A Critique of Theology and Politics

Editorial Preface Theological-Political Treatise

Preface Chapter I: Of Prophecy Chapter II: Of the Prophets Chapter III: On the Calling of the Hebrews Chapter IV: Of the Divine Law Chapter V: The Reason why ceremonies were instituted, and on faith in historical narratives, for what reason and for whom it is necessary Chapter VI: On Miracles Chapter VII: On the Interpretation of Scripture Chapter VIII: In which it is shown that the Pentateuch, and the books of Joshua, Judges, Ruth, Samuel, and Kings are not autographs. Chapter IX: Other questions concerning the same Books, e.g., whether Ezra put them in final form, and whether the marginal notes found in the Hebrew manuscripts were variant readings Chapter X: The Remaining Books of the Old Testament Examined in the same way as above Chapter XI: Whether the Apostles wrote their Letters as Apostles and Prophets, or as Teachers. Chapter XII: On the true original text of the divine Law, Why Scripture can be called Sacred, and Why it can be called the Word of God. Finally it is shown that insofar as it contains the Word of God, it has reached us uncorrupted Chapter XIII: That Scripture teaches only the simplest matters, that it aims only at obedience, and teaches nothing about the divine Nature, except what men can imitate by a certain manner of living Chapter XIV: What is faith, who are the faithful, what the foundations of faith are, and finally, that it is separated from Philosophy Chapter XV: Showing that Theology should not be the handmaid of Reason, nor Reason the handmaid of Theology, and the reason which persuades us of the authority of Holy Scripture Chapter XVI: On the Foundations of the Republic; on the natural and civil right of each person; and on the Right of the Supreme 'Powers Chapter XVII: That no one can or need transfer everything to the Supreme 'Power; on the Hebrew Republic during the life of Moses, and after his death, before they elected Kings; on its excellence; why it could perish, and could hardly survive without rebellions Chapter XVIII: Certain Political doctrines are inferred from the Republic and history of the Hebrews Chapter XIX: That the right concerning sacred matters belongs completely to the supreme 'powers, and that the external practice of Religion must be accommodated to the peace of the Republic, if we want to obey God Rightly Chapter XX: It is shown that in a Free Republic everyone is permitted to think what he wishes and to say what he thinks
