"I
have been systematically working through reading the Puritan and Reformed CDs I
purchased.
I must say, there is nothing like them
available anywhere.
It is the most amazing collection of works I
know of in one package to date.
In
my opinion, it far surpasses Ages Software and their collections.*
The
Puritan and Reformed material presented on these CDs is exceptional.
I
am continually amazed at the depth and breadth of information in both
collections, and the rarity of works that I now have at my fingertips.
You
have done an immeasurable service for the Kingdom of Christ in making these CDs
available, and every pastor and theologian should own them without question
(they would be foolhardy to pass them by)."

* It is SWRB's opinion
that Ages has done an excellent job in making various Reformed works available
on CD, so much so that we also distribute a number of their CDs at discounts.
Thus, please don't make more out of our publishing this comment than is
warranted, as this is a comment we received from one of our customers and it
expresses his opinion. As for Ages' work, we rejoice whenever the truth is
published, whether through others or through SWRB (as we play only a very small
part in the revival of classic Reformation, Puritan and Covenanter thought that
is now taking place worldwide through God's marvelous grace). The publication
of the best Reformers and Puritans of the past is one of the greatest needs of
our time, as this extends the blessings that come through faithful preachers
and authors into our day and into the future. Lord willing, the growth in the
publishing of faithful works from the past will help stem the tide of the great
declension and unfaithfulness which we are now witnessing all around us, even
(sadly) among many churches that still call themselves "Presbyterian"
and/or "Reformed." So please pray together with us that our Lord will
multiple the number of faithful publishers and publications, and that He will
give many the heart to stand for the truth no matter the consequences (as He
has done for our faithful forefathers, who resisted Satan and sin unto blood
and even to martyrdom in many cases). -- RB.
"SWRB's
Puritan and Reformation CD libraries are an invaluable source for the study of
the history and theology of classic Reformation theology. The collection is
remarkable not only for depth of content, but also for the rarity of many of
the works. Most seminary libraries will not have even a percentage of the works
available on these CD-ROMs. I cannot imagine anyone working in Reformation /
historical theology that would not want to use the Puritan and Reformed
libraries!"

"I
just received your CD collection. One bit of advice: you should instruct your
customers to take about 1 week off just to peruse the tables of contents for
these CD's, followed by another week off, in order to recover from the
state of shock in which they will find themselves.
In
all seriousness, this collection is almost impossible to describe. It has to be
seen to be believed. As a pastor, my library has just increased
dramatically.
As a Ph.D. student in Puritan and Post-Reformation studies, I have immediate
access to many of the same works for which I would normally need to access
through rare book rooms of theological libraries.
Thank
you for this labor of love. Thank you for making it accessible, both
financially and technologically. May the Lord richly bless you for this service
to his people."

"You
all are doing a wonderful service by making all these materials so readily
available. Having them on my hard drive is BETTER than having access to a
rare book library with all of them in hand... I have found the CD set
invaluable as a tool of scholarship. So once again I commend you brothers for making
it available."

"It's
been several weeks now since I received the CDs and have had some time to
digest some of them. All I can say is, "WOW!" This is truly a
library like no other, and has already paid great dividends not only in my own
personal worship and study, but in my teaching as well. I first balked at the
price, but after seeing the vastness of the material, I almost feel as though
I'm robbing you!
I
pray that the Lord will allow you to get these materials into the hands of as
many ministers as possible."

Full
SWRB CD comment from Dr. Moore:
This
collection of 62 CDs is a truly astounding accomplishment. There is nothing
like this available to the ordinary Christian on the whole face of the earth.
Now,
for the first time ever, ordinary Christians can have direct and near
effortless access to the very cream of Puritan and Reformed, as well as
Covenanter, literature.
These
books are often in fascinating first editions and many are electronically
linked and indexed for the first time. The ordinary Christian may here dig
into a simply staggering wealth of literature, from devotional and sermonic
material to technical and scholarly works. Even in the days of the Long Reformation
itself ordinary Christians didn't get to see this kind of library -- most
couldn't read for a start, and even those who could, would never have been able
to afford to buy even a hundredth part of the material on these CDs. Truly we
are without excuse!
And
the significance of this collection goes even beyond that. No longer do we have
to wait for modern Reformed publishing houses to predict that a particular
Reformation or Puritan book will be sufficiently popular to make it economical
to reprint, or to deem it "safe" enough to be let loose on the modern
evangelical church. Rather, we are now able to see for ourselves the whole
range of the Puritan and Reformed publishing enterprise, including views that
are usually suppressed by most modern devotees of "Puritan" piety!
Buy
these CDs while you can, and find out for yourself what the First and Second
Reformations were really all about! You'll be truly amazed, and, by God's
grace, will grow from being an ordinary Christian to being an extraordinary
one. What they used to say of the Puritan John Flavel's preaching, can be
said of these CDs: they are "hissing hot"!

