1797 Osterwald BIBLE + Psalms & Paraphrases English Scottish Edinburgh Kerr
An important Osterwald English Bible from 1797! This charming, pocket-sized Bible comes from the French of Protestant Swiss pastor, Jean Frederic Osterwald who was notable for being highly influential among central European Protestants, so much so that he is often called the leader of a 'second reformation'. He is remembered for his innovative dogmatics, exegeses, liturgies, and hymns, but his most important contribution was his translation of the Bible. His translation was extremely thorough and included aspects many different Bibles, seeking to make the most accurate form of scripture. According to Darlow and Moule,
"Osterwald made use of the original Hebrew and Greek, the Septuagint and the Vulgate, and the French hand German version- both Protestant and Roman Catholic. His alterations tend chiefly to modernize the language, but they sometimes also affect the sense." (D&M 3814)

1675 Tertullian & Origen Apologetics Early Church Apologetics Pagan Heresy Bible

"Truth persuades by teaching, but does not teach by persuading."
― Tertullian

Tertullian was a 2nd-century early Christian church author and apologist. His works helped establish Western theology and early Church doctrine. He emphatically defended Christianity against pagans as well as defended 'freedom of religion' as human right unable to be taken away. One of his important apologetics was an anti-Jewish treatise to counteract Gnosticism and other philosophically based doctrines.

In the 17th-century, author Petrus Motta, also known as Pierre du Fosse, published an apologetic treatise against paganism and heresy written through the lens of the history of Tertullian and Origen. Motta also describes the state of the church in the 2nd and 3rd centuries with events from both the secular and ecclesiastical world.
