Heralds of a Liberal Faith: The Prophets is a book written by Samuel Atkins Eliot and published in 1910. The book is a collection of essays that explore the lives and teachings of the prophets of the Old Testament, including Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel. Eliot approaches the prophets from a liberal theological perspective, emphasizing their social and ethical teachings rather than their supernatural or apocalyptic visions. He argues that the prophets were not merely foretellers of future events, but moral leaders who challenged the political and religious establishments of their time to pursue justice and righteousness.The book is divided into chapters, each focusing on a different prophet and their message. Eliot provides historical context for each prophet, discussing the political and social conditions of their time and how their teachings were received by their contemporaries. He also draws connections between the prophets and modern-day social issues, such as poverty, war, and environmental degradation.Overall, Heralds of a Liberal Faith: The Prophets is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the prophetic tradition in Judaism and Christianity. It offers a fresh perspective on these ancient texts and their relevance to contemporary social and ethical issues.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