"This
side of eternity I'll never be able to repay the favor you have done mankind by
bringing these... CDs together.
The
first week of reading I grew more as a Christian reading those rich, pure
Gospel Commentators than I have in 18 years of Christian life. After reading some of
the Puritan CDs I have to get the Reformation set if it kills me. A fire is
burning within me. These... CDs are liable to start a revival fire unseen in
any generation... the Gospel in its pure form is seen in these... CDs.
Sir,
I cant say enough. What a treasure! I'll never be able to repay you this side
of heaven, but when we get there I am sure you will see the rich fruits of your
labor. God bless you for not being money hungry but wanting to see Christians
grow in the Lord... I love you even though we have never met, you have
helped me in my Christian walk tremendously with these... CDs.
I
am not bragging on the flesh, I am just giving honor where honor is due. The
Holy Ghost will take these CDs and light a fire unseen and unheard of. God
bless you all at Still Waters."

"Thank
you so very much for the CDs.
I am amazed at the quality and quantity of
the literature...
I
cannot imagine any other single thing being done by any man or group of men in
the earth today that is of such extensive, present, and enduring value as
this CD work is.
God
be praised that he uses sickly and weak men to forward his kingdom, that the
work may not be mistaken to be wrought by the might of men, but by his Spirit.
His strength is perfected in weakness."

Summaries by Reg Barrow and others.
Resource 1.
AUGUSTINE
On the Trinity (c.
391)
Revised and annotated, with an introductory
essay by W.G.T. Shedd. Shedd states that "this
particular treatise is perhaps as pregnant and suggestive as any that
Augustine, or any other theologian, ever composed. The doctrine of
the Trinity is the most immense of all the doctrines of religion. It is
foundational theology. Christianity, in the last analysis, is Trinitarian...
The Trinity is the constitutive idea of the evangelical theology, and the
formative idea of the evangelical experience... Mysterious as it is, the
Trinity of Divine Revelation is the doctrine that holds in it all the hope of
man; for it holds within it the infinite pity of the Incarnation and the
infinite mercy of the Redemption." 228 pages.

RUTHERFORD, SAMUEL
Christ Dying, and Drawing
Sinners to Himself (1647, 1727 edition)
The title continues (providing a nice summary
for this rare valuable work): "Or, A Survey
of our Saviour in His Soul-Suffering, His Loveliness in his Death, and the
Efficacy thereof. In Which Some Cases of Soul-trouble in weak Believers,
Grounds of Submission under the Absence of Christ, with the Flowings and
Heightenings of free Grace, are opened. Delivered in Sermons on the Gospel
according to John, Chap. xii. ver. 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33. Where are also
interjected some necessary Digressions, for the Times, touching divers Errors
of Antinomians; and a short Vindication of the Doctrine of Protestants, from
the Arminian pretended Universality of Christ's Dying for All and every One of
Mankind; the moral and feigned Way of irresistable Conversion of Sinners; and
what Faith is required of all within the visible Church, for the Want whereof,
many are condemned." The Dictionary of Scottish Church
History and Theology
says of this work, "Rutherford's writings
during the London years provide a significant commentary of the theology of the
Westminster Confession and Catechisms. In Christ Dying and Drawing Sinners
to Himself Rutherford elaborately
scrutinizes the Antinomian notion that the law has no obligation for the
Christian" (p. 736). This book
contains an extensive index, is 760 pages in length and is an excellent example
of sound and faithful Covenanter preaching, balancing both faith (doctrine) and
manners (practice). Classic Rutherford!

AMERICAN PORTRAIT FILMS
Fingerprints of Creation (Video)
Scientist Robert Gentry has discovered that
granites contain beautiful microscopic coloration halos produced by the
radioactive decay of primordial polonium. According
to every basic principle of evolutionary theory, these halos shouldn't be
there. Polonium radiohalos indicate that the earth was formed instantly and
thus totally refute evolutionary theory.
Furthermore this very evidence, though published in notable scientific journals
and used as testimony in courts of law, has yet to be challenged by any
evolutionist. The remarkable story of the discovery of this
"finger print of creation" is told here. 34 minutes. This is a
companion video which can be effectively used together with The Young Age of
the Earth
Video ($29.95).

