*The Meaning and Use of Baptizein
T J Conant
*Available only from the publisher or Tabernacle Bookshop at RRP. In the debate over the method of baptism, both sides - immersers and sprinklers - claim a meaning for the Greek to suit their case. Is the Greek really this elastic? This historic classic is unique, because it quotes or refers to every passage in which a representative baptizing word is found in classical Greek literature (pagan and Christian), including the Church Fathers, to show that it always means - to immerse (whether used literally or figuratively).
Conant was a leading American scholar and Bible translator. (First issued 1860)
