G. P. "by the Spirit." The definite article is now omitted by critics, in con- formity with manuscripts and versions generally. Horsley complains of the in- troduction of the preposition "by," which is not in the text. The apostle states that our Lord, although He succumbed to death for the expiation of sin, was full of life and activity, and continued His work of evangelizing, in the regions of the dead.