WILLSON, JAMES M.
Civil Government: An
Exposition of Romans 13:1-7 (1853)
Does the Bible give any qualifications for
Christians to judge whether or not a given civil magistrate is a lawful or
unlawful "power" in the eyes of God? Does the very existence of a
civil "power" (say Hitler's Nazi state, for example) make them a
legitimate government according to Romans 13? Or, can a civil government obtain its
"power" from "the beast" (as the book of Revelation
teaches) -- as some "churches" do? Should
civil "authorities" be judged according to the secret or revealed
will of God? This is a fine piece of exegetical work, well nigh
irrefutable, arguing that God has given clear
revelation regarding the lawfulness and unlawfulness of any given civil
magistrate. Willson's Scriptural conclusion will surprise many, anger
not a few, and, we believe, be found honoring to God. Though the book is easy
reading, these are deep waters with implications that are among the most far
reaching. It is a very controversial publication based on the idea that "unholy republics refuse to acknowledge Him (Christ) as
Lord of all." This failure to covenant with Christ, as nations,
exposes the fact that these national governments are the enemies of Christ (as
with the individual or church who will not covenant with Christ). They are thus in violation of the first commandment and
therefore treasonous usurpers who will not have the one true king to rule over
them. Their laws and actions bare this out, as they refuse to rule by the law
of God, but rather, as dupes of Satan, rule by their own autonomous standards.
And, though it is their duty to be a terror to evil and promote the good, they,
in the main, do the opposite. They protect and
support murders (e.g. abortionists), continence and permit perversity (e.g.
homosexuality, pornography, etc.) and take no action to establish the Reformed
faith (but rather extend constitution rights to all manner of cults,
sectarians, satanists and Roman Catholics) -- to name but a few of the more
obvious areas of government rebellion against King Jesus. Willson's
father's application of the principles put forth in this book are found just
below as they related to the United States government specifically. Knox,
Rutherford and Gillespie would be proud! 162 pages.

JAMES R.
Prince Messiah's Claims to
Dominion Over All Governments: and the Disregard of His Authority by the United
States in the Federal Constitution (1832)
The reality of Christ's kingship
explored and vindicated from Scripture, with application to the United States
constitution.
The author's conclusions have far-reaching consequences and should be looked at
seriously by all Christians, whether they reside in the United States or not
(for the biblical principles enumerated here also apply to other nations). We,
today, are seeing the desolation of kingdoms worldwide (through wars, famines,
disease, unjust taxation, immorality, etc.) by the wrath of the Lamb, much of
which can be attributed to national ignorance of this doctrine. "Kiss the
Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath be kindled
but a little" (Psalm 2:12). This book will go a long way to exposing the
fact, as Willson writes, that "ungodly men
have occupied, and do now occupy, many of the official stations, in the government,"
and that "Tyrants are yet on their thrones, and unholy republics refuse to
acknowledge Him (Christ--RB) as Lord of all." 48 pages.

Prophecy Viewed in Respect to

A 532-page manual of interpretation
focusing on prophecy.
Full of applications, it makes for interesting reading. Fairbairn elevates
prophetic discussion by helping us to "look into the very nature of
God, to behold in his light the laws of eternity, according to which he governs
the church and the world," which is "something infinitely higher than a
mere knowledge of the future" (Hengstenberg). The

