THE CONCORDANT LIBRARY
CONCORDANT LITERAL NEW TESTAMENT
with KEYWORD CONCORDANCE
The Concordant
Version presents God’s Word in a most useful form. It is a literal
translation, seeking to carry over the Original text through a consistent–concordant–English
vocabulary. The type is large and readable, with boldface representing the
actual English translation of the original Greek and lightface showing
English words added for idiomatic clarity or to reflect grammatical
significance. Each page has wide margins. An abbreviation key is provided,
and there is a comprehensive Explanatory Introduction as well as
six pages of Instructions for Use.
The Version is bound
together with the KEYWORD CONCORDANCE, in which the English words used in
the text are arranged alphabetically. It is at the same time a Greek
concordance, because the entries, though listed in English form (according
to the primary English Keywords), represent the original Greek words. In
addition, the respective word in the Greek original is always added (in
Roman characters) beside the English standard. At the end of each entry is
given a list of all the words used in the Authorized (King James) Version
for that Greek term. In addition, these AV terms appear in regular
alphabetical order in this Concordance, together with a reference to the
Concordant Keyword.

CONCORDANT GREEK TEXT
This text
gives all the readings of the three most ancient codices – Alexandrinus,
Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. Although worthwhile readings from other sources,
including the Papyri, the evidence of the Fathers, ancient versions, later
manuscripts and modern scholarship were given ample consideration, it was
found that the three major ancient texts contain every letter which modern
editors deem genuine. Our CONCORDANT GREEK TEXT allows the reader to see
every passage just as it was penned nearly two thousand years ago, in the
ancient uncial alphabet.
An ultra-literal and
consistent English sublinear is provided which uniformly expresses the
Greek grammar with English standards. Wherever possible the first letter
of the English standard in the sublinear stands directly under the first
letter of the corresponding Greek word. With a format uniform throughout
to facilitate reference, there are 20 Greek letters to the line and 50 to
the column, giving 1000 to the page. Readings variant from the basic text
are given in the superlinear.

CONCORDANT VERSION OF THE OLD TESTAMENT
The ideal way to read the Old Testament is in its original languages, Hebrew and Chaldee (Aramaic). But as this is not ordinarily possible, the next best way is to use the CONCORDANT VERSION OF THE OLD TESTAMENT. The same concordant principle is used in this translation as was used for the New Testament. Eight volumes are now available, each with an introduction explaining the features employed by this version, as well as the method of translation used to produce it. Boldface type, symbols and superior letters are used to indicate the words actually found in the Original. Lightface type indicates words added for clarity. Textual emendations are noted. In paperback.

CONCORDANT COMMENTARY
ON THE NEW TESTAMENT
A. E. Knoch’s Commentary was first published more than sixty years ago. It is based on the CONCORDANT LITERAL NEW TESTAMENT and follows the sequence of books from Matthew to Revelation. Important passages are dealt with succinctly, yet with remarkable helpfulness, especially in light of the relative brevity of the entries. Ample cross-references to notes on related sections of scripture are provided. Literary frameworks of the various books of the New Testament are included.

GOD’S EONIAN PURPOSE
This work
is a thorough review of God’s plan and purpose, gathering together many
of the most basic themes of Scripture, including The Beginning of
Creation, The Eons and Administrations, Justification, The Conciliation,
Completeness in Christ, and The Goal of the Universe. These and
other vital subjects are presented in an interesting and informative
manner which will appeal to the sincere student of Scripture for the
strengthening of faith. The book contains charts and illustrations which
provide a welcome visual supplement to the text.
We live in a day when few
believers have a good grasp of the truth that God has a purpose. Many
reason that as long as they themselves are saved, nothing else really
matters. But to know Christ and to rejoice in the glory of God is just as
important. We need to listen to His Word and receive the glorious
revelations He has made concerning His operations and goal if we are to
possess real joy and satisfying peace.

CONCORDANT STUDIES IN THE BOOK OF DANIEL
Prophecy is of great value to our spirits in our everyday life. It exists not merely to afford us predictions concerning future events, but to reveal timeless truths for our use in the midst of the toil and turmoil of today. The political situation in the Middle East in the years to come is fully discussed in this book. See for yourself why we might watch for an upright ruler in a Greater Egypt to stand up as this event will probably be the first sign of the approaching time of the end.

ALL IN ALL
This publication is a compilation of the writings of A. E. Knoch on human destiny. The author examines three major theories on this topic current among students of Scripture. The striking phrase “All in all,” which pertains to the vivification of all mankind in 1 Corinthians 15:28 and relates to the reconciliation of the entire intelligent creation in Ephesians 1:23, is discussed at length. Two extensive appendices are included, exploring the usage of the terms “eon” and “eonian” in the Scriptures.

