		Arberry's work, however, is simple, direct, formal and hits a mid-point between poetry and prose; in other words, tries as much as possible to present the Koran for English speakers the way the Koran would have functioned for listeners of Arabic.
		Arberry's interpretation is both elegant in its expression and quite literal with respect to the original Arabic.
		Arberry opts to adjust the layout of the text in accordance with the action or commands in the words themselves.

		Although Matthew, Luke and John are the names of disciples of Jesus, the authors of the Gospels bearing their names were not those famous disciples, but other individuals who used the disciples’ names to give their accounts credibility.
		[39] The Fourth Gospel (John) was opposed as heretical in the early church, and it knows none of the stories associated with John, son of Zebedee.
		In another three Gospels (Mark, Luke and John) the women found the stone door of the tomb rolled away, but in one (Matthew) the tomb was closed until an angel descended before them and rolled it away.

		Sufism: An Account of the Mystics of Islam by Arthur John Arberry (Dover) This wonderful introduction to the mysticism of Islam offers a much more resilient and flexible version of Islam than the highly polemical and politicalized versions so recently in the headlines.
		Ibn al‑Farid and John of the Cross stress the negative way toward union, as the lover must eradicate his selfish ways in total obedience to the beloved's will, and both poets map the via negativa to be followed by lovers aspiring to union and illumination.
		This calls attention to the important fact that the mystical ideas of Ibn al‑Farid and John of the Cross are intimately connected to love and its poetic expression, to the extent that they should not be, indeed, cannot be separated.
