In this collection of twelve contributed essays, Hilmar Pabel and Mark Vessey aim to address this gap in Erasmus studies. The papers reflect recent critical scholarship in three main areas: Erasmus' promotion of the ideals of Renaissance humanism; his work as an editor, translator, and interpreter of the New Testament; and the impact of his published writings on the culture of early modern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHoly Scripture Speaks\u003c\/i\u003e represents the most concerted collective study of Erasmus' \u003ci\u003eParaphrases on the New Testament\u003c\/i\u003e since the completion of the first English translation by scholars during the reign of Edward VI (1548\/9).
