Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of Tithes From Abraham to Queen Victoria When engaged in writing the History of the Rise, Progress, and Present Position of the Ecclesiastical Commission for England, I had to deal with the endowments of the Church. Those derived from tithes were the most important. My desire was to collect facts as to their origin in the Christian Church generally, and in the Church of England particularly. In searching after truth and facts, I experienced no little difficulty in arriving at correct conclusions, from the various contradictory statements on the subject. One party saw in the payment of tithes a continuity of old Scriptural laws in the Christian Church, and which Christians were bound to pay, whether they liked it or ¬ passages from the Old and New Testaments were distorted, and forced meanings given to them; apostolical constitutions were forged in support of the payment of the tithe tax.
