An Apology For The Study Of Divinity: Being The Terminal Divinity Lecture Delivered In Bishop Cosin's Library, Before The Bishop, The Dean And Chapter, And The University Of Durham by Hugh James Rose. This work presents a defense of the study of divinity as a crucial and dignified pursuit within 19th-century education, arguing that theology serves as a haven and guide for all learning. Rose contends that the value of divinity lies not in shunning science, but in cultivating the mind and character, and in understanding human nature, morality, and the relation of man to God. The lecture surveys essential domains for a divine student—Scripture interpretation, languages, morals, metaphysics, and history—emphasizing careful method, historical awareness, and the practical consequences of religious belief in daily life. He defends scholarly controversy conducted in a Christian spirit and envisions clergy education within the evolving Durham university system. The discourse closes with reflections on eternal truth and the supremacy of faith over mere temporal knowledge.
