Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Scripture Doctrine of Miracles Displayed, Vol. 1: In Which Their Nature, Etc., Are Impartially Examined and Explained; According to the Light of Revelation and the Principles of Sound Reason
Secondly, There are several points to be examined concerning miracles, in order to have a complete knowledge of that subject. Some of these are more intricate and abstruse, others more plain and simple, which serve as a guide and introduction to the former But none of the writers on miracles, as far as I have had occasion to see, has considered all these several heads in a full, natural and methodical manner. They generally write upon some one or other of them by itself, detached from the rest and too often suppose their readers to be perfectly well acquainted with the ideas they themselves have of all other particulars, and upon which ideas their reasonings are grounded; but as this is very seldom the case, their arguments are thereby rendered more obscure and less conclusive, even where they have truth upon their side.
