[W*! f>3#)*gi*!the ruins of the Roman Castle of Richborough still stand;

and thence he might travel, through London, by the Watling Street

to Chester, or by the great north road through Lincoln and York to

Hadrians Wall. Here, as on other frontiers, travel to the Roman

came to an end. Comparatively free of bodily dangers, it was

anything but free of moral risks. The inns were not pleasant to

decent people : and hence the great value attached, when

Christians began to travel, to letters of commendation and to

hospitality. But travel was swift, as speed then went, and sure. A

man could have done his journey of 1,250 miles from Rome to

the Channel without misadventure or delay : and never again, till

our own age, would a feat like that have been open to him. But

then he could have also done what is still impossible to us, for one

language and one coinage would have carried him all the way. A

common language and culture penetrated everywhere by thesegreat routes. Juvenal, 55- c. 135, had a supreme contempt for

the Greek adventurer. But there was a nobler Hellenism which

had furnished models and inspiration to the great writers of the

Augustan age, and which was destined to refashion Italian culture

in the generation following his death. The Emperors from Julius

Caesar to M. Aurelius were, with few exceptions, trained in the

literature of Greece. Even the bluff soldier Vespasian had

an adequate command of the Greek language....From the close ofthe first centuryclassical Latin literature....came to a mysterious

end. The only authors of any merit in the second century wrote in

both languages indifferently.!!!!241!!A3&E%!!E!!>30#&D1!!L1A1!

!Ta*! f>3#)*gii**! But the matter is not that simple. Anyone who

translates also interprets: the translation is not simply a rendering

of the underlying text but also an expression of the translators

understanding of it. And every translator is a child of his own time

and of his own culture. Consequently every translation must be

understood and appreciated as an intellectual achievement in its

own right. This is especially true of the versions of the Bible which

were produced to meet the practical needs of a community. Mostversions of the Bible have been the work of anonymous

translators!(usually of many translators) who have given concrete

expression in their work to the intellectual assumptions of

their age and their culture, the religious and other opinions which

they adhere to or respect, the prejudices and concerns which they

adopt consciously or unconsciously, their education, their ability

to express themselves, the conceptual range of the language theyare translating into, and many other factors. We must therefore

distinguish between what comes from the original text and what is

added by the translator a formidable task to accomplish before

we can use the versions for purposes of textual criticism. fX%1E!

the land. And he went up to Samaria and besieged it three

years. In the ninth yea of Hoshea the king of Assyria took

Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria. And he

placed them in Halah, and in Habor by the river Gozan,

and in the cities of the Medes. So the LORD was very

angry with Israel, and turned them away from His face;

not one was left, only the tribe of Judah by itself. Also

Judah did not keep the commandments of the LORD theirGod, but walked in the statutes which Israel made. And

the LORD rejected all the seed of Israel, and afflicted

them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers,

until He had cast them out of His sight. For He tore Israel

from the house of David. And they made Jeroboam the son

of Nebat king. And Jeroboam drove Israel away from

following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin. For

the sons of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which

he did. They did not depart from them until the LORDturned away Israel from His face as He had said by all His

servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away out of

their own land to Assyria until this day. And the king of

Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and

from Ava, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and

placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the sons of

Israel. And they possessed Samaria and lived in its cities.`!!
