A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This Commentary on the Confession of Faith consists of an analysis of its chapters and sections, with proofs and illustrations of its doctrines.

Two appendices have been added to this edition. The first contains the statement of the representative theologians, Dr. Charles Hodge and Dr. Henry B.

The second appendix contains the only two official explanations of the sense in which the Westminster Confession is understood by their respective denominations made by representative bodies i.e. the Auburn Declaration in 1837 and the Declarative A ct of the United Presbyterian Synod of Scotland in 1879.

Mitchell, professor of ecclesiastical history in St. Mary s College, St. A ndrews.