BANNERMAN, JAMES
Church of Christ: A Treatise
on the Nature, Powers, Ordinances, Discipline, and Government of the Christian
Church (1869)
Two large volumes. A classic on the Church
and worship!
This is one of the most extensive studies of its kind ever compiled. Nothing
compares to it on this subject. Regarding these gems, Iain
Murray has stated, "In our day, however
greatly we need an evangelical revival, we need more than that. We need another
Reformation, a movement which will go 'to the root of the mischief' and bring
back the visible church to the pattern of God's Word in her government,
ordinances and ministry. The republication of Bannerman is a step in that
direction... For those who wish to study the doctrine of the Church in its
several aspects as it was held by the majority of the Reformers, Puritans,
Covenanters and leaders of 'The Third Reformation,' it will prove an invaluable
textbook." Volume one deals
with the nature and power of the church, containing a lengthy explanation of
the Church in its relation to the state (which is one of the best treatments of
this topic to be found anywhere!). From there, it deals with matters in regard
to which church power is exercised (i.e. in regard to doctrine, ordinances, the
instrumentality and time of public worship -- with a discussion of holy days,
Independency, and confessions). Volume two
continues where volume one left off, providing a lengthy section on the
sacraments, covering the parties in whom the right to exercise church power is
vested, examining crucial points concerning Christian liberty, comparing the
Popish, Prelatic, Independent, Congregational and Presbyterian systems, etc. Nine appendices
deal with a wide range of practical topics including union between churches,
church/state relations, ordination, and valuable notes on the literature
related to this subject. If you are interested in Church issues, you won't find a
better set.

(of Wamphray), JOHN
An Exposition of the Epistle
of Paul to the Romans, With Large Practical Observations; Delivered in Several
Lectures
(1766 edition)
This commentary has been called, "perhaps the best exposition of the Epistle yet to be found" (J.W.C., cited in the
Johnston's Treasury of the Scottish Covenant, p. 341). Charles Spurgeon comments, "By a Calvinist of the old
school. Heavy, perhaps, but precious." At the very least it should
be considered a classic Covenanter's commentary. John Brown of Wamphray was one of Samuel Rutherford's favorite
students. He was ejected in 1662, imprisoned and cruelly treated
until he suffered exile to the Netherlands -- all for steadfastly maintaining the
principles of the Covenanted Reformation. In fact, A.N. in the preface to this
volume notes that, among other things, "the particular grounds and causes
why he was thus inhumanly and barbarously treated, was his strict attachment
to, and maintaining the binding force and perpetual obligations of the nation's
solemn vows and covenants; his refusing acceptation of the then sinful
Indulgences; ... his public and zealous testifying against licentious
tolerations," etc. While in exile he wrote thirteen books. Johnston notes
that Brown "has been regarded the most
important theologian of the second period of Scottish Presbyterianism"
(Treasury of the Scottish Covenant, p. 339). This commentary gives us a good
indication as to why Brown is so highly regarded among faithful Calvinists,
godly historians and numerous commentators. 614 pages.

OF SCOTLAND GENERAL ASSEMBLY 1638-1649
The Acts of the General
Assemblies of the Church of Scotland, From the Year 1638 to the Year 1649
Inclusive
(1682)
Exceedingly rare, these are the
acts from what many consider the greatest general assembly gatherings since the
days of the apostles. The work accomplished and ratified at these meetings has been called "the most perfect
model" of Presbyterial Church Government "as yet attained."
Sitting during the momentous days of the Covenants (National and Solemn League)
and the Westminster Assembly, this general assembly included
the likes of Samuel Rutherford and George Gillespie. Judicially
binding on covenanted Presbyterians (WCF 31:3), these
Acts demonstrate how these godly leaders officially dealt with individual,
family, ecclesiastical and civil Reformation (including national and
international matters). Furthermore, it should not be forgotten that
these rulings had major national and international ramifications in their day
and that they still guide faithful Presbyterians at the close of the twentieth
century (as terms of ministerial and Christian communion in the Reformed
Presbyterian church). Moreover, they contain "noble examples to be
followed in testifying against all corruptions embodied in the constitutions of
either churches or states" (Reformed Presbytery, Act, Declaration and
Testimony for the Whole of Our Covenanted Reformation, p. 216). Christ's Kingship has never since been so boldly and
clearly proclaimed to the nations by a duly constituted general assembly --
neither has His rule and reign been upheld and actually embodied into the laws
of a nation (civil and ecclesiastical) as it was during these days in Scotland.
Much of this can be attributed to the work (humanly speaking) done by the
ministers present while these Acts were debated and passed. Regarding doctrine, worship, government and discipline
there are few books that will be as helpful -- especially to elders and those
advanced in the faith. Additionally, if you want a glimpse at
the heart of the second Reformation this is one of the best places to look. It may
also be considered "the eye of the Puritan storm," seeing that the
Scottish Covenanters exerted such a godly influence among their English
Presbyterian brothers (and the Westminster Assembly) during these days -- the
two nations having covenanted with God (in the Solemn League and Covenant) for
the international "reformation and defence of religion... the peace and safety of
the three kingdoms... the glory of God, and the advancement of the kingdom of
our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, etc." Over 500 pages and indexed for
easy reference to all major topics.

