Select Discourses by John Smith, M.A., late fellow of Queen’s College in Cambridge, to which is added A Sermon, Preached at the Author’s Funeral by Symon Patrick, D.D. 4th Edition Corrected and Revised by Henry Griffin Williams, B.D. Cambridge: At the Univ. Press, 1859.
Good+ in library binding yet, strangely, without any ex-lib. marks or stamps. Title page, liii – 521 pps. The covers are slightly bumped, pages moderately yellow from age but not brittle.

These discourses were first published in 1660 and include treatises on The True Method of Attaining Divine Knowledge; On Superstition; Atheism; Immortality of the Soul; Prophecy (highly esteemed by LeClerc and later translated into Latin); God’s Attributes; Legal and Evangelical (Gospel) Righteousness; Christian’s Conflict and Victory of Satan + more. #02010201

New York: Continuum, 1994. 168 pp. HC/DJ. Good+. Shelfwear to DJ, minor bumping, binding is slightly loose. Internally clean. Inscribed to a colleague on title. Hewitt argues that original sin is not primarily a ‘rebellion against God’ as it is a rebellion against creation.

While some may disagree with her major premise it is a patiently researched and well written work on original sin with many compelling high points on pertinent issues. #010059
