, but where there was no familiar
English equivalent for the original word, the Old Version has been allowed to
remain 1, and the more accurate term has been placed in the margin.
In some words of very frequent occurrence, the Authorised Version being either
inadequate or inconsistent, and sometimes misleading, changes have been introduced
with as much uniformity as appeared practicable or desirable. For instance, ' the
tabernacle of the congregation has been everywhere changed to 'the tent of meeting',
'

on account of Exodus xxv. 22, xxix. 42, 43, and also because 'the tabernacle of the
congregation conveys an entirely wrong sense.
' The words tabernacle and tent ', '
'
'

as the renderings of two different Hebrew words, are in the Authorised Version
frequently interchanged in such a manner as to lead to confusion ; and the Revisers
have endeavoured throughout the Pentateuch to preserve a consistent distinction
between them. Their practice in regard to the words 'assembly' and 'congregation'
has been the same in principle, although they have contented themselves with
introducing greater consistency of rendering without aiming at absolute uni-
formity. In consequence of the changes which have taken place in the English
language, the term ' meat offering has become inappropriate to describe an offering
'

of which flesh was no part and by the alteration to ' meal offering ' a sufficiently
;

accurate representation of the original has been obtained with the least possible
change of form.
As regards the use of words, there are only a few cases in which it has been
found needful to deviate from the language employed in the Authorised Version.
One of these deviations occurs so frequently that it may be well to state briefly why
it was adopted. The word 'peoples' was nowhere used by King James's Translators
in the Old Testament, and in the New Testament it occurs only twice (Rev. x. 11,
xvii. 15). The effect of this was to leave the rendering of numerous passages

1 As for instance, '


coney (Lev.
' xi. 5), '
fitches '
(Is. xxviii. 25, 27), '
gourd (Jon.
' iv, 6).

;'

OF THE OLD TESTAMENT.

inadequate or obscure or even positively misleading. Thus in one of the best known
Psalms (Ps. Ixvii.), where the Septuagint has Xaot. and the Vulgate populi, the
English had Let the people praise thee, O God let all the people praise thee
'
;
'

leaving it at least doubtful whether the 'nations' of verse 4, or God's people, Israel,
be referred to. And in Isaiah Iv. 4, Behold, I have given him for a witness to the
'.

people, a leader and commander to the people', the word 'people' is naturally
understood by the English reader to refer to Israel,
Again, the Hebrew word goyim 'nations', which is applied to the nations of
Canaan dispossessed by the Hebrews, and then also to the surrounding nations
among whom the people of Israel were afterwards dispersed, acquired in later times
a moral significance, which is represented in the Authorised Version by the ren-
dering heathen or Gentiles
'
'
' While recognizing this moral sense of the word, the
'.

Revisers have employed it much more sparingly than their predecessors had done.
Similarly, the Hebrew Sheol^ which signifies the abode of departed spirits, and
corresponds to the -Greek Hades, or the under world, is variously rendered in the
Authorised Version by grave ', pit ', and hell '. Of these renderings ' hell ', if it
' ' '

could be taken in its original sense as used in the Greeds, would be a fairly adequate
equivalent for the Hebrew word but it is so commonly understood of the place of
;

torment that to employ it frequently would lead to inevitable misunderstanding.


The Revisers therefore in the historical narratives have left the rendering Hhe
grave or the pit in the text, with a marginal note Heb. Sheol to indicate that it
'
'
'
' '

does not signify 'the place of burial'; while in the poetical writings they have put
most commonly ' Sheol in the text and ' the grave in the margin. In Isaiah xiv,
' '

however, where 'hell' is used in more of its original sense and is less liable to
be misunderstood, and where any change in so familiar a passage which was not
distinctly an improvement would be a decided loss, the Revisers have contented
themselves with leaving hell in the text, and have connected it with other passages
' '

by putting Sheol in the margin.


'
'

In connexion with this it may be mentioned that 'Abaddon', which has hitherto
been known to the English reader of the Bible only from the New Testament
(Rev. ix. 11), has been introduced in three passages (Job xxvi. 6; Prov. xv. 11,
xxvii. 20), where a proper name appears to be required for giving vividness and point.
The Hebrew word Asherah, which is uniformly and wrongly rendered grove in '
'

