This document details the nineteenth-century controversy over the distribution of Bibles to the laity. The encyclical Inter praecipuas of 1844 answered an appeal of the Christian Alliance of New York to start Bible Societies in Catholic countries by condemning Bible Societies altogether. This translation by a Low Church baronet includes an introduction addressed to ‘all members of the Church of Christ’, the original document in Latin, and translations in Italian and English. This second edition also contains the original letter of the Christian Alliance.

Marriage and the Sacraments

Originally delivered as one of the St. Margaret’s Lectures for 1904, the contents of this booklet are focused on aspects of the Syriac-speaking Church. Extracted from Burkitt’s book Early Eastern Christianity, the fourth lecture concerns the development of marriage and the role of sacraments in the early Syriac Church. Burkitt finds that marriage was not early regarded as a sacrament and the married faithful were not permitted the sacraments of baptism or communion in the early tradition represented by Aphraates.
