Product Information

Dean Trench’s NOTES ON THE PARABLES OF OUR LORD retains first place among the works on the subject in the English language. It is unrivaled in its extensive and judicious use of the studies of others, ancient or contemporary. The author seems to have left little unexamined which might shed even a side-light on his theme. Trench’s treatment of the parables is unsurpassed in depth of spiritual insight. It abounds in practical applications
for lives of Christians and non-Christians, for the church and the world.

This Popular Edition has been prepared to remove the features which limited the usefulness of Trench’s original work. Nearly one-third of the NOTES ON THE PARABLES, as it first made its appearance, consisted of notes in
Greek, Latin, French, and German. These have been carefully translated and evaluated. Those judged valuable have been interwoven with the text or retained as notes in the English language.

This issue makes these studies available for members of Bible Classes and study groups. It is equally suited for the study and devotional reading of the individual Christian. In short, this widely-recognized exposition of the parables
has now been made available to the general Christian public.

Trench was an Anglican with considerable influence in the English church in the nineteenth century. He was archbishop in Gladstone’s time. Being much interested in words, Trench was a decisive influence in the early stages of the monumental Oxford English Dictionary (for which all authors should be particularly grateful to him).   228 pages, blue hard cover