CHECK YOUR PANOPLY
Ephesians 6:13-17 is a favorite passage to many people. CHECK YOUR PANOPLY (the Whole Armor of God) explores its meaning for today, and its practical application with our prayer: “Our place in Christ will not exempt us from the wicked one’s attacks. We must be vigilant to maintain a sufficient and continuous supply of spiritual vitality. God in His wisdom has provided a complete suit of armor which is an entirely adequate protection against the stratagems of the Adversary.”

CHRIST TRIUMPHANT
Originally published over 100 years ago, this book attempts to answer the question of questions: Can Evil triumph finally over Good? If we answer affirmatively with the popular creed, we are practically falling into Dualism. But if we reply in the negative, we are teaching Universalism. Such are the issues involved. Men strive to save the popular creed by various modifications: by diminishing the number of the lost, by softening their torments, or by asserting their annihilation. What are all these but so many tacit confessions that men everywhere feel it impossible to maintain the creed still generally professed? This early work on universal reconciliation deals with these things, and more. Like Jukes’ RESTITUTION OF ALL THINGS, Allin’s CHRIST TRIUMPHANT includes much interesting church history.

THE MYSTERY OF THE GOSPEL
or The Secret of the Evangel.
Somehow
the very word “mystery” seems to shut the door of love in our faces
instead of opening portals for it. The word “mystery” looms large and
dark and shadowy. It seems to defy understanding. None but the wisest may
even attempt the solution to a “mystery”! Not so with the mysteries in
God’s Holy Word. They are simply secrets. Once they were hidden
and could not be known. And yet, after God revealed them, they were easily
understood by all who had ears to hear.
When the apostle Paul was
held captive in Rome, his burning desire was to blaze abroad the Secret.
No longer could he go among the ecclesias to impart God’s glorious
revelation, so in Ephesians 6:19 he asked his readers to pray for him that
he might open his mouth with boldness “to make known the secret of the
evangel.” (An excursus concerning the Greek terms aiõn (eon) and
aiõnios (eonian) is included.)

PAUL’S EPISTLES TO THE GALATIANS
This stimulating commentary on Galatians is sure to increase the student’s understanding of the apostle Paul’s epistle on liberty. Clear insight and careful exegesis work together to bring the reader into a greater appreciation of Paul’s ministry, especially his emphasis on the cross of Christ. In Galatians, the breadth and force of the apostle’s intellect, his boundless devotion to the Saviour, and the depth and warmth of his love reach their zenith.

THE GOSPEL OF OUR SALVATION
This book explores the various evangels (or gospels) of the Scripture, with a special emphasis given to the message of God’s grace for believers today. These gospels are described chronologically and include the gospel which God brought to Abraham, the gospel Gabriel brought to Zechariah, the gospel an angel brought to the shepherds, the gospel Timothy brought from the Thessalonians to Paul, the gospel of the Circumcision, the gospel of the Uncircumcision (including the “Mystery”), the gospel of the unsearchable riches of Christ, and the eonian (“everlasting”) gospel of the book of Revelation.

This book is a compilation of studies on the subject of spirit. Most of the material centers on Paul’s epistle to the Ephesians, with such topics as our spiritual blessings among the celestials, the sealing and earnest of the spirit, and the unity of the spirit. Spiritual warfare is discussed, as well as matters concerning the human spirit and the holy spirit of God.

DEATH, RESURRECTION, IMMORTALITY
This work deals with the problem of death and God’s solution of resurrection and immortality through the work of the Lord Jesus Christ. Writing during his final illness, the author was not anticipating a passage into an intermediate state between death and resurrection, but rather looking forward to the gift of life and immortality provided by Christ’s victory. The widely accepted teaching of the immortality of the soul, which makes resurrection unnecessary and detracts from the value of our Lord’s sacrifice, is shown to be unscriptural. There are provided concordant studies of the words “soul” and “spirit,” which are certain to be of much value to the reader who wants to find scriptural truth on these subjects.

THE GREEK WORD AIÕN-AIÕNIOS
The verbal pivot on which swings the question, “Does the Bible teach the doctrine of Endless Punishment?” is the word Aiõn and its derivatives and reduplications. The author of this treatise has endeavored to put within brief compass the essential facts pertaining to the history and use of the word, and he thinks he has conclusively shown that it affords no support whatever to the erroneous doctrine.

