摘要:太平天國深受基督新教影響,天王洪秀全、干王洪仁玕皆曾求道於福漢會(簡稱漢會)西教士。作為最早培養華人自傳的組織,漢會由普魯士傳教士郭實獵(1803-1851)創立於香港。太平天國欽定的聖經,修訂自郭實獵翻譯、漢會出版派發的漢文聖經。是次報告,聚焦漢會聖經譯本,梳理其版本源流,基於稀見的漢會成員手稿,探尋該會的內部結構與傳教模式。

 

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was deeply influenced by Protestantism. Both its Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan and the Shield King Hong Rengan were proselytized by Western missionaries from the Chinese Union. The latter, founded in Hong Kong by the Prussian missionary Karl F. A. Gützlaff, was the first Chinese Protestant missionary society to train Chinese converts on self-propagation. The official Bible of the Heavenly Kingdom was revised from Gützlaff’s Chinese translation, and published and distributed by the Chinese Union. This presentation re-examines the evolution of this Chinese Bible, exploring rare and almost neglected manuscripts to uncover new information on the Chinese Union's idealised internal structure and approach to propagation.
