The Gospel For The Afghans is a book written by Henry George Raverty in 1864. The book is a translation of the Gospel of Matthew into the Pashto language, which is spoken by the Afghan people. The aim of the book is to provide the Afghan people with access to the teachings of Jesus Christ, as well as to promote Christianity in Afghanistan. The translation is accompanied by a brief introduction to the life of Jesus and the history of Christianity. The book also includes a glossary of Pashto terms used in the translation. The Gospel For The Afghans is a significant work in the history of Christian missionary efforts in Afghanistan, and remains an important resource for scholars of religion and linguistics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