ANDERSON, JOHN
Alexander and Rufus; or a
Series of Dialogues on Church Communion, in Two Parts. Part 1: Vindication of
Scriptural Church Communion in Opposition to Latitudinarian Schemes. Part 2:
Defence of the Communion Maintained in the Secession Church (1862)
The close communion doctrine of the
Reformation continues to be much misunderstood and maligned in our day. The false
ecumenists (and theological egalitarians and pluralists) of our day continue to
batter away at this foundation of the Reformation doctrine of the church --
while even many of those that profess to be the heirs of the Reformation are
found to be ignorant regarding this point. Any doctrine of communion which does not take
into account the biblical command to "be of one mind" (cf. Rom. 15:6,
2 Cor. 13:11, Phil. 1:27, Phil. 2:2, 1 Pet. 3:8) at a corporate, visible level
is skewed from the beginning. In short, latitudinarian schemes of open
communion (which only include the so-called "essentials" of the
faith) are schismatic (i.e. if we do not confuse "schism" with
"separation").
Schismatic schemes promoting open communion (of
which paedocommunion is presently at the head), attempt to "dumb
down" (to a greater or lesser degree) the requirements for partaking at
the Lord's table. Loose and latitudinarian schemes of communion lead to
churches that stand for little -- or nothing -- over time; while a Scripturally
regulated close communion tends to the exact opposite end. Anderson makes this
very point in his preface to this book, "corruption
is the native consequence of latitudinarian schemes, (while) scriptural order
in sacramental communion tends to make the visible church a heaven on earth to
the faithful, terrible as an army with banners to her enemies, and to her King
and Head for a name, for a praise and for glory."
If you love the purity and peace of Christ's
church and agree with the words of John Calvin, when he wrote, "We are
only contending about the true and lawful constitution of the church, required
in the communion not only of the sacraments (which are the signs of profession)
but also especially of doctrine" (Institutes, 4.2.12), then you will
find a meaty meal in Alexander and Rufus -- for the author not only deals with
the larger questions related to church communion, but also weaves into the
fabric of this book many specific threads relating to practical applications
and doctrinal controversies. Moreover, notwithstanding a couple of peculiar
doctrinal foibles originating from the Seceder camp, in opposition to the
Covenanters (especially regarding civil government and some points of the law),
a plethora of subjects relative to the Reformed
view of communion, church union, testimony-bearing, etc., are all dealt with
here -- and these points are given the kind of attention (along with
Scriptural and historical accuracy) that will be greatly appreciated among
those familiar with the precise views of the "old dissenters" of
Scottish origin.
In short, Alexander and Rufus gives us
an excellent defense of biblically regulated close communion, which Anderson shows
to be God's ordained method of promoting truth, unity and Reformation.
Anderson also does an excellent job concerning:
Calvin's plan for promoting a union among the churches (p. 151ff.); the place
of confessions and confessional subscription (pp. 85, 179); covenanting (pp.
358-384); separation (pp. 92, 132); worship (pp. 10-13, 87, 107, 142, 155,
161-164, 456ff., etc.); the marks of the church (p. 132ff.); uniformity (pp. 7,
103, 168, 205); the Westminster Assembly (p. 169ff); the Dutch views (p. 158f.);
distinctions between essentials and non-essentials (p. 168); the so-called
"glorious revolution" of 1688 (p. 263); the French Reformed churches
(p. 156); the covenanted Reformation (p. 253); discipline (p. 103); attainments
(pp. 11, 93, 137, 162ff., 206, etc.); the government of the church (p. 123);
the so-called "Apostle's creed" (pp. 100-104); the Belgic Confession
(pp. 135-138); councils in the ancient church (p. 104); the Donatists (p. 112);
the forsaking of sin, false doctrine, and false teachers (pp. 92, 132);
occasional hearing (p. 83); Owen against open communion (p. 207); sectarianism
(p. 92); and much, much more.
On the topic of church and
sacramental communion you are unlikely to find many other books with as much
solid information. Recommended for advanced study. Indexed, 518 pages.

