Morning Prayer and the Litany (1662 Book of Common Prayer)


ISBE on Exodus: Prof. R. K. Harrison again comments on the Graffie ignorance of ANE traditions as they fish around for 9th, 8th, 7th, and 6th sources. The Prof. has previously disarmed, decked and arrested the Graffies earlier.

For Genesis 2.4ff: Prof. Keil comments on the dual-names of Jehovah Elohim in a back-hand at the Graffies.

For Joshua 23-24, Joshua, one the verge of crossing to the heavenly Jordan, calls the Elders to exhort them to fidelity.

For Isaiah 6.5-8, Prof. Henry comments on the preparatory work upon, at and in Isaiah as a result of the heavenly vision.

ISBE on Mark: Dr. R. P. Martin tours the few contributions of Dr. Vincent Taylor on Mark. Wow! Earth-shattering! Mark may have used notes! Drowsiness is nature’s mercy when a commentator is giving a sleeper.

For Mathew 5.8, Prof. Jamiesson comments on “Blessed are the merciful…”

For Romans, Prof. Hodge discusses circumcision.

For Revelation 15.5-8, Prof. Henry gives the third and fourth angel and the vials of wrath.

In the Global Anglican, Prof. Blocher comments on the effects of the Counter-Reformation that, in effect, reformed some things—practical abuses, not doctrine.

For Systematic Theology (locus 2), Prof. Hodge continued on “mysticism” bringing Schleiermacher’s theology.

For Theology Proper (locus 2), Prof. Reymond continued on the OT predictions of the Messiah.

For Ecclesiology (locus 6), Prof. Berkhof notes comments on the unity of the Church, although existing in fragments and divisions.

For Apostolic Christianity, Vol. 1 (0-100) Prof. Schaff explored Jesus’s use or attendance at synagogues.

For Medieval Christianity, Vol. 4 (590-1073), Prof. Schaff discussed Mohammed’s marriages and harem.

For the Swiss Reformation Vol. 8 (1519-1605), Prof. Schaff comments on Calvin are not worth repeating. Schaff may be an historian, but he is not an exegete or systematician.

For Dr. Cranmer, Prof. MacCulloch comments on Cranmer’s use of Peter of Spain’s Summulae Logicales, Tarterets’ commentary on Aristotle, and his heavily annotated edition, 1497, of Duns Scotus’s Questiones subtililissime (20). After the 1511, Cranmer took up his MA with readings of Faber, Erasmus and other good Latin authors. Erasmus began his extended stay in Cambridge in 1511.

EDT on Princeton Theology: Dr. Noll comments on Prof. Charles Hodge (1797-1878), Princetonian, exegete, systematician, Reformed apologete, and defender of Reformed, Westminsterian Theology. Thankfully, his tradition has been carried on to 2022.

Westminster Larger Catechism 128:

Q. 128. What are the sins of inferiors against their superiors?
A. The sins of inferiors against their superiors are, all neglect of the duties required toward them; envying at, contempt of, and rebellion against their persons and places, in their lawful counsels, commands, and corrections; cursing, mocking, and all such refractory and scandalous carriage, as proves a shame and dishonor to them and their government.