THE OUTCOME OF INFINITE GRACE
“The last enemy to be destroyed is death!” It was this verse which caused the author, a pastor, to study afresh the subject of the fate of the wicked. The three choices apparent from a surface reading of various biblical texts were eternal torment, extermination or ultimate reconciliation. The author studied to find which one was true. This book is a result of that study. Says the author, “If it proves as satisfying to the reader as it has to the writer we shall have a delightful time ‘rejoicing in hope of the glory of God.’ ”

HOW TO SCRIPTURALLY STUDY THE SCRIPTURES
The Sacred Scriptures are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus, both for the life which now is and the abundant life which is to come. God’s Word also reveals His unspeakable love, which alone can fill and satisfy every heart. So nothing can compare with the riches of the assurance of understanding in all His Word and will. His love constrains us to share the wealth of spiritual grace with all who have hearing ears and teachable spirits. This is the motivating purpose of this extensive exposition concerning administrational (“dispensational”) truth, that we might become qualified in the Lord’s service, “unashamed worker(s), correctly cutting the word of truth” (2 Tim.2:15).

THE PATHWAY OF FAITH
Studies from Genesis 12-50. This writing presents the spiritual careers of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and Joseph. God's dealings with these four patriarchs are rich in lessons of permanent value. With exquisite, artless simplicity they demonstrate the frailty of our frame, accentuate the gentle forbearance, and illustrate the exhaustless grace of our heavenly Father.

CHRIST AND DEITY
That which authoritatively reveals the status of God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ defines their relationship to the universe by means of two connectives: All is out of God, and, all is through our Lord. Hence we read, “For us there is one God, the Father, out of Whom all is, and we for Him, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through Whom all is, and we through Him” (1 Cor.8:6). The contrast here is sharp and clear. It is the key to the part played by Christ in the course of the eons. Nothing originates out of Him or consummates into Him, though He is the Origin and the Consummation. All comes through Him, from the beginning to the end. CHRIST AND DEITY begins with this thesis and studies all its ramifications in depth.
A. E. Knoch, 61 pages . . . . . . . . . . . . 3.00
CONSOLATION IN EXPECTATION
It is striking to note that the earliest revelation concerning our own happy expectation was given to saints who were sorrowing for loved ones (1 Thess.4:18). And to this day one will not find more comforting words for the bereaved believer than in Paul’s message concerning those who were put to repose. Here we have the balm needed for our wounded feelings when a beloved believer is put to repose. The subjects covered in this booklet include: How the dead are roused; The expectation of His calling; Who shall go through the Great Tribulation; What is the Trumpet of God; and Who will be snatched away. Besides providing much practical teaching, this study clearly demonstrates that the Rapture–the time when we are snatched away to meet the Lord in the air–is a distinct event from, and surely an antecedent to, Christ’s appearance on the Mount of Olives. An excellent study.

ETERNAL TORMENT or UNIVERSAL RECONCILIATION?
God’s goal for His creatures is clearly set forth in His Word. Yet devout and earnest men differ radically as to what the consummation will be. Those on all sides of the question feel very strongly that those opposing them are wrong. To resolve the question, the facts are examined by going to the original texts of Scripture. They contain no contradictions. Instead, all is clear, satisfactory and glorious: “The secret of God’s will . . .is to have an administration of the complement of the eons, to head up all in the Christ . . .” (Eph.1:9,10), and “to reconcile all to Him (making peace through the blood of His cross), through Him, whether those on the earth or those in the heavens” (Col.1:20). Most popular objections to this clear teaching of Scripture are considered.

THE SAVIOUR OF ALL MANKIND
This treatise is comprised of a series of seven articles dealing with human destiny and the purpose of the eons. The topics discussed include how the many shall be constituted just, God’s purpose in creation, God, Who wills that all mankind be saved, the completeness of salvation, the final goal of God’s love, the evangel and its ultimate consequences, and the definitive meaning of the Greek word aiõn.

THE PRE-EXISTENCE OF CHRIST
This work is a comprehensive study of the power and glory of Christ, God’s Anointed, before His descent to become a man. When Christ is fully revealed, we no longer doubt His pre-existence but praise and worship Him as God’s Creative Original, in Whom and through Whom all else has been brought into existence, Who laid aside His preeminence for the form of a slave and humbled Himself, and went down to the accursed cross.

TO ENLIGHTEN ALL AS TO THE SECRET
The letter to the Ephesians is an elaboration of the definition of the present secret economy that in spirit the nations are to be joint-enjoyers, a joint-body and joint-partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the evangel of which Paul became the dispenser. This is the “Ephesian secret”, concerning which the following study is presented. May it lead the believer into a greater perception and grasp of the love of God in which we are rooted and grounded!

