John Baillie

Reprint of the original, first published in 1861.

Biskop Johan Dalman har i Böndagbok bearbetat den skotske prästen och teologiprofessorn John Baillies texter. Med över en miljon sålda exemplar och otaliga upplagor senare är denna andaktsbok en absolut klassiker. Detta är en andaktsbok att leva med länge. Varje dag, under en månads tid, ramas in av en morgon- och aftonbön. Bönerna är förtröstansfulla, frimodiga, ärliga – på en gång vardagliga och högstämda. Den Gud som möter oss i dessa böner tror på oss, tror gott om oss, vet att vi vill och kan väl, och förväntar sig en tro som märks i vardagen. Texterna tar läsaren på allvar, är på samma gång uppfordrande och kärleksfulla. Bönerna tåls att återkomma till många, många gånger. Illustratören Anna Blåder har gjort finstämda anfanger till varje andakt och återkommande små illustrationer i boken.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
