About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos or missing text. Not indexed. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1859. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... INTELLIGENCE, BIBLICAL, EDUCATIONAL, LITERARY, AND MISCELLANEOUS. THE VATICAN MS--The Curetonian Stkiac Gospels. Having freely expressed our opinion as to the merits of this first edition of the celebrated Codex Vaticanus, we proceed to make some observations as to the value of the Ms. itself. Now that it is no longer hidden within the recesses of the Vatican, now that it is once fairly before the world, it must necessarily be exposed to the ordeal of public opinion. No prescriptive rights, no mere love of antiquity, will suffice to shield it from the attacks of hostile criticism. The Ms. will be thoroughly sifted, its faults unceremoniously exposed, its deficiencies clearly pointed out. Hitherto the Codex Vaticanua has verified the maxim of Tacitus--Omne ignotum pro mognifico est. Wrapped up in the obscurity of the Papal Library, this ancient Ms. has been looked up to with an almost idolatrous veneration, and its text, even when disfigured by blunders, has been made, too frequently, the standard by which to judge of all other readings. We venture to predict that the publication of the Ms. will have the effect of lessening to a very considerable extent this excessive deference; and that henceforth the text of the Vatican codex will no longer possess that prescriptive authority which it has so long enjoved. Those of our readers who have been aware of the extraordinary estimation in which this ancient Ms. has been held by the most famous critics of the day, will hear with some surprise that it contains a vast number of egregious blunders. We at least, in our simplicity, have been accustomed to think of this codex antiguissimus--written, perhaps, whilst the Christian religion was still a religio illicita--as almost an immaculate copy, far removed from the vul...
