Reflections on some Assertions and Opinions of Mr Dodwell...To which is added An Answer to a Pamphlet, Entituled, Some Passages on Dr Whitby's Paraphrase. Printed by H. Clark, 1707. 8vo, recent cloth.
Whitby was a controversial theologian, never too shy to comment on a passing heresy and controversy. He entered into the revival of the Socinian Controversy, opposed Calvinism and Roman Catholicism, suggested concessions for non-conformists, and weighed in on the Bangorian Controversy. This work is a typically combative argument on the nature of the soul, touching on the position of the Jews and the history of the Devil.
. Variable foxing etc throughout, variable water-staining to lower margins, else good.
