Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Scheme Of Literal Prophecy: Considered, In A View Of The Controversy is a book written by Anthony Collins and published in 1727. The book is a detailed analysis of the concept of literal prophecy, which refers to the belief that prophecies in the Bible should be interpreted literally and not metaphorically or symbolically. Collins examines the controversy surrounding this concept and argues that a literal interpretation of prophecy is not always accurate or reliable. He explores the historical context in which prophecies were written and how this context affects their interpretation. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of prophecy and its interpretation. Collins also discusses the different approaches to prophecy taken by various religious denominations, including the Anglican Church and the Puritans. Overall, The Scheme Of Literal Prophecy: Considered, In A View Of The Controversy is a comprehensive analysis of the concept of literal prophecy and its implications for religious belief and practice. It is a valuable resource for scholars of theology and biblical studies, as well as anyone interested in the history of religious thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
