Synopsis

The Sacred Doctrine of Divinity is an important Puritan systematic theology in Christian, Reformed, or Calvinistic systematic theologies and yet, it might also be described as a formal Biblical theology. This work by Henry Finch rests comfortably on the bookshelf of Puritan theologies as those of Wolfgang Musculus, Peter Vermigli, Edmund Bunny, John Prime, and Girolamo Zanchi.Published in 1589 by Sir Henry French, member of Parliament, lawyer, and Puritan, the Sacred Doctrine of Divinity was written in Early Modern English, similar to Elizabethan or Shakespearean English.• This present work is the first translation into contemporary English of Sir Henry French's The Sacred Doctrine of Divinity.• Grammatical changes were necessary to adapt this work for contemporary readers, without theological license or correction, but balanced in an attempt to stay faithful to the original structure and theological impact.• Glosses and marginal commentary are annotated with the use of footnotes.• The text has been corrected for the usage of medial s (ſ), and v-initial/u-middle occurrences (e.g., haue for have, vpon for upon).• Usage of thy/thou are retained only in the section on the Lord’s Prayer, as it seemed fitting to preserve the impact and feel of the original text.Uppercase He and Him reflect a common stylistic and reverential purpose, yet the reader should not infer a lack of respect on behalf of Puritans writing in the style of their day.