MANTON, THOMAS
The Complete Works of Thomas
Manton
(22 Volumes)
Manton was "one of the most eminent of the
Nonconformist divines." He was born in 1620 and died in 1677. He was
chosen to write "The Epistle to the Reader: Especially Heads of
Families" of the famous Westminster standards. "Received episcopal
institution in 1661. Resigned in 1662, on account of the Act of Uniformity (which
among other wicked, Satanic enactments, its principal terms required a
"declaration of 'unfeigned assent and consent' to everything contained in
the Book of Common Prayer, re-ordination for those not episcopally
ordained" and, most evil of all, "a renunciation of the Solemn League
and Covenant. Knowing that the Puritans would not submit to such terms, the
Authorities framed the Act to secure their expulsion" cf. Sermons of
the Great Ejection by Iain Murray [Banner of Truth, reprinted 1962]). He was a
man of great learning and extensive reading, of a sound judgement, and had
the art of reducing volumes of divinity into a narrow compass. According to
Charnock, he was the best collector of sense of the age. Dr. Bates says , 'A
clear judgement, rich fancy, strong memory, and happy elocution, met in him,
and were excellently improved by diligent study'" (James Darling, Cyclopaedia
Bibliographica,
1854, pp. 1953-1954). Includes Manton's better known volumes, such as his
commentary on James and Jude and his Sermons on Psalm 119, as well as a host of

Resource 18. EIRE,
CARLOS M.N.
War Against the Idols: The
Reformation of Worship from Erasmus to Calvin
Eire shows that as the Reformation progressed
the primary focus of the Reformers became upholding God's sovereign prerogative
in worship -- what today is called the regulative principle of worship. Eire's War Against
the Idols
demonstrates the extent of the Reformers clear
condemnation of Arminianism in worship (i.e. will-worship [Col. 2:23]) in
rejecting all elements of worship that did not have Scriptural warrant.
In fact, Calvin was so intent on highlighting this point, concerning the
centrality of worship (and the application of Sola Scriptura as exhibited
in the regulative principle of worship), that he placed worship ahead of salvation in his
list of the two most important elements of Biblical Christianity.
Regarding Calvin's On the Necessity of
Reforming the Church
Eire notes,
Calvin speaks about the nature of worship and
about the seriousness of the sin of idolatry in his 1543 treatise, On the
Necessity of Reforming the Church, where he concentrates on the significance of
worship for the Christian religion. Calvin's argument, as indicated by the
title of the treatise, is that the Church had reached such a corrupt state that
its reform could wait no longer. The most significant aspect of corruption
singled out by Calvin is the perversion of worship, and it is in explaining
this issue that he set forth the basis for his attack on idolatry.
Calvin begins by studying the place
that worship holds in the Christian faith, and he concludes that it is one of
the two elements that define Christianity:
"If it be asked, then, by what things
chiefly the Christian religion has a standing amongst us, and maintains its
truth, it will be found that the following two not only occupy the principal
place, but comprehend under them all the other parts, and consequently the
whole substance of Christianity, viz., a knowledge first, of the right way
to worship God; and secondly of the source from which salvation is to be
sought. When these are kept out of view, though we may glory in the name of
Christians, our profession is empty and vain." (War Against the Idols, p. 198, citing from
Calvin's On the Necessity of Reforming the Church [FREE at: http://idontkno.connect.ab.ca/books/newslett/actualnls/NRC_ch00.htm ], emphases added).
The scholarly
translational work found in Eire's book also gives insights into the worship question not found in any other
English history books (concerning Calvin, Knox, and a host of others) --
for it contains much from previously untranslated (into English, that is)
Reformation documents.
A large portion of this book centers on Calvin,
but its major thrust is to reveal the single most
burning issue confronting the Reformers: purity of worship!
Furthermore, this book's teaching regarding the Reformers (and their view of
the Scriptural law of worship) is as applicable today as it was in the days of
the first Reformation -- for it brings to light the time-tested Biblical principles which guard against the errors,
excesses, and idolatries of the Roman harlot, Eastern Orthodoxy and all
liturgical innovators on one hand and the modern "evangelicals,"
Anabaptists and Charismatics on the other. This is, without a doubt, one of the
best Reformation history books available -- stirring, scholarly, relevant and
edifying!
As far as we know this book may be out of print
in the near future, so those interested would be advised to obtain a copy as
soon as possible.

