Product Description

The Gospel of Saint John: In the Chinese Language, According to the Dialect of Shanghai (1853) is a religious text written by St. John, translated into the Chinese language and specifically tailored to the dialect of Shanghai. The book contains the Gospel of Saint John, which is one of the four canonical gospels in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. The text is written entirely in Chinese characters, with no English translation or commentary. It is intended for Chinese-speaking readers who are interested in studying the teachings of Christianity. This edition was published in 1853 and is considered a significant historical document, as it represents one of the earliest attempts to translate the Bible into Chinese. The translation was done by a group of Christian missionaries who were working in Shanghai at the time. The book is a valuable resource for scholars of Chinese history, language, and religion, as well as for anyone interested in the history of Christianity in China.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
