Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The writings of George Fox, Edward Burrough, and Margaret Fell demonstrate that at least these three, first-generation Friends, were reading the Bible with empathy.

It is also a story of creativity. And of hope.Significant, original contributions by Quaker scholars to our understanding of the Bible suggest that there has always been tremendous vitality at the heart of Quakerism--a vitality that supports the claim that the Quaker vision is indeed a restoration of the earliest Christian vision.…
