Publisher's Synopsis
Truth Further Defended And William Penn Vindicated is a book written by Thomas Wight and published in 1700. The book defends the Quaker belief system and provides a defense of William Penn, who was a prominent Quaker leader and founder of Pennsylvania. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the Quaker belief in the inner light and the second part addressing criticisms of Penn's actions and character. Wight argues that the Quaker belief in the inner light is not a form of heresy or blasphemy, but rather a legitimate interpretation of Christian doctrine. He also defends Penn against accusations of being a traitor and a hypocrite, arguing that Penn's actions were motivated by his commitment to Quaker principles and his desire to establish a just and peaceful society. Overall, Truth Further Defended And William Penn Vindicated is an important work in the history of Quakerism and provides valuable insights into the beliefs and practices of this religious movement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