AUTHORIZED OR KING JAMES VERSION (1841)
"Hexapla," of course, means
"six-fold" or "six-columned" As the section of this book
explaining the "Plan of the English Hexapla" notes, "the term
'Hexapla' was originally applied to the work executed by Origen in the 3rd
century; in which the first column contained the Hebrew Text of the Old Testament;
the second, the Hebrew text in Greek letters; the third, Aquila's Greek
version; the fourth, the translation of Symmachus; the fifth, the LXX version
(i.e. the Septuagint--RB); the sixth, Theodotion's version." The English Hexapla offered here contains the six English
translations noted in the title, arranged side by side for easy comparison and
reference. Dates for each version used are as follows: Wiclif (1380),
Tyndal (1534), Cranmer (1539), Geneva (1557), Rheims (1582), King James Version
(1611).
Of special interest may be the Geneva 1557 version (from a copy of the first
edition), as both Geneva Bible's presently in print contain later versions
(1599 and 1602) of this text. It should also be noted that the notes to the Geneva
Bible are not included in the English Hexapla, just the text. The 1611 edition
of the KJV will also be of value to those who would like to compare it with the
more modern version of this translation. "The notation of the verses has
been inserted in all the translations, for convenience of reference... In
illustration of the utility of the comparison of the various translations, much
that is interesting might be advanced, but which the use of the volume will at
once afford. The varied, although ordinarily equivalent manner in which the
different translators render the same phrase, often throws much light upon the
exact meaning; and when the versions vary in sense, the enquiry suggested with
reference to the Original cannot fail to afford profit while it interests"
("Plan of the English Hexapla," pp. 161-162). Additionally this
English Hexapla also includes "The original Greek text after Scholz
with the various readings of the Textus Receptus and the principal
Constantinopolitan and Alexanderine manuscripts, and a complete collation of
Scholz's text with Griesbach's edition of 1805... The Greek text has been
placed in the upper part of each page, for the purpose of facilitating the
comparison of the versions with the Original, so desirable when they vary in
rendering any passage." This is all preceeded by a detailed and
annotated 160 page historical account of the English translations.

STEELE, DAVID
Notes on the Apocalypse (1870)
In 1779, in their Testimony and Warning
Against the Blasphemies and Idolatry of Popery, the Reformed
Presbytery called Durham's Complete Commentary... On the Book of Revelation [$39.98, 2 vol. rare
bound photocopy], "the best exposition of that book that has yet been
published"
(p. 61n). Had they had the privilege of reading Steele's Notes on the
Apocalypse
we are quite certain that they would have given it a similar endorsement.
Though written in a different style than Durham's work, Steele's notes on
Revelation may be even more valuable in many respects -- Steele having taken a
more decided position "in the wilderness." Steele
also had the benefit of many more resources, having written over two centuries
later. Steele's aim in writing this book is made clear in his own words
taken from the preface,
As this work is intended for the instruction and
edification of the unlearned, rather than for the entertainment of the learned,
words of foreign extract are used as seldom as possible. Practical remarks and
reflections are rarely introduced; the principal aim being simply to
ascertain and present to the reader the mind of the Holy Spirit. How far this object
has been accomplished, is of course left to the judgment of the honest
inquirer. The reader, however, in forming his judgment of the value of these
Notes, may be reminded of that inspired rule in searching the
Scriptures,--"Comparing spiritual things with spiritual." To assist
him in the application of this divine rule, many chapters and verses are quoted
from other parts of the Bible, but especially within the Apocalypse itself;
that by concentrating the various rays upon particular texts or symbols, their
intrinsic light may be rendered more luminous. Thus the interpretation given,
if correct, may be confirmed and illustrated.
Appendices include a section on, The New Jerusalem, The Antichrist, The Image of the Beast,
The Beast's "deadly wound," The Little Book, The Death of the
Witnesses, The Mark of the Beast, The First Resurrection, The Identity of the
Two Witnesses, Sounding of the Seventh Trumpet and The Title of this Book (i.e.
the Book of Revelation--RB). This work also includes various
"animadversions on the interpretations (of Revelation--RB) of several among
the most learned and approved expositors of Britain and America."
Comments on this work include the four given
below, all which were given without the solicitation or knowledge of the
author. The Evangelical Repository notes, "the author adduces a greater
number of Scriptural illustrations than any other writer on prophecy we ever
met with."
Hutcheson writes, "I can recommend it to any person as condensing the
best thoughts to be had on the subject." Brooks says, "I have derived
more knowledge of the Apocalypse from this work than from all other expositions
which I have consulted." And finally, John Cunningham comments, "It
is neither a dictionary nor concordance; neither a confession of faith, nor an
encyclopedia, but a thesaurus of Theology, embodying the characters of all
these."
Steele dedicated this work to John Cunningham, author of The Ordinance of
Covenanting
($14.99 P, $29.00 HP). 323 pages.