ON THESE THINGS MEDITATE
This booklet consists of a series of devotional articles on spiritually enriching themes. Living a life in God we should not be worrying about anything. Instead, let us remember the way of victory and meditate on all the spiritual blessings among the celestials with which we are blessed. Let us strive to live in the life and peace of God awaiting that day when we shall be living together with Christ, at the same time believing in our hearts that God, the Father, shall become All in all.

WHENCE ETERNITY?
The inspired Scriptures never speak of “eternity.” They describe nothing as eternal and contain no term bearing our time-sense of everlasting.

THE ADDRESS ON THE ENVELOPE/
WHEN DID THE CHURCH BEGIN?
Two separate studies are included in this booklet. The first, The Address on the Envelope, explains that the historic, prophetic and literary portions of Scripture are usually in the form of short scrolls. God’s latest and highest communications have come to us in the form of letters or, if more formal or of a public character, epistles. The epistolary portions of the Scriptures are usually introduced by some specific indication as to the person or persons from whom the epistle comes and to whom it is directed. Knowing this and applying this principle in a practical way will be of great help in learning to “correctly cut the Word of truth.” When Did the Church Begin? is a study centered in the book of Acts, answering the question asked through its title, giving special attention to the significance of Paul’s being “severed” (Acts 13:2), with a view toward establishing the ecclesia which is Christ’s body, beginning the ecclesia as it is today.

EONIAN: EVERLASTING or AGE-LASTING?
This booklet explores what has become a prolific source of confusion–the usual inconsistency in rendering the Hebrew word olam and the Greek words aiõn and aiõnios (uniformly translated “eon” and “eonian” in the Concordant Version). These same terms in precisely identical settings are frequently represented by a variety of English words conveying widely divergent ideas, even antithetical concepts. Clearly, a study of the subject should be founded on the inspired Original alone.

THE RICH MAN AND LAZARUS
When interpreted as a fictional story, the story of the Rich Man and Lazarus offers no opposition to the teaching of the Old Testament concerning the death state. But when read as literal history it negates the entire volume of Hebrew revelation. The alternatives presented are either to allow this passage to dominate and control the explanation of the remainder of Scripture, or else to interpret these verses in such a way as will not conflict with or contradict it. To the student adopting the latter course, a grave difficulty seems to present itself: How can we interpret as a parable that which is not called such? On the other hand it must be admitted that a story (a record or account), in order to make an important point, may well be fictional; it need not be historical. The author notes that the entirety of Luke 15 and 16 is a multipart parable but actually constitutes a singular teaching on a unified theme. The key elements in the Lord’s obviously fictional story of the Rich Man and Lazarus were drawn from Jewish Oral Tradition later recorded in the Talmud, from which citations and references are included.

THE SPIRITUAL GIFTS FOR TODAY
The fourth chapter of Ephesians tells us what gifts are ours today. There are great changes. Most of the early gifts were dropped in this adjustment. They are no longer needed. Two new ones were added and three are carried over. It is worth every effort to clarify the relation between the gifts in 1 Corinthians and those in Ephesians. This work allows the reader to overcome the difficulties involved in this task.

TWO STUDIES ON HEAVEN AND HELL
This booklet gives good introductory material on what Christ taught about heaven and “hell”, as well as revelation on this subject from the Old Testament and the epistles of Paul. To quote the author in his introduction: “There was a time when I thought I knew this well. But this knowledge which seemed so clear, so blessed, so wonderful when it first dawned upon me, changed more and more into an unsolvable problem, yes, even a hideous nightmare, because of the way the matter was presented to me in all the churches and meetings I attended.” This study will help the reader begin to solve the problem in his own mind.

THE MORE EXCELLENT WAY
Reading of the marvelous gifts in 1 Corinthians 12, who has not been struck with the last verse of the chapter: “Covet earnestly the best gifts”? That is what we would like to do! But what do the closing words mean: “And yet show I unto you a more excellent way”? Can it be that there is something even better than the best gifts? If so, what is it and how may we enjoy it? This booklet helps us find the answer.

BELIEVING THE EVANGEL
In today’s popular formularized preaching the grace of God is unrecognized and effectually denied. Faith accords with grace, not “requirement-meeting.” If the evangel’s significance has become clouded to us through a mistaken belief that it is finally by our own obedience, the cross of Christ not withstanding, that we fend off God’s indignation, we will lose much precious truth of great practical value.

