A Plea for the Critical Study of the Scriptures Against Romanism and Rationalism (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781020892509)

This book is a powerful defense of the critical study of the Bible. Written by Melancthon Jacobus in the 19th century, the book argues that the scriptures must be subject to rigorous historical and literary analysis in order to be properly understood. Jacobus makes a compelling case for the importance of critical scholarship in the face of both Roman Catholicism and rationalism, and his arguments continue to resonate today. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of biblical interpretation or the relationship between faith and reason.
