Excerpt from Remarks on the Publication and Circulation of the Scriptures: Suggested by Rev. W. P. Strickland's History of the American Bible Society, and Published as a Review of That Work in the Christian Examiner for November, Eighteen Hundred and Forty-Nine
It appears that the American Bible Society has already, at an expense of three hundred thousand dollars, assisted in translating, printing, and circulating the Bible in upward of fifty different languages. It may be doubted whether a great amount of good has been accomplished by expending so much on foreign translations, whilst a wide field for our own vernac ular version is unsupplied.
