An Answer To A Letter Of Inquiry Into The Grounds And Occasions Of The Contempt Of The Clergy (1671)

""An Answer To A Letter Of Inquiry Into The Grounds And Occasions Of The Contempt Of The Clergy"" is a book written by John Bramhall in 1671. The book is a response to a letter of inquiry about the reasons for the contempt of the clergy. Bramhall was a prominent Anglican bishop and theologian who defended the Church of England against attacks from various groups, including Puritans and Catholics. In this book, Bramhall argues that the contempt of the clergy is not justified and that it is based on misunderstandings and false accusations. He defends the clergy against charges of corruption, laziness, and incompetence, and argues that they are essential for the spiritual well-being of society. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the religious and social context of the seventeenth century. It is also a significant contribution to the ongoing debate about the role and status of the clergy in modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
