Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Chronology, Ancient and Scriptural
The reviewer need not be reminded, that even Christ and the apostles, notwithstanding their much higher claims to toleration, met with even worse treatment than poor Strauss, at the hands of the existing clergy.
But our ruthless reviewer, not satisfied with singling out a few German theologians, who have especially O fended against the religion he is bound to defend, and who have placed themselves in antagonism to the truth Of God, winds up by making a wholesale business of it, and sending the entire fraternity to the devil, en masse.
SO loose, says he, have been the German notions, for many years, the most decent of the English deists, had they resided in that country, might have been installed as Professors of Theology, without producing any great commotion.
Poor Strauss must have been Something much worse than an infidel, though nothing has been hinted against the purity of his character.
