Publisher's Synopsis
The Measures of Submission to the Civil Magistrate: Considered in a Defense of the Doctrine is a book written by Benjamin Hoadly in 1718. The book is a defense of the doctrine of submission to the civil magistrate, which is the idea that citizens should obey the laws and authority of their government. Hoadly argues that this doctrine is not only necessary for maintaining order and stability in society, but also for ensuring the protection of individual rights and freedoms. He examines various measures of submission, such as paying taxes and obeying laws, and provides a detailed analysis of their importance in maintaining a just and peaceful society. The book is a significant contribution to political philosophy and remains relevant today as a discussion of the importance of civic duty and responsibility.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
