# The Scofield Study Bible # Preface The preface has Scofield publicly declaring that he does not recognise the preservation of God's word in the Textus Receptus, and instead gives praise to Westcott and Hort. >The Revised Version, which has now been before the public for twenty-seven years, gives no indication of becoming in any general sense the people's Bible of the English-speaking world. The discovery of the Sinaitic MS. and the labours in the field of textual criticism of such scholars as Griesbach, Lachmann, Tischendorf, Tregelles, Winer, Alford, and Westcott and Hort, have cleared the Greek textus receptus of minor inaccuracies, while confirming in a remarkable degree the general accuracy of the Authorized Version of that text. Such emendations of the text as scholarship demands have been placed in the margins of this edi­tion, which therefore combines the dignity, the high religious value, the ten­der associations of the past, the literary beauty and remarkable general accuracy of the Authorized Version, with the results of the best textual scholarship ![[preface SCOFIELD.jpg]] # Day of Christ/of the LORD >2 The expression, “day of Christ,” occurs in the following passages: 1 Cor. 1. 8; 5. 5; 2 Cor. 1. 14; Phil. 1. 6, 10; 2. 16. A.V. has “day of Christ,” 2 Thes. 2. 2, incorrectly, for “day of the Lord” (Isa. 2. 12; Rev. 19. 11-21). The “day of Christ’ relates wholly to the reward and blessing of saints at His coming, as “day of the LORD is connected with judgment. ![[1 cor 1 SCOFIELD.jpg]] # 1 John 5:7 ![[1 John 5 SCOFIELD.jpg]] **Page Under Construction** --- [[Homepage]]
