The People’s New Testament is unavailable, but you can change that!

From the preface: “This work has been prepared, not especially for the learned and critical class, but for the people. The aim is indicated by the title. It has been a cherished purpose to prepare a People’s New Testament, with such aids as would enable the common reader to arrive at an understanding of every portion of the sacred message.”

SYMBOLS In this table I aim to give only the leading Symbols used by John, with their apparent meaning. The definitions have been obtained from Mede, Elliott, Lange, Campbell, Archdeacon Lea, and other sources. Adultery.—Idolatry or apostasy; especially the latter. As Christ is represented as a bridegroom and the church as a bride, apostasy, or unfaithfulness to him, would be spiritual adultery, and a false church properly represented as a harlot. Angel.—Any agent or messenger of the divine will.
