Works by Edward Bouverie Pusey

  • Eirenicon
    Description: An “eirenicon” is a statement that attempts to harmonize conflicting doctrines. In his Eirenicon, Pusey attempts to harmonize the doctrines and practices of Anglicanism and Catholicism. As a leader in the 19th century Oxford Movement (also known as the Tractarian Movement), he sought to find some way to unite the Church of England and the Church of Rome once more. Pusey wrote the Eirenicon in a letter to William Lockhart, who was the first of the Oxford Movement to fully convert to Roman Catholicism.

  • Minor Prophets - A Commentary Explanatory and Practical: Volume 1
    Description: Edward Bouverie Pusey's commentary on the Minor Prophets is both, as he intended, explanatory and practical. Volume 1 contains Pusey's commentary on the first five Minor Prophets: Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, and Jonah. The commentary on each prophet is preceded by a general introduction which familiarizes readers with important background information. In preparing for this commentary, Pusey studied the meaning of these texts for over thirty years, an amazing feat of dedication. Of the prophets Pusey states, "The prophets are partly teachers of righteousness and rebukers of unrighteousness; partly they declared things then to come, a nearer and more distant future... and the everlasting righteousness which God will to bring in through the Coming of Christ." Readers will find Pusey's exposition of the Minor Prophets both spiritually and intellectually fulfilling.
