This work serves as a sequel to Burgon’s prior analysis of the traditional text, delving into the various factors that have led to the distortions found within the sacred writings. The text aims to systematically identify the sources and types of corruptions and to argue for the preservation of the traditional Gospel narratives in their most authentic form. The opening of this treatise introduces readers to the background and context of Burgon’s arguments, beginning with a preface by Edward Miller, who arranged and edited Burgon's writings posthumously. This section addresses critiques of the author’s previous volume while expressing gratitude for both support and constructive criticism from the academic community. Burgon sets the stage for his discussion on textual corruption, asserting that errors permeated the earliest manuscript copies of the Gospels due to both accidental factors and intentional alterations motivated by doctrinal biases. He presents an analysis that not only emphasizes the historical significance of the traditional texts but also prepares readers for a detailed exploration of the various causes of textual corruption that follows, promising to uncover the complexities of how these distortions occurred.
