The Litany (1662 Book of Common Prayer)

For Psalm 18, Prof. Calvin comments on “To the faithful you show yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless.”

ISBE on Exodus: Prof. R. K. Harrison is piecing together what he thinks are scrolls internal to Exodus. That is, fragments put together by Moses.

For Genesis 1.21ff: Prof. Keil is oddly chattering about science and carnivorous animals who were, initially, herbivorous. A weird section.

For Joshua 22, Joshua is summarizing the land-allocations of previous chapters.

For Isaiah 6.5-8, Prof. Henry describes the stunning terror and awe of the heavenly Throne-room.

ISBE on Mark: Dr. R. P. Martin adds nothing more than what he’s already said.

For Mathew 5.1ff., Prof. Jamiesson discusses the beauty of piety in those in the kingdom of heaven.

For Romans, Prof. Hodge gives the overview of Romans 2.17-29 without exegetical,bunny rabbit trails.

For Revelation 14.13-20, Prof. Henry continues the discuss the final harvest.

In the Global Anglican, Dr. Blocher thinks OT models of prophets applies to the Reformers.

For Systematic Theology (locus 2), Prof. Hodge takes 20 pages to tell us about faith and the authority of the Bible.

For Theology Proper (locus 2), Prof. Reymond notes instances of intra-Trinitarian communications, as revealed in the Bible, e.g. “The Lord said to my Lord.”

For Ecclesiology (locus 6), Prof. Berkhof does few favors to the reader about the church as an “organism” and “institution,” a rehash of invisible and visible. More talking doesn’t make it more it more true, necessarily.

For Apostolic Christianity, Vol. 1 (0-100) Prof. Schaff describes the enduring ethnic group, descendants of Abraham, Jews, across the centuries and scattered variously. Yet, largely coherent.

For Medieval Christianity, Vol. 4 (590-1073), Prof. Schaff continues to deal with Mohammed’s life. Aside from being ignorant and illiterate, one fact emerges: he was an epileptic.

For the Swiss Reformation Vol. 8 (1519-1605), Prof. Schaff concludes Peter Viret’s ministry.

EDT on Princeton Theology: notes the old Princeton stressed the authority and reliability of Scripture and the reliability of reason. Francis Turretin and the Westminster Standards shaped the school with Archibald Alexander as its first President for the Seminary’s opening in 1812.

For the Creeds of Christendom, Prof. Schaff continues up to the great day of the proclamation of Papal Infalliblism. 535 “Placet” votes.

1994 CCC: avers Mary as the “perfect” example of faith, a muted circumlocution that avoids the infallible utterance of Mary’s immaculate conception. C’mon, B16, put it out there, old boy.

Westminster Larger Catechism 123:

Q. 123. Which is the fifth commandment?
A. The fifth commandment is, Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
