What Our Customers Say...

Description

Illustrated, Leather Binding

First published in 1755, this is the two volume Thomas Kelly edition of the early nineteenth century.

Illustrated with eight plates to volume I, and five plates to volume II.

Collated, complete.

Hervey's work offers a series of theological dialogues exploring Christian doctrine and spirituality.

Framed as a conversation between two friends—Theron, a moralist, and Aspasio, an evangelical—Hervey uses their discussions to contrast legalistic approaches to faith with the doctrine of justification by faith alone. 

The text was influential in spreading evangelical thought during Hervey’s lifetime.

With a bookplate to the front pastedown of volume I.
