Book Description
Matthew Sylvester (1636-1708) was a nonconformist divine, a meek and spirited Reformed preacher, and scholarly linguist.This rare work by Matthew Sylvester is an exegetical triumph of proper hermeneutics. He begins his treatment of baptism and its implications for parents and infants by first setting down a key principle of hermeneutics. He follows closely Christ's perfect method of interpreting the Scriptures against the Sadducees and their denial of the resurrection. Christ uses the Old Testament Scriptures to refute the Sadducees' denial of a "plain" text that taught the resurrection (as many do in the New Testament about infant baptism). Christ accuses them of both erring in their understanding of the Scriptures, and the implications of denying the power of God.Next, Sylvester treats methodically the Hebraisms that are used throughout the New Testament. He responsibly exegetes "house," "household" and other Hebraic terms that have been outlined in the New Testament referring to those having been baptized, and what those terms literally mean, as well as all their implications. He explains such Scriptures as the account with Lydia, "And when she was baptized, and her household, " (Acts 16:15), as well as the accounts of the Jailor and Crispus, among others. As a consequence of that part of the study, Sylvester then teaches the further implications of both an infant's and parent's right in the church in the sacrament of baptism. He explains two different practices; withholding baptism from infants of baptized parents, and withholding such parents from their infants in baptism. Sylvester maintains that the arguments brought against these practices, are those refuted by Christ against a practice of the same nature, namely, that it is a "putting asunder" those whom God has joined together; and that "from the beginning it was not so." His exegetical treatment of this line of reasoning is penetrating and helpful to the inquirer of these important covenant concepts.This is not a scan or facsimile, and has been updated in modern English for easy reading.

Infant Baptism in the First Four Centuries

Pages : 115
Book Description
Joachim Jeremias here makes his greatest contribution in a study of the early tradition of infant baptism. He offers exegesis of pertinent New Testament passages, and readers will be impressed with the extra-Biblical evidence he produces to support that there was virtually universal observance of the rite in the post-Apostolic generations. He states his purpose thus: to lay before the reader the historical material relating to the history of infant baptism in the first four centuries in as concrete and sober a manner as possible.
