169724368<p><strong>1697 John LOCKE Commonplace Book BIBLE Interpretation Miracles Demons Angels </strong></p><p><em>"I have always thought the actions of men the best interpreters of their thoughts." </em></p><p><em>– John Locke </em></p><p>John Locke was without question one of the world's most important philosophical thinkers. He published books on human understanding and was the first to describe the idea of 'blank state' of the mind. However in 1685 Locke published the first of his 'commonplace books' in which he described the formulas for understanding ideas quotations and sayings. This style of writing proved effective for learners so many other writers began publishing common-place books to build on the popularity established by Locke.</p><p>One such work was "<em>A Commonplace Book to the Holy Bible</em>" – an anonymously published supplement to scripture reading and interpretation. It provides extensive descriptions on the character of God the relationship between Christ and the church on saints and the roles and duties believers. This book has long been attributed to John Locke but this attribution has been contested in modern scholarship.</p><p>Item number: #24368</p><p>Price: $995</p><p>LOCKE John attributed</p><p><strong><em>A common-place book to the Holy Bible or The scriptures sufficiency practically demonstrated wherein whatsoever is contain'd in scripture</em></strong></p><p>London: printed by Jones for Awnsham and Churchil 1697.</p><p><u>Details</u>: </p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Collation: Complete</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->o <!--endif-->16 310 10</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->References: Wing L 2737</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Language: English</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Binding: Leather; tight and secure</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Size: ~8in X 6.5in 20.5cm x 16.5cm</p><p>Our Guarantee:</p><p>Very Fast.
