More Works of Jonathan Edwards: Harmony of the Scripture: Notes and Drafts

• Author: Jonathan Edwards
• Publisher: Yale University Press
• Publication Date: 2015
• Pages: 724

When Jonathan Edwards was tapped by the College of New Jersey to become its next president, he cited numerous reasons why it was a bad idea. Chief among them: a “great work” that would occupy his time for years to come. His proposed magnum opus—Harmony of the Scripture—never came to fruition, but the very idea has tantalized Edwards fans for generations.

The preparatory notes and drafts for Harmony of the Scripture provide a glimpse into what could have been. As evidenced in this volume, the Harmony would have detailed the Old Testament prophecies of Christ and their fulfillment, explored the rich typology of the Old Testament and their New Testament antitypes, and synthesised the teaching of the Old and New Testaments. This volume represents an unprecedented opportunity to explore ideas that Edwards clearly held dear, but never had the opportunity to fully develop.

About Jonathan Edwards

Jonathan Edwards (1703–1758) was a theologian, preacher, missionary, writer, and philosopher who has made an incalculable impact on theology, politics, philosophy, the church, and American culture in general. One of the first graduates of Yale college, Edwards went on to write and preach in the Calvinist and Puritan tradition that was his heritage. His church in Northampton, Massachusetts was the epicenter of the Great Awakening, a religious revival that shaped the American religious landscape for years to come. A prolific preacher and writer, Edwards is the author of some of the most important theological works ever penned, including A Treatise concerning Religious Affections and The End for Which God Made the World. The Works of Jonathan Edwards, Yale Edition (26 vols.) is the definitive edition of his many books, treatises, sermons, and notes.
