Publisher's Synopsis
Locke's Essay For The Understanding Of St. Paul's Epistles: And Le Clerc On Inspiration (1820) is a book that contains two important works by the renowned philosopher and theologian, John Locke. The first work, Essay For The Understanding Of St. Paul's Epistles, is an analysis of the writings of St. Paul in the New Testament. Locke provides a detailed examination of the language and context of the epistles, and offers insights into the meaning and significance of Paul's teachings.The second work in the book is Le Clerc On Inspiration, which is a critical examination of the concept of divine inspiration in the Bible. Le Clerc, a prominent 17th-century theologian, argues that the Bible is not a direct revelation from God, but rather a collection of writings that were inspired by God. He discusses the role of human interpretation in understanding the Bible, and the importance of reason and critical thinking in theology.Together, these two works offer a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the Bible and its teachings. Locke and Le Clerc's insights are still relevant today, and this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in theology, philosophy, or religious studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
