An Investigation of the Trinity of Plato and of Philo Judaeus
註釋Reprint of:An Investigation of the Trinity of Plato and of Philo Judaeus and of the Effects which an Attachment to their Writings had upon the Principles and Reasonings of the Fathers of the Christian ChurchBy Caesar Morgan, D.D. Chaplain to the Lord Bishop of Ely(First edition 1795, this edition, 1853.)"Most of the defenders and opposers of this doctrine in modern times agree in maintaining that the doctrine of the Trinity is delivered and inculcated in the writings of Plato. Hence, the orthodox conclude, that... either the doctrine itself is congenial to the mind of man, and regularly deducible from the principles of reason; or, that it was handed down in the heathen world by uninterrupted tradition from remote antiquity. The opposers of our faith, on the contrary, infer from the same premises, that the doctrine itself is no part of genuine Christianity... I have found myself obliged to differ in some points from both those parties." (pp. 149-150)
