Excerpt from Lectures in Divinity
Some parts of the work now presented to the public may seem to require an Apology, as not being composed with that formality, which may be thought requisite. The fact is, these Lectures were not written in order to be read ; the writing was merely a preparation for speaking. To revise them now, and give them an appearance fit to meet the eye of a critical reader, would be a work of much time, and perhaps of little utility. Writings have often been rendered obscure by too laboured a correction, and by endeavours to reduce matter into the least possible compass. This apology, it is hoped, may suffice, if some expressions are found of rather a familiar fort, and if some remain in the form of queries.
With respect to subject matter, every reader of Lectures should be aware, that they do not pretend to be wholly original. If the Lecturer compiles with judgment what will be most useful to his particular hearers, and sometimes advances a step or two beyond his predecessors, he does all that ought to be expected from him. In examining what has been already said, he will naturally think for himself, from whence something original will result; and, if one man improves one subject a little, and another another, there is an advancement of knowledge upon the whole.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a deep dive into the history of religion, offering a comprehensive exploration of its nature and the various sources of religious truths. The author begins by exploring the two primary sources of religious knowledge: reasoning through introspection, and studying religious scriptures. The author argues that humans tend to attribute unexplained events to intelligent beings, and that as events become more complex, so too does the perceived intelligence of those beings. Eventually, this leads to the concept of one supreme being, the creator and guide of the universe. The existence of this being is further supported by the intricate design and harmony of the natural world. The second part of the book focuses on the study of religious scriptures, particularly the Hebrew Bible and the Christian New Testament. The author provides a detailed overview of the development of these texts, including the different languages in which they were written and the historical context in which they were produced. The author stresses the importance of understanding the original languages of religious texts in order to fully grasp their meaning and significance. They also discuss the need for a critical and open-minded approach to the study of scripture, acknowledging the possibility of different interpretations and the importance of considering historical and cultural factors. This book offers a comprehensive and thought-provoking examination of religion, providing valuable insights into its origins, development, and significance. It is an essential resource for anyone interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the role of religion in human history and experience.
