Description
"Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, 2 John" by Richard Francis Weymouth is a biblical translation published in 1903. This translation reimagines the New Testament's Second Epistle of John as if written in nineteenth-century English. Based on Weymouth's compilation of multiple Greek textual sources, it aims to present how inspired biblical writers might have expressed these sacred events in modern language. The work was completed posthumously by Weymouth's secretary and designed as a compressed commentary to accompany traditional translations. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
