Excerpt from A Commentary on the Thirty-Nine Articles: Forming an Introduction to the Theology of the Church of England
In doctrinal subjects, for obvious reasons, Hooker occupies a foremost place. He has therefore been freely quoted, and his true place in theology is attempted to be defined. These examples will serve to illustrate the nature of the work. Everywhere references are given, sufficient to guide the more thoughtful and studious minds to greater research, and to verify the statements in the text.
Further, remembering that the Articles were written by men who had been trained in the Roman system, it is essential for their proper understanding (to say nothing of our own necessities) that the Roman theology should be fully exhibited. This has always been done from unquestionable authorities, and generally from the Council of Trent itself.
