EXPOSITION ON THE GENERAL EPISTLES (c)1918 by Charles R. Erdman
I believe that this was also revised about 1925, but not sure if there is much
difference.  This is the original 1918 version.

Couldn't find this one on Logos, so here it is below.  Logos has Erdman's works
on most of the New Testament, but not this one.  This one compiles perfectly
in 
the Book Builder with no errors and no Mistakes.


Here is Erdman's Work on James, 1-2 Peter, 1-2-3 John and Jude.
