Publisher's Synopsis
Antidotvm Lincolniense is a book written by Peter Heylyn in 1637 as a response to a book entitled The Holy Table, Name and Thing. The book is a theological work that addresses the controversy surrounding the use of the term ""altar"" in the Church of England. Heylyn argues that the term ""altar"" is appropriate and should be used in reference to the communion table. He also defends the use of certain religious practices, such as kneeling during communion and the use of vestments by clergy. Heylyn's work is important in understanding the religious debates of the time, particularly the conflicts between the Anglican and Puritan factions within the Church of England. The book is written in a scholarly style, with references to biblical and historical sources, and is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of the Church of England and its theology.Said To Be Written Long Ago By A Minister In Lincolnshire, And Printed For The Diocese Of Lincolne, 1637.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
