Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Scottish Communion Office 1764: With Introduction, History of the Office, Notes and Appendices In the following pages the reader is presented with an historical account of the growth of the Scottish Communion Office, and of the events which resulted in the adoption of its most characteristic features by the Church in the United States of America. The history of the Scottish Office during the eighteenth century demands careful labour in an obscure field of research; and there will be found here a more complete and satisfactory account of the various stages of its progress than has yet appeared. To the late Dean Nicolson of Brechin the reader is indebted for my being able to bring some new facts to light, and to clear up some interesting points that were hitherto doubtful or indistinct; the manuscript copies, made by the late Rev. P. Cheyne, of Aberdeen, from original letters and other documents, which the Dean placed in my hands, are of much interest, and my obligations are acknowledged at various points in the course of the history. The textus receptus of our Office, and in its purest form, is given in an exact reprint of the 8vo edition of 1764, published by Drummond, Edinburgh.
