Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Institutes of Ecclesiastical History, Ancient and Modern, Vol. 1 of 3: In Four Books, Much Corrected, Enlarged, and Improved From the Primary Authorities
The great need of such a work at the present day, when every other branch of theology is much cultivated, is so generally felt, that it is unnecessary to say anything to evince its importance or to excite an interest on the subject. The only things, therefore, which here claim attention, are the character and history of Dr. Mosheim, the reasons for giving a new translation of his work, and the additions made to it by way of notes.
