Biblical Theology, Book I: On Theology in General
by John Owen
📜
First English translation
· originally in Latin
The opening book of Owen's monumental *Theologoumena Pantodapa* (1661), here in its first English translation. Owen investigates the nature and origin of theology itself — why the term exists, why it resists classification as a human science, and how divine truth is transmitted through covenant. He traces natural theology from its pure state in Adam through its corruption by sin, demolishing Scholastic pretensions and Socinian minimalism alike. A rigorous, erudite foundation for the entire Biblical Theology series.
