Sinopsis

The Blood Covenant: A Primitive Rite And Its Bearing On Scripture is a book written by Henry Clay Trumbull in 1885. The book explores the concept of blood covenant, which is a primitive rite that involves the shedding of blood as a symbol of a binding agreement between two parties. Trumbull examines the historical and cultural context of blood covenant and its significance in the Bible. He argues that blood covenant is a central theme in the Old and New Testaments and provides a deeper understanding of God’s relationship with humanity. The book is divided into three parts: the first part provides an introduction to blood covenant, the second part explores its significance in the Bible, and the third part discusses its relevance to modern times. Trumbull’s writing style is clear and concise, making the book accessible to readers of all levels. The Blood Covenant is a valuable resource for anyone interested in biblical studies, anthropology, or cultural history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Reseña del editor

It was while engaged in the preparation of a book still unfinished on the Sway of Friendship in the World s Forces, that I came upon facts concerning the primitive rite of covenanting by the inter-transfusion of blood, which induced me to turn aside from my other studies, in order to pursue investigations in this direction. Having an engagement to deliver a series of lectures before the Summer School of Hebrew, under Professor W. R. Harper, of Chicago, at the buildings of the Episcopal Divinity School, in Philadelphia, I decided to make this rite and its linkings the theme of that series; and I delivered three lectures, accordingly, June 16-18, 1885. The interest manifested in the subject by those who heard the Lectures, as well as the importance of the theme itself, has seemed sufficient to warrant its presentation to a larger public.