the Authorised Version, most probably denotes the wooden symbol of a goddess;
and the Revisers therefore have not hesitated to introduce it as a proper name
in the singular (Judg. vi. 25, &c.), with the plurals Asherim (Ex. xxxiv. 13, &c.) and
Asheroth (Judg. iii. 7, &c.), following the analogy of the Baalim (Judg. iii. 7) and the
Ashtaroth (Judg, ii, 13), which are already familiar.
In regard to the language of the Authorised Version, the Revisers have thought
it no part of their duty to reduce it to conformity with modern usage, and have
therefore left untouched all archaisms, whether of language or construction, which
though not in familiar use cause a reader no embarrassment and lead to no mis-
understanding. They are aware that in so doing they will disappoint the large
English-speaking race on the other side of the Atlantic, and it is a question upon
which they are prepared to agree to a friendly difference of opinion. The principle
by which they have been guided has been clear and consistent. Where an archaic
word or expression was liable to be misunderstood or at least was not perfectly
intelligible, they have substituted for it another, in equally good use at the time
the Authorised Version was made, and expressing all that the archaism was intended
to convey, but more familiar to the modern reader. In such cases the gain was
greater than the loss. But in other instances where the word or expression, although
obsolete, was not unintelligible, it was thought that the change would involve
greater loss than gain, and the old rendering was therefore allowed to stand. More
especially was this the case when the archaism was a perfectly correct rendering of
the original and there was no exact modern equivalent for it. The principle adopted
by the Company will be best illustrated by two typical examples. The verb to ear '

in the sense of to plough and the substantive earing for ploughing were very
'

' '

XV
PREFACE OF THE REVISEES

reluctantly abandoned, and only because it was ascertained that their meaning was
unknown to many persons of good intelligence and education. But it was easy to
put in their place equivalents which had a pedigree of almost equal antiquity, and it
would have been an excess of conservatism to refuse to substitute for an unintelligible
archaism an expression to which no ambiguity could be attached. On the other
hand the word 'boiled' (Ex. ix. 31), which signifies 'podded for seed' and is known
in provincial dialects, has no synonym in literary English. To have discarded it in
favour of a less accurate or more paraphrastic expression would have been to
impoverish the language; and it was therefore left,. because it exactly expresses one
view which is taken of the meaning of the original.
One of the few instances in which the language of the Authorised Version has
been modified in accordance with later usage is the change of the neuter possessive
pronoun from his to its '. It is well known that ' its does not occur in the Bible
'
'
'
'

of 1611, and it does not appear to have been introduced into any edition before 1660.
But it is found ten times in Shakespeare, and there is other evidence to shew that at
the time of the Authorised Version it was coming into use. It was found necessary
in some cases to substitute 'its' for 'his' in order to avoid obscurity, and there
seemed no good reason, when it was once introduced, for refusing to admit it
generally when it referred to purely inanimate objects.
In making minor changes, whether in translation or language, the Revisers have
followed the example of the translators of the Authorised Version, who allowed
themselves in this respect a reasonable freedom, without permitting their liberty to
degenerate into license.
It will be at once seen that the old division of the books into chapters and verses
has been abandoned in favour of the arrangement in paragraphs, the numbering of
the chapters and verses being however retained for convenience of reference. Where
the change of subject seemed to require a greater break than was marked by the
beginning of a new paragraph, it has been indicated by a space before the paragraph.
Occasionally the divisions of the chapters in the Authorised Version difier from
those in the common Hebrew Bibles. In such cases the variations are given in the
margin. In the Psalms, the titles are printed in smaller type, as in some modern
English Bibles, which difier in this respect from the edition of 1611. One con-
sequence of the arrangement in paragraphs has been the omission of the headings of
chapters, which for other and more important reasons it was thought advisable to
abandon, as involving questions which belong rather to the province of the com-
mentator than to that of the translator. With the headings of chapters the
head-lines of pages naturally disappeared also, and for the same reason.
In the poetical portions, besides the division into paragraphs, the Revisers have
adopted an arrangement in lines, so as to exhibit the jDarallelism which is character-
istic of Hebrew Poetry. But they have not extended this arrangement to the
prophetical books, the language of which although frequently marked by parallelism
is, except in purely lyrical passages, rather of the nature of lofty and impassioned

prose.
In the use of italics the Revisers departed from the custom of the Authorised
Version and adopted as their rule the following resolution of their Company :

* That all such words now printed in italics, as are plainly implied in the Hebrew

and necessary in English, be printed in common type.'


But where any doubt existed as to the exact rendering of the Hebrew, all words
which have been added in order to give completeness to the English expression are
printed in italic type, so that the reader by omitting them may be able to see how
far their insertion is justified by the words of the original. This of course is
especially true of those renderings for which an alternative is given in the margin,
where the roman and italic type play exactly opposite parts.
To complete the account of the Revised Version it remains only to describe the
marginal notes. These will be found to contain
(1) The renderings of such variations in the Massoretic Text as appeared to be
of sufficient importance. These variations are known by the technical names of

XVI
OF THE OLD TESTAMENT.

