This is a rational examination of the Old Testament to show that freedom of thought & speech is consistent with the religious life. True religion consists in practice of simple piety, independent of philosophical speculation. Also contains unfinished essay on theory of government founded on common consent. One of Spinoza’s most important works. R.H.M. Elwes translation.
