Description
English: Fleuron from book:
An appeal to the genuine records and testimonies of heathen and Jewish writers; in defence of Christianity. By Thomas Dawson, D. D. Vicar of New Windsor; some Time Member of Convocation. Part I. 1. An appeal to the works of Phlegon, Thallus, and other Heathen Writers; as Evidence for the miraculous Eclipse at Christ's Passion. 2. An Appeal to the Chinese Records; proving that Eclipse to be Universal, as well as Supernatural. 3. An Appeal to the Confession made by the Emperor Titus, of the miraculous Proceedings of Heaven in the final Destruction of Jerusalem; attested by Tacitus and Josephus; which was fulfilling the Prophecy made by Christ, (luke xxi. 24.) with which Prophecy Phlegon was acquainted. 4. An Appeal to the present Desolation of Jerusalem; as concerning another Prophecy of Christ, (luke xxi. 24.) which is Yet accomplishing, viz. That Jerusalem should not be rebuilt, "till the "times of the Nations be fulfilled. 5. An appeal to the Emperor Julian's attempts to rebuild the Temple at Jerusalem, that he might elude that Prophecy; as also to the Miracles that attended the Attempt; as related by Amm. Marcellinus, and other unquestionable Authors. Part II. 1. A defence of the several testimonies of Phlegon, Thallus, Jul. Africanus, &c. concerning the miraculous Eclipse at Christ's Passion, against the late Objections made by Dr. Sykes. 2. The different Supputation of Years about Christ's Death plainly adjusted; and there by Dr. S's greatest Objection to Phlegon's Testimony entirely remov'd. 3. The Expressions of several ancient Writers, concerning the miraculous Darkness at Christ's Passion, compar'd one with the other; and thence shewn, that such Darkness at Christ's Passion was Universal. 4. A farther Appeal to the Chinese Records, for proving the Universality of such Darkness; taken from the Testimonies of P. Bonvet, and his Adversary P. Gaublin; as also from other Authentick Accounts lately transmitted to the Royal Society. 5. Two test passages, taken from Justin Martyr and Tertullian, propos'd to the Consideration of Dr. S. and speedy Justice required to be done to those injur'd Ante-Nicene Fathers.
