From the library of Edward Nelson, with his name penned in ink at the top of the front endpaper.
Contains the two parts, each with its own black & white title page dated 1701. The first part's title page reads "Origines Sacrae: or a rational account of the grounds of the Christian faith...", the second part's title page reads "Origines Sacrae: or a rational account of the grounds of natural and reveal'd religion: wherein the foundations of religion, ... are asserted and clear'd;..." This second part has its own pagination and register.
Making an argument against Isaac La Peyrere's Pre-Adamite theories, "Origines Sacrae" comprehensively analyses flaws in the works of ancient historians to defend the Book of Genesis.
The British theologian and scholar Edward Stillingfleet (1635-1699) was considered an outstanding preacher and defender of Anglicanism. John Hough referred to him as "the ablest man of his time". Samuel Pepys reported that he couldn't get in to hear the sermon when Stillingfleet preached at St. Margaret in Westminster on the day following the Great London Fire. He was considered a leader of the group of Anglicans pejoratively referred to as "latidunarians" which grew out of the teachings of Cambridge Platonists. His thoughts and attitude were closely associated with those of Isaac Barrow, Robert South and John Tillitson, discarding allegorical readings in favor of a literal interpretation and preaching on behalf of reason and natural religion and thus contributing to the changing character of theology from dogmatic to rationalistic. Stillingfleet and the others were sympathetic to the new science of their time.
