I John, 3: 1,2,3.

PROF. HERMANN S. HERING.

Christian Science Sentinel

We are glad to republish the following important article and the letter to Mrs. Eddy which accompanied it. The correct interpretation of the Scriptures is of the utmost moment in individual study, as well as in our public services, and we feel sure that our readers will derive much help from Professor Hering's thoughtful analysis of the three verses, as they occur in the authorized King James Version of the Bible, to which he had special occasion to devote careful study. It is interesting to note that the Danish, Dutch, French, German, Norwegian, and Swedish Bibles, now in general use, confirm the rendition which is supported in this analysis.—Editor.

[From the Christian Science Sentinel on January 6, 1906]

It may interest the First Readers of our Churches and Societies, as well as other students, to examine the renditions of I John, 3:1, 2, 3, given by various writers and translators.
