Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the prophetic tradition within the Society of Friends (Quakers) and its origins in seventeenth-century England. The author examines the writings of early Quaker leaders such as George Fox and William Penn, arguing that they believed a time of great distress and suffering would come upon the nation as a judgment for its impiety and corruption. This belief was based on their interpretation of biblical prophecy, particularly the Book of Revelation. The author also discusses the broader historical and religious context of these prophecies, situating them within the rise of Puritanism and the English Civil War. They explore the influence of millenarian ideas on the Quaker movement and the ways in which Quaker prophecies intersected with those of other religious groups. Overall, this book provides a rich and nuanced understanding of the prophetic tradition within the Society of Friends, offering insights into the religious beliefs and social concerns of this influential movement.