K'ri {read) and C'thib {loritten), which denote that the K'ri, or reading in the margin
of the Hebrew Bible, is to be substituted for the C'thib which appears in the written
text. The Revisers have generally, though not uniformly, rendered the C'thib in
the text, and left the K'ri in the margin, with the introductory note ' Or, according
to another reading', or 'Another reading is'. When the K'ri has been followed
in the text, the C'thib has been placed in the margin, if it represented a variation of
sufficient importance.
(2) Alternative renderings, introduced by 'Or'. These are either different
meanings of the word or passage, or they serve to connect it with other renderings
elsewhere.
(3) Literal renderings of the Hebrew or Aramaic, indicated by the prefix * Heb.'
or 'Aram.'
(4) Changes of text made on the authority of the ancient Versions.
(5) Readings from ancient Versions which appeared to be of sufficient im-
portance to be noticed.
(6) Renderings of the Hebrew consonants as read with different vowel points, or
as differently divided. These are introduced by the words ' Or, as otherwise read '.
(7) Marginal references to other passages, which are either strictly parallel, or
serve the purpose of illustrating or justifying a particular rendering.
(8) Explanations of certain proper names, the meaning of which is referred to
in the text.
In the Proper Names the Revisers have endeavoured to ascertain the system of
transliteration adopted by the Translators of the Authorised Version and to carry
it out with somewhat greater consistency. They have not however attempted
anything like rigid uniformity, and have left unchanged all those names which by
usage have become English; as, for instance, Moses, Aaron, Isaiah, Jeremiah,
Ezekiel, and the like.
Among the Rules laid down by the Revision Committee of Convocation for the
guidance of the Revisers was one that no change should be finally made in the text
of the Authorised Version except by the vote of two- thirds of the Company present
and voting; and this Rule has been invariably acted upon. The result has been
that in many cases a rendering which was preferred by the majority of the Company
voting has been recorded in the margin, the majority not being sufficient to give it
a place in the text. But all questions of marginal readings, a^s well as of punctuation
and division into paragraphs, except where these affected the sense of a passage,
were decided by a simple majority.
It may be of some interest to describe the method observed by the Company in
their work, if only to shew that every question raised was carefully and deliberately
considered. In the first Revision it was the practice for the Secretary to read over
each verse, first in the original and then in the Authorised Version the proposals
:

for change were then taken first those communicated in writing by absent members,
;

and next those made by the members present. Each proposal was moved, and if
seconded was discussed and voted upon the decision in the first Revision being by
;

a majority only. If a proposal met with no seconder, it was not discussed but
allowed to drop. In the second Revision, the Secretary read out in order the
changes which had been made at the first Revision ; if these were unchallenged they
were allowed to remain, otherwise they were put to the vote and affirmed or rejected
according as they were or were not supported by the requisite majority of two-
thirds. In the second Revision new propositions could only be made by special
permission of the Company, and discussion was limited, as far as possible, to
exceptional cases. In the final review, which was in reality the completion of the
second Revision, the Company employed themselves in making a general survey of
what they had done, deciding finally upon reserved i3oints, harmonizing inconsisten-
cies, smoothing down roughnesses, removing unnecessary changes, and generally
giving finish and completeness to their work. Everything in this final survey was
decided by the vote of a majority of two-thirds.
The Revisers had already made some progress, and had in fact gone twice

through the Pentateuch, before they secured the co-operation of the American Old
Testament Revision Company. The first Revision of the several books was sub-
mitted to the consideration of the American Revisers, and, except in the case of the
Pentateuch, the English Company had the benefit of their criticisms and suggestions
before they proceeded to the second Revision. The second Revision was in like
manner forwarded to America, and the latest thoughts of the American Revisers
were in the hands of the English Company at their final review. In every instance
the suggestions from America were treated with the same consideration as those
proceeding from members of the English Company, and were adopted or rejected on
their merits. It was a part of the terms of agreement with the American Company
that all points of ultimate difference between them and the English Revisers should
be placed on record, and they will accordingly be found fully stated at the end
of the Old Testament, or at the end of the several portions, according as the Revised
Version appears in one or more volumes. Many of them will be found to be
changes of language which are involved in the essentially difierent circumstances
of American and English readers; others express a preference for the marginal
rendering over that given in the text; others again involve a real difference of
opinion but all shew that they have been dictated by the same leading x^rinciple,
;

the sincere desire to give to modern readers a faithful representation of the meaning
of the original documents-
It could not but be expected that in the course of fourteen years many changes
would take place in the members of the Company. Of the original number who
first put their hands to the work on the 30th of June 1870, only fifteen now remain.
Ten of the Company have been removed by death, and two resigned the places of
:

these were filled from time to time by others; but since October 1875 no new
members have been added. The Revision was completed in eighty-five sessions,
ending on 20th June, 1884; and it occupied 792 days. The greater part of the
sessions were for ten days each, and each day the Company generally sat for six
hours. The labour therefore has been great, but it has been given ungrudgingly;
and now with a feeling of deep thankfulness to Almighty God, and the earnest hope
that their endeavours may with His blessing tend to a clearer knowledge of the
Old Testament Scriptures, the Revisers bring their long task to a close.
