WESTCOTT AND HORT have constructed their “_Revised\u003cbr\u003eGreek Text of the New Testament_” (1881).—That System, the Chairman of the\u003cbr\u003eRevising Body (BISHOP ELLICOTT) has entirely adopted (see below, pp. 391\u003cbr\u003eto 397), and made the basis of his Defence of THE REVISERS and their “_New\u003cbr\u003eGreek Text._”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    (1.) “There is little hope for the stability of their imposing\u003cbr\u003e    structure, if _its foundations have been laid on the sandy ground\u003cbr\u003e    of ingenious conjecture_. And, since barely the smallest vestige\u003cbr\u003e    of historical evidence has ever been alleged in support of the\u003cbr\u003e    views of these accomplished Editors, their teaching must either be\u003cbr\u003e    received as intuitively true, or _dismissed from our consideration\u003cbr\u003e    as precarious and even visionary_.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    (2.) “DR. HORT’S System _is entirely destitute of historical\u003cbr\u003e    foundation_.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    (3.) “We are compelled to repeat as emphatically as ever our\u003cbr\u003e    strong conviction that the Hypothesis to whose proof he has\u003cbr\u003e    devoted so many laborious years, _is destitute not only of\u003cbr\u003e    historical foundation, but of all probability, resulting from the\u003cbr\u003e    internal goodness of the Text which its adoption would force upon\u003cbr\u003e    us_.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    (4.) “ ‘We cannot doubt’ (says DR. HORT) ‘that S. Luke xxiii. 34\u003cbr\u003e    comes from an extraneous source.’ [_Notes_, p. 68.]—_Nor can we,\u003cbr\u003e    on our part, doubt_,” (rejoins DR. SCRIVENER,) “_that the System\u003cbr\u003e    which entails such consequences is hopelessly self-condemned_.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSCRIVENER’S “Plain Introduction,” \u0026amp;c.
