A Theodicy Or Vindication of the Divine Glory (Hardcover)

1854. As manifested in the constitution and government of the moral world. This work does not profess to discover any great truth or any new principle. It hopes to attain a clear and precise statement of old truths. These truths, thus clearly defined, were seized with a firm grasp and carried as lights through the dark places of theology, so as to expel the errors and delusions by which its glory has been obscured. If the author did not succeed, nor even attempted to succeed, in solving any mysteries, it is hoped he has removed certain apparent contradictions which have usually been deemed insuperable to the human mind.
