Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Humble Attempt to Investigate and Defend the Scripture Doctrine: Concerning the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, to Which Is Now Added Observation Concerning the Madiation of Jesus Christ, in the Various Dispensations of God the Father and the Final Issued of His Administration Mr. Printer, It has long appeared to me, very improper when I noticed the seeming zeal in Clergymen, when addressing each other; they were careful not only to use the word reverend, but also to have it in capitals, while they overlooked, or neglected when speaking of their Maker, to use capitals, for instance the words, He, Thee, Thou, Thy, These, His, I, Him, &c. all in single letters when speaking of God; and even in Scripture, language is used in single letters. Also, witness, Gen. 18 - 28 & 32, from 24 to the end of the chapter, Exodus 33 & 12 to the end. A school boy could hardly trace these dialogues between God and man, to understand them without a good deal of study, whereas had it been printed in capitals, when speaking of God, as He, Him, it would be clear to the lowest capacity. As Providence has therefore put it into my power to republish this good work, I wish you to be careful to have all the words before mentioned, when speaking of God, as He, Thee, Thine, Thou, Thy, His, I, Him, Himself, in capitals, which will not only make the reading more intelligible, but also to testify our superiour regard to our Maker. I would ask Clergymen of all denominations, how or when they came to claim, or get such a title as Reverend; would they be so obliging as to inform the public to whom it has given just offence, who was so audacious as introduce such a custom, or when it did take place? It brings no honour to them to get or give it; and when intelligent, pious people see it attached to them (being the attribute of God alone,) they are disgusted at it, and pity the ignorance of those who bestows, and also they who receive it.
