Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Ophion; Or the Theology of the Serpent, and the Unity of God
There never was a time, when there was so press ing a necessity for a plain, and literal translation of the Bible, as the present. The progress of Deism, arising from errors, inconsistencies, and wrong trans lations, is alarming; and when we know that nothing of this nature can possibly be sanctioned by the original, we expect, when commentaries of such a description are published, that some steps are taken towards the attainment of things so desirable. But Is'am sorry to see that, hitherto, little has been done to 'remove those errors and, inconsistencies which have been, and still are, the cause of all'those calum nies, which we have so often witnessed to have been brought against the Bible by this description of men.
