THE NEW BIBLE.
Some Startling Changes by /he
nstat o res. •
It is announced that the work of the
revisers of the scriptures is complete, ancl
the results are about te) be -given to tla
world. The work has been pursued with
the greatest care by the best scholars of
' England and America, assisted by many of
the best scholars of coutinental Europe,
• both Protestant aaal Catholic. An evi-
dently will -informed and leareed English
correspondent of the Chicago Times send.
that paper . a forecast . of some o
the cliang.-s and . improvements which
have been made. These will appear
. rather- atartlipg, and perhaps distasteful,
to many people who beneve in it literal in-
spiration, and. - ia the inspiration of Eine
James' translators. The first consignment
- of new Bibles Neill be received. iii New York
in a few days. Among the changes which
will strike the- eve may be nOted those
caused by the substitution of inodern for
. "obsolete words. The- present text of the
English version isi over three centuries old,
and during that time the language has not
. alone taken<t Melly -new words, but it
. found new . meanings for . old words
th
has also data 'pal anany then in use, an
whiell have "lost! -`tlieir . original- - signid-
cance. Thus: i ' Doves inbering- - on

'Clouts,' for patches ;- ‘ earing,"- for plough
