Excerpt from The Whole Works of the Right Rev. Edward Reynolds, D.D., Lord Bishop of Norwich
Goliath used to slay himself; that thei gold, and myrrh, and frankincense of the Wise men of the East, was offered unto the Christ; when I find the apostle convincing the Jews out of their law, and the philosophers out of their maxims; and every1 gift, as well as every creature of God, is good, and may be sanctified for the use and delight of man; I then conclude with myself, that the moral and philosophical glass of the human soul may be of some service even unto the tabernacle, as them looking-glasses of the Israelitish women were unto the altar.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the inner workings of the human soul, exploring its intricate relationship with the body. The author, writing in the tradition of early modern philosophers, examines how the soulââ â¢s faculties, such as reason, will, memory, and imagination, are influenced by the physical state of the body. The author challenges the common notion of a purely spiritual soul, arguing that the body significantly affects our thoughts, emotions, and actions. The book explores how faith, education, custom, and even unexpected events can shape the soul's dependence on the body. It analyzes the functions of memory, exploring its power to both store and retrieve knowledge, and the imagination, which plays a crucial role in shaping our desires and influencing our will. Through a detailed examination of passions such as love, hatred, joy, sorrow, and fear, the author illuminates how these emotions arise from both internal and external stimuli, revealing the complexity of human experience. The author's insights on the human soul offer a compelling look at the intricate workings of the human mind and the interplay between the physical and the spiritual. This book is sure to captivate anyone interested in understanding the complex interplay between mind and body.
