We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Jacob Isidor Mombert
Edit ProfileCareer
When twelve years old, Mombert went to England. In 1857, he was ordained a deacon of the Anglican church in the Chapel Royal, Whitehall, London, by Dr. Tait, later the Archbishop of Canterbury. Dean Stanley was one of the examiners. The following year he was priested by Bishop Mountain in Quebec, Canada, and served until 1859 as an assistant in Trinity Church, to which he had been called because of his ability to preach in English, French, and German. From 1859 to 1870, he was the rector of St. James Church, Lancaster, Pennsylvania. His sermon, "The Open Door, " preached before the Congress of Convocation held at Reading, Pennsylvania, February 20, 1867, led to the erection of the Central Diocese of Pennsylvania, and his services at Bedford Springs brought about the establishment of a parish. During the Civil War he supported the Union, and jointly with Phillips Brooks ministered to the wounded and performed the last rites for the dead upon the field of Gettysburg. The last years of his life were devoted to literary labors in Paterson, New Jersey, where he died.
Achievements
-
Mombert's published works covered a considerable range. In the Biblical field his Translation and Commentary on the Book of Psalms (1858), from the German of Augustus Tholuck, was fraught with peculiar difficulties because Tholuck had taken as a basis Luther's version, for which the English Authorized had to be substituted with inevitable adjustments in the commentary. Mombert's translation of the Catholic Epistles in J. P. Lange's A Commentary on the Holy Scriptures was enriched by a large number of signed notes. His edition of William Tyndale's Five Books of Moses appeared in 1884. His handbook called English Versions of the Bible (1883, 1890, 1906) is a learned and yet readable account of all the versions in the English tongue from the Anglo-Saxon to the Anglo-American Revision, with a description of the circumstances of the translation and of the sources employed. His last publication was Raphael's Sistine Madonna (1895), a historical account and an artistic appreciation, for which he was fitted not only by his unusual linguistic and historical attainments but also by an artistic taste which led him at the age of seventy to take up oil painting.
