A Complete Body of Divinity in Two Hundred and Fifty Expository Lectures

Samuel Willard (1640-1707) was a New England puritan, teacher at Boston’s South Church, and vice president of Harvard College. “Like Apollos, a man mighty in the Scripture,” his theology is both rich and deep.

This was his major work, “A Complete Body of Divinity in Two Hundred and Fifty Expository Lectures.” It is a commentary on the Westminster’s Shorter Catechism, and was posthumously printed in Boston in 1726.

From the original title page: “A Complete Body of Divinity in two hundred and fifty expository lectures on the Assembly's Shorter Catechism wherein the doctrines of the Christian religion are unfolded, their truth confirmed, their excellence displayed, their usefulness improved; contrary errors & vices refuted & exposed, objections answered, controversies settled, cases of conscience resolved; and a great light thereby reflected on the present age.” 

A very important work that has never been reprinted until now; edited and updated to be more accessible.
