The Servants of Scripture is a book written by John William Burgon in 1878. It is a detailed examination of the role of the servants of scripture, including the scribes, translators, and copyists who have contributed to the preservation and dissemination of the Bible throughout history. Burgon’s work is a comprehensive study of the textual transmission of the Bible, and he provides insights into the methods and techniques used by these servants to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the biblical text. The book is divided into four sections, each of which explores a different aspect of the subject. The first section focuses on the scribes of the Old Testament, while the second section examines the translators of the New Testament. The third section looks at the copyists who have preserved the text of the Bible over the centuries, and the fourth section discusses the role of the church in the preservation and dissemination of scripture. Overall, The Servants of Scripture is an important work of biblical scholarship that provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and transmission of the Bible.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
