_The Authorised Version._--You have allowed some discussion in your
pages on what I consider the certainly incorrect translation of Heb.
xiii. 4. in our authorised version. I do not think it at all desirable
to encourage a captious spirit of fault-finding towards that admirable
translation, but fair criticism is assuredly allowable. Can any of your
correspondents account for the rendering in Heb. x. 23. of τὴν
ὁμολογίαν τῆς _ἐλπίδος_ by "the _pro_fession of our _faith_?"
I have never seen any reply to a former Query of mine (Vol. ii., p.
217.) about the omission of the word "holy" in the article on the Church
in the Nicene Creed in all our Prayer-books. It is not omitted in the
original Greek and Latin.
