Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Enquiry Into the Meaning of Demoniacks in the New Testament The design of the following Enquiry is to clear up a Difficulty which naturally arises in most Men´s Minds, upon reading the Cures done by our Saviour upon Persons that were possessed by Devils. There are but few thinking People, I imagine, who do not experience in themselves, what the pious and profoundly learned Mr. Joseph Mede declares that he had experienced - to marvel how these Demoniacks should so abound in and about that Nation which was the People of God, (whereas in other Nations and their Writings we hear of no such,) and that too, as it should seem, about the Time of our Saviour´s being on Earth only, because in the Time before we find no mention of them in Scripture. The Wonder is yet the greater, - not to have been accounted then by the People of the Jews any strange or extraordinary Thing, but as a Matter usual. Vid. Mr. Mede´s Discourse on John X. 20. The true Solution of this Difficulty is attempted to be shewn in the following Papers. Whether the Reasons usually assigned by Men of Learning will prove, that Persons were strictly and properly possessed with the Devil, viz. "That Devils spake out of the possessed Persons; that they were sent out of them, and they entered into the Herd of Swine; that personal Actions as well as Speeches are ascribed to them, which can never be ascribed to meer Phrensy and Madness, &c." must be left to the Judgment of the Reader.
