The Epistle to the Romans

Epistle to the Romans, when his sacred task is over, is Uttle disposed to speak about his Commentary; he is occupied rather with an ever deeper reverence and wonder over the Text which he has been permitted to handle, a Text so full of a marvellous man, above all so full of God. But it seems needful to say a few words about the style of the running Translation of the Epistle which will be found interwoven with this Exposition. The writer is aware that the translation is often rough and formless. His apology is that it has been done with a view not to a connected reading but to the explanation of details. A rough piece of rendering, which would be a misrepresentation in a continuous version, because it would be out of scale with the general style, seems to be another matter when it only calls the readers attention to a particular point presented for study at the moment. A gain, he is aware that his rendering of the Greek article in many passages (for example, where he has ventured to explain it by our, true, etc.) is open to criticism.
