St. Paul from the Trenches

St. Paul from the Trenches is an English rendering of Pauline material produced in the era of the First World War, and it is historically notable chiefly for that context as well as for its limited scope. Rather than a complete Bible, it covers only Pauline material, and it is categorized as a fresh translation rather than a revision of an earlier version; for its translation philosophy, readers are referred to the project documentation. Renderings of this kind belong to a wider pattern of early twentieth-century efforts to present the New Testament epistles in contemporary English, often for particular audiences, alongside the older revision traditions descending from the Authorized Version. Within the present catalogue it is included as a completeness backstop, ensuring that coverage of the English translation and revision family accounts for unusual and small-scale undertakings as well as major ones.
