Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Institutes of Moral Philosophy
The Divine Will is counted the ultimate rule of right; but not will conceived as unrelated to the nature of man, fickle or arbitrary in the bad sense, - for there is no. Such divine will, - but the Divine Will as expressed in man's moral nature, and in the nature of matter, and in the constitution of the universe. A change in the Divine Will would involve a corresponding change in the whole creation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
