"Archbishop James Ussher (1581-1656) was a leader par excellence among the Irish Puritans. His colorful history is inseparable from that of Irish Christianity and from major events transpiring simultaneously in England and Scotland. Ussher's range of achievements are outstanding, including ancient languages, patristics, ancient and Irish history, theology, and chronology. Though he is best known for his biblical chronology, I believe that his Body of Divinity is his most valuable legacy. This volume, long overdue to be reprinted, was once regarded as a classic in the field of Reformed systematic theology and deserves to be so regarded again. Here is pristine Irish Puritan theology, presented to us in a captivating question and answer format." --Joel R. Beeke, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan

A valuable book of theology
This systematic theology by James Ussher is quite different to the modern systematic theologies. Ussher's """"A Body of Divinity"""" is in a question and answer format and although this does take a little bit to get used to, it does help to guide each topic that is covered and is surprisingly engaging. It is also interesting to see what issues were most important to the church in the 1600's. Even though the writing style is old, it is still very readable. The number of Scriptures Ussher uses to support his position are abundant and are very helpful for gaining a greater understanding of his arguments. His treatment of the Ten Commandments is extensive and extremely useful, even after almost 400 years. The more effort you put into reading this book, the more you will get out of it. A very valuable book.
