Excerpt from The Epistles of St. Paul to the Thessalonians, Galatians, Romans, Vol. 2 of 2: With Critical Notes and DissertationsThe interest that attaches to the origin of that great ecclesiastical dominion which was to cover the world, though connected by little more than a name with the earlier Greek community which is the subject of our investigation, and the yet stronger interest in gathering up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost, respecting the great Epistle of the Gentile Apostle, will justify our lingering awhile around the probabilities and points of view which have been suggested by commentators. No pains can be too great to illustrate even the least words that bear upon the history of the Apostolical age. Small as the result may be, yet the inquiry will be fruitful. Nor need we be afraid of multiplying uncertainties. The light of theory seems to be needed to make us observe facts. The opinions of almost all have probably contributed something to the increasing clearness and distinctness with which we are able to determine the limits of our knowledge on this subject.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Epistles of St. Paul to the Thessalonians, Galatians, Romans, Vol. 2 of 2: With Critical Notes and Dissertations (Classic Reprint)

The Republic of Plato is the longest of his works with the exception of the Laws, and is certainly the greatest of them. There are nearer approaches to modern metaphysics in the Philebus and in the Sophist; the Politicus or Statesman is more ideal; the form and institutions of the State are more clearly drawn out in the Laws; as works of art, the Symposium and the Protagoras are of higher excellence. But no other Dialogue of Plato has the same largeness of view and the same perfection of style; no other shows an equal knowledge of the world, or contains more of those thoughts which are new as well as old, and not of one age only but of all. Nowhere in Plato is there a deeper irony or a greater wealth of humour or imagery, or more dramatic power. Nor in any other of his writings is the attempt made to interweave life and speculation, or to connect politics with philosophy. The Republic is the centre around which the other Dialogues may be grouped; here philosophy reaches the highest point (cp, especially in Books V, VI, VII) to which ancient thinkers ever attained. Plato among the Greeks, like Bacon among the moderns, was the first who conceived a method of knowledge, although neither of them always distinguished the bare outline or form from the substance of truth; and both of them had to be content with an abstraction of science which was not yet realized. He was the greatest metaphysical genius whom the world has seen; and in him, more than in any other ancient thinker, the germs of future knowledge are contained. The sciences of logic and psychology, which have supplied so many instruments of thought to after-ages, are based upon the analyses of Socrates and Plato. The principles of definition, the law of contradiction, the fallacy of arguing in a circle, the distinction between the essence and accidents of a thing or notion, between means and ends, between causes and conditions; also the division of the mind into the rational, concupiscent, and irascible elements, or of pleasures and desires into necessary and unnecessary—these and other great forms of thought are all of them to be found in the Republic, and were probably first invented by Plato.
