Dissertations on the Mosaical creation, deluge, building of Babel, and confusion of tongues, &c. [electronic resource] : I. Against modern Infidels; shewing, that Moses justly declares the whole Universe, Matter and Form, to have been created by God: His Authority, both as a Human and Divine Legislator: That the Mosaical Account, Gen. i. contains nothing contrary to Natural Philosophy: Explications of it, Verse by Verse: Where, of the Powers of the Air; of the Expansion; of the Production of Light; of the Waters above the Firmament; of the Fable of the Preadamites, against Peirerius; of the Obligation of the Sabbath from the Beginning, against Monsieur Jurieu: That the material Elements were not the original Gods of the Gentiles, against Monsieur Le Pluche: The Origin of Idolatry, and what the Heathen Gods were originally: That the God of the Jews was not a mere local and tutelar God, against some Moderns: Of the Existence of Spirits, good and bad, and their Apparitions: Why Devils called Hairy-Ones, &c. II. Against the Hutchinsonians: That the Mosaical Account is an historical revealed Truth, not a System of Philosophy; much less their System of Fire, Light, and Spirit: Errors of that System against Theology and Philosophy: That their Explications of the Hebrew Words Elohim, Ruah, Rakia, Shamaim, &c. containing such Errors against both, must be wrong: Of the Defects of modern Systems, not excepting the Newtonian; particularly, where they depart from their great Master: Whether the Scriptures are blameable for not supposing the Earth's Motion: The natural Reasons against such a Motion, though not Demonstrations, justify them, on that Head: Of the Figure of the Earth, &c. III. That the Deluge, though universal, did not dissolve the whole Mass of the Earth into a Hodgepodge, against Dr. Woodward and others: Physical Proofs for the Truth of the Deluge. IV.
