The Four Gospels and the Revelation

Richmond Lattimore

4.4/5 ( ratings)

Richmond Lattimore, poet and translator of Greek classics, has translated the four Gospels and added them to his version of the Revelation of John. He has aimed to capture the style and syntax of the original texts by adhering closely to the simple beauty of the Greek, and to approach the words of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, not as a biblical scholar, but as an authority on the language in which they have come down to us.
