By Richard Chenevix Trench

Published by Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner & Co Ltd: London 1915 Eightieth Thousand

"Notes on the Parables of Our Lord by Richard Chenevix Trench is a classic work of nineteenth-century Anglican theology, offering a detailed and reflective examination of Christ's parables as recorded in the Gospels. Trench, Archbishop of Dublin and a respected biblical scholar, approaches the parables not merely as moral stories but as carefully structured teachings rich in linguistic, historical, and doctrinal meaning. He combines close textual analysis with references to Greek and Latin sources, Church Fathers, and classical literature, aiming to illuminate both the original context and the enduring spiritual significance of each parable. First published in the mid-nineteenth century and frequently reprinted, this 1915 "Eightieth Thousand" edition reflects the work's long-standing authority and popularity among clergy and serious lay readers. Trench's measured prose and scholarly depth make the book especially valuable as a study aid, sermon resource, or devotional companion, bridging academic theology and practical faith. This book would appeal particularly to collectors of theological works, students of biblical interpretation, Anglican history enthusiasts, and readers interested in classic Victorian religious scholarship."
