Abstract
Chinese translation of The Bible by the Western missionaries reached the peak in the third highest tide in the history of Chinese translation at the end of the Qing Dynasty and at the beginning of the Minguo. However, a group of the American missionaries who came to China later than other missionaries marched ahead of other countries' missionaries in China, and deducted the Western classical work The Bible in their own translating method, uniting the Chinese and the West as one, whose achievement in Chinese translation of The Bible was acclaimed as the peak of perfection and looked upon by other foreign missionaries of the time.
