THE NEW TESTAMENT
THE first books of the New Testament "read in churches"
with the Old Testament selections, were apostolic letters,
notably' those of Paul, and including generally, though not
inv ariably, the longer epistles, of John, Peter and James.
"" When the Gospels appeared they were imme
diately used in like fashion, and at once as
sumed a place of priority, not because any one
in authority said it must be so but because
they were so important and so interesting.
For a good while there was no attempt to
make complete collections. Few churches had
all the New Testament books and many had
other books, as the Epistle of Clement and the
Shepherd of Hernias, which were loved.
When discussion began as tc which books
ought to be read regularly, there was immedi
Bruce B?rton ate agreement on the most important ones,
the four Gospels and the larger epistles. There was a good
deal of doubt about Revelation and Second Peter and the two
short epistles of John, which were relatively unimportant, as
was then acknowledged and is still evident. But gradually
there came to be agreement, not by authority but by the test
of general usage, and the translation, and later the printing
of the Bible, finally fixed the list.
If any one asks whether we know absolutely that every
book in the Old and New Testaments is holy above all other
books, the answer is, We do not. ? No one can say that Esther,
which is in the Bible, is nobler than Ecclesiasticus, which has
been dropped out ; certainly it is not so religious or so sweet
in its spirit. No one can say that the Epistle of Judc is more
inspired than the Epistle of Clement. The mountain range
of the Bible shades off intc foot-hills, and we do not know
just where the range begins or ends. But the range is there,
towering magnificently above all other literature. Scholars
may discuss its measurements and limits, the theologically
minded may battle over its "inspiration." ^ Let them argue.
What the world needs is more Mile tr read. (
We come now t<- the sec md question, IIow were these
chosen books preserved through the ages and passed down
*?Until the invention of prini'nff, which was desired mainly
that the Bible might be publit 'ie:|, copies were made by hand,
and errors inevitably crept in. no matter how scrupulous the
copyists' care. Hence in mal ;ng translations it became de
sirable to have as many of th-m for comparison as possible.
The earliest manuscript copre.- that*have survived to our time
date from the fourth century A.D., and the storv of one of
them the Sinaitic. will illu> rate the vicissitudes through
which they have passed.
