Synopsis

This is Bullinger’s thorough treatment of this difficult passage from 1 Peter. This publication is a compilation of E.W. Bullinger’s booklet The Spirits in Prison and the chapter of the same title in his book Selected Writings. The only difference, other than set out, was that in Selected Writing some of the footnotes were included in the text, while others, more technical in character, were excluded altogether. In this production the more general footnotes are included in the text, and the more technical ones have superscripts and are added as endnotes. Thus the reader does not miss out on anything Bullinger wrote.

About this title

About the Author:

Ethelbert W. Bullinger D.D. (1837-1913) was a direct descendent of Heinrich Bullinger, the great Swiss reformer who carried on Zwingli s work after the latter had been killed in war. E.W. Bullinger was brought up a Methodist but sang in the choir of Canterbury Cathedral and trained for and became an Anglican minister before becoming secretary of the Trinitarian Bible Society. He was a man of intense spirituality and made a number of outstanding contributions to biblical scholarship and broad-based evangelical Christianity.

Review:

This booklet is a compilation of E.W. Bullinger s booklet The Spirits in Prison and the chapter of the same title in his book Selected Writings. The only difference, other than set out, was that in Selected Writing some of the footnotes were included in the text, while others, more technical in character, were excluded altogether. In this production the more general footnotes are included in the text, and the more technical ones have superscripts and are added as endnotes on pages 26-29. --Michael Penny
