Historical introduction

William Muss Arnolt discusses this translation of the portions of the Book of Common Prayer into Pashto in The Book of Common Prayer among the Nations of the World:

Worthington Jukes was for fifteen years a C.M.S. missioner at Peshawar. He is a B.A. of Trinity College, Cambridge, 1871; M.A., 1874; was ordered deacon for colonial service in 1872 by the bishop of London, and ordained priest at Calcutta in 1874. From 1872-74 he was missionary at Amritsar, and thence transferred to Peshawar, whence he resigned in 1890. From 1899-1907 he was rural dean of Cadbury. At present he is rector of Shobrooke, Crediton. Dr. Jukes, in conjunction with his colleague of the C.M.S., the Rev. Thomas Patrick Hughes, revised also the translation of the New Testament, of the Pentateuch, and of the Psalms into Pashtu (1890, 91). The revision was made under the direction of the Right Rev. Thomas Valpy French, bishop of Lahore.

David Griffiths identifies this translation as No. 133:1 in The Bibliography of the Book of Common Prayer 1549-1999 (London: The British Library; New Castle, Delaware: Oak Knoll Press, 2002).

It was digitized in July 2010 by Richard Mammana from a personal copy.
