Excerpt from The Numerical Bible: Being a Revised Translation of the Scriptures With Expository Notes; Arranged, Divided, and Briefly Characterized According to the Principles of Their Numerical Structure
Can, then, He who for Christians is the Great Teacher, and who claims to be in some sense the only one (matt. Xxiii. 8) lead us astray? TO prove the possibility, Dr. Sanday stamps the expression He uses, He maketh the sun to rise as imperfect science (1) and to those who, timidly enough, maintain that questions relating to the author ship Of the Old Testament touch more nearly the subject-matter of Revelation, he puts the question, Are these distinctions valid? Are they valid enough to be insisted upon so strongly as they must be if the arguments based upon them are to hold good?'

F. W. Grant was born in the Putney district of London, on 25th July, 1834. His conversion was occasioned by the reading of the Scriptures himself, and not through the instrumentality of others. He was educated at King�s College School with the expectation of securing a position in the War Office. The necessary influence for this failing, he went to Canada when he was twenty-one years of age.
At the time he came to Canada the Church of England was opening parishes in the new parts of the country, and he was examined and ordained to the ministry without having taken the regular college course. He left the 'systems' on receiving light through the reading of the literature published by so-called 'brethren', and lived for a time in Toronto, afterwards coming to the United States, where he lived in the city of Brooklyn, and then in Plainfield, N.J., till his death. He was the leader in what is known as 'the Grant party' in America.