DIODATI, JOHN
Pious and Learned Annotations
Upon the Holy Bible Plainly Expounding the Most Difficult Places Thereof By
that Godly and Famous Divine, Mr. John Diodati, Late Minister of the Gospel in
Geneva (third edition [in two volumes], 1651)
The title continues: "Corrected and much
augmented, with additional notes of the same author, throughout the whole work.
And the analysis upon each several book of the Old and New Testament, setting
down the chief heads contained therein, being very much enlarged, is now fully
completed in this third edition." "These Annotations were first
written in Italian, by a reverend Protestant Divine
of the Church of Geneva, the most reformed in all France, and famous for the
great lights of it, John Calvin, Theodore Beza, and this renowned John Diodati,
their successor both in place and eminent erudition.... In fine,
here are choice Meditations, and sound expositions, more to be valued then
refined gold... and the choicest subject the world ever afforded, being Jesus Christ
and him crucified, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life" (Translator
from "To the Reader"). Concerning Diodati, Darling (Cyclopaedia
Bibliographica,
p. 918) writes, "Born at Geneva 1576; died 1640. This celebrated Italian
Protestant divine, belonging to a noble family from Lucca in Italy, is known
chiefly by his biblical works, and by his translation of Father Paul's
History of the Council of Trent into French. He was
sent in 1618 by the Church of Geneva to the Synod of Dort. His
translation of the Bible into Italian is still considered one of the
best." Regarding these Annotations in particular Darling further notes,
"Short, but comprehensive practical annotations; many of them were
introduced into the (Westminster--RB) Assembly's Annotations. The above (i.e.
the third edition--RB) is the best edition." Richard
Baxter, in compiling a list of the most essential books for Christian
edification, after listing the Bible and a Concordance, counseled Christians to
obtain "a sound Commentary or Annotations, either Diodati's, the English
(or Westminster--RB) Annotations, or the Dutch (A Christian Directory, p. 732). 1104 pages.

DARLING, JAMES
Cyclopaedia Bibliographica: A
Library Manual of Theological and General Literature, and Guide to Books for
Authors, Preachers, Students and Literary Men. Analytical, Bibliographical, and
Biographical (1854)
An indispensable set for authors,
researchers, serious students of Scripture, librarians, ministers, collectors,
rare book dealers, etc. Contains
much information that is either unavailable elsewhere or would have to be
gleaned from several scattered volumes. Its ten volumes total 5245 pages. A phenomenal,
theological, bibliographical resource of staggering comprehensiveness. The
first section of this extremely rare set is a huge bibliography, organized by
authors alphabetically. Most known Biblical and theological publications, to
the author's day, are listed. Includes not only English listings, but Latin,
French and German also. The second part is a topical bibliography categorizing
items under the headings of Universal Knowledge, Theology (including the major
commentaries, sermons, articles and studies for just about every verse in the
Bible), a listing of Scripture texts (Hebrew, Greek and Latin) and an extensive
index. The Morning Post calls this massive work "the
most copious, accurate, and well-arranged catalogue of works in theological and
general literature which has as yet been published." Brownson's
Review noted that "for practical utility we know of none that surpasses
or approaches it."
Finally Bell's Messenger states, "No clergyman
or antiquarian should think it needless to possess a copy of this work. It will
smooth many a day's hard toil, by diminishing the labour of research, pointing
as it does, in an instant to works which it might have taken weeks, if not
months, or years, to search after." Don't miss this darling of
a help, which will ease and aid all your theological studies!

Resource 25. SHEDD,
WILLIAM G.T.
Dogmatic Theology (3 volumes, 1888)
Three large volumes, totalling 1879 pages, for the advanced study of Calvinism.
Closing up the labors of forty years of theological research and meditation,
Shedd steps forth as a major proponent of the Augustinio-Calvinistic system of
thought. Drawing heavily from citations in works of the Ancient, Mediaeval and
Reformation periods, and from the English and Continental divines of the 16th
and 17th century, Shedd's work is unsurpassed in many respects. He thoroughly and
comprehensively deals with all the major areas of theology, including the
doctrine of God, Anthropology, Christology, and Eschatology. Also contains a very
useful theological introduction and bibliography.
