Publisher's Description

▼▲

Owen wrote 24 volumes, and only 23 have been available in reprint before now. Biblical Theology had been in Latin since 1661, and this is the first-ever English edition, translated by Dr. Stephen Westcott. It contains six sections, tracing theology from Adam to the time of Christ. Appendixed is Owen's "Defense of Scripture against Fanaticism," which is helpful in the current discussions with Charismatics.

Author Bio

▼▲

Editorial Reviews

▼▲

"Published in Latin in 1661 as a contribution to international reformed scholarship, this treatise draws on a very wide range of learning. The final part, in particular, where Owen characterizes evangelical theology as a gift of the Holy Spirit generating faith in Christ, holiness through Christ, and worship of Christ, is pure gold. Those with a taste for Owen, or for theology, or (best of all) for both, will read this Puritan proto-Biblical Theology with joy." - J. I. Packer
