Bible Note: Hi, Pastor... You have to interpret Ed based on context: in this case by 600 years, i.e., the Dutch Remonstrants (1610). He would not have necessarily know of the Pelagian Heresy, otherwise he would have written 1600 years; or the Montanist Heresy, otherwise he would have written 1800 years. You have to subtract a couple of centuries to understand the historic reference. He cherishes the teaching of these people, with some contemporary adjustment; but it would be a logical fallacy for me to denigrate his logic based on arithmetic/historic weaknesses; which thing I will not do. In Him, Doc |
