Excerpt from The New Englander, 1874, Vol. 33One feature in the religious history of the Armmians is worthy of special notice, we refer to their profound reverence for the Word of God. The Bible was translated into their lan guage in the fifth century. As Armenian scholars did not know Hebrew, the translation was made from the Septuagint, so well was the work done, however, that some biblical scholars have called the Armenian Bible the Queen of the Versions. This ancient version of the Scriptures has doubtless been the instrument in preserving whatever of Christian life has remained among the Armenians, certain it is that they have the most sincere regard for God's Word, and have ever held fast to the idea that every man is at liberty to read and understand that Word for himself.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