THE SOUL AND THE UNSEEN; THE GEHENNA OF FIRE
Two expositions: one addressing the true significance of the word “soul,” both in the Hebrew and Greek Scriptures; and the other a critical analysis of the various terms commonly mistranslated or otherwise associated with “hell.”

THE BLASPHEMY OF THE SPIRIT; OVERWHELMING GRACE AND “UNPARDONABLE” SIN
Probably most people under biblical influence have been either perplexed or distressed by the alarming phrase, “the unpardonable sin.”. How many have morbidly imagined that they had committed this sin and spoiled their whole career! To the contrary, since Christ died for all that all might live, and all who will be saved will be saved by grace, it follows that eventually all will be saved, that God may be All in all.

ON BAPTISM
This is a detailed study of baptism throughout the Scriptures. It discusses the meaning of baptism as it is associated with Israel and it’ rituals, the Kingdom and it’ prerequisites, and the Body of Christ with it’ “ baptism.”

SALVATION AND JUDGMENT IN THE BOOK OF MATTHEW; THE VOICE OF ONE IMPLORING
First and second in a series of studies on the book of Matthew. When our Lord came into this world He came to save: “you shall be calling His name Jesus, for He shall be saving His people from their sins” (Matt.1:21). This important declaration of God's intention forms a solid basis for all that is recorded throughout the book of Matthew, and must be kept in mind in the midst of the stern warnings of judgment, even including that of “fire unextinguished”.
Dean Hough, 20 pages . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.25
ASTONISHED AT HIS TEACHING; IF THE LORD IS WILLING
Third and fourth in a series of studies on the book of Matthew. Jesus had announced the nearness of the kingdom, but the kingdom with its deliverance from the many evils of present life could not immediately appear. No one could achieve the perfection demanded by the Sermon on the Mount apart from a deliverance from sin. The death of Christ, as the One Who saves from sin, must occur first, and provide the basis for all the blessings of the kingdom.
Dean Hough, 20 pages . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.25
SALVATION OF THE UNBELIEVER; GOD ALL IN ALL
God has a goal. He intends to become All in all of His creatures. He will accomplish this by way of reconciling all His enemies by the blood of Christ's cross, by justifying, vivifying, and saving all mankind at the consummation. Those who believe now are saved by His grace. For those who do not believe there is a long, dark, and painful process of judgment, all the while leading to the same bright goal.
A. E. Knoch, 20 pages . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.25
LORD SAVE US!; IN THE DAY OF JUDGING
Fifth and sixth in a series of studies on the book of Matthew. The good news of the nearness of the kingdom was qualified by limitations and sober warnings through much of our Lord's ministry to Israel. And while severe losses and lamentations lay ahead for those who opposed or simply failed to heed the word, the fact remains that Jesus will eventually save Israel from their sins, even the sins of unbelief and enmity.

SCARLETT'S NEW TESTAMENT (1798)
This translation seeks to be idiomatic, while taking care to steer between the two extremes, of being too servile and literal on the one hand, or too periphrastic on the other. The usual translation of aiõn and aiõnion as “everlasting” or “eternal”, and the want of discernment in readers, has been a means of propagating the doctrine of endless damnation, God having no ultimate end in view but the endless misery of His creatures. The word aiõnion (herein rendered “aeonian”), though it is sometimes used of a short, and at other times of a long duration, simply expresses pertaining to duration or continuance.

CREATION (U.R. issue)
God created this world in which we live. The heavens and the earth did not come about by themselves, nor did they arise out of nothing. All is out of God. Among these pages is the explanation of the import of God’s creation of evil. Three fundamental lessons are that God is active, evil has entered into God’s creation, and God gloriously disposes of evil by the power of His spirit and His word. What is the purpose of the former, present, and future creations? How do they serve for the sake of God, Christ, Satan, and humanity? These and other lessons are discussed in this issue of Unsearchable Riches magazine. As we learn of God’s plan, let us look forward to the glorious consummation of God’s creation.

LAMENTATIONS (or HOW! U.R. issue)
The CONCORDANT VERSION of the book of Lamentations is presented here along with notes selected and adapted from a study written by Vladimir Gelesnoff. What is startling in this book is not simply the horror of Jerusalem’s devastation but the fact that this has come upon the very people and city marked out from the rest of the nations by special divine favor. These sorrows are traced to the divine activity of God Who is being revealed through the pains and sorrows of temporary affliction. The principle of God’s faithfulness in the midst of sufferings remains as vivid and meaningful to us as it was to the people of Judah so long ago.
