Excerpt from The Origin and Progress of Language, Vol. 1

There is no separate work on this subject, in our language, constructed so as to aim sys tematically at the elucidation of this great and interesting truth. The learned are familiar with many treatises on language, some of which are unfavourable to the views here maintained; while the conclusions of others, so far as they are carried out, point only incidentally to the same result as this essay. An attempt has here been made to treat the subject on Christian principles, to compress all that is essential to its right un derstanding into a narrow space; and so to simplify the facts and reasonings as to render them intelligible to the young, and to those classes of society who have no learned leisure to employ in extensive reading on such a theme. If the book shall be found to render instruction and pleasure to inquiring minds, and tend in any case to produce or strengthen belief in the Obligations of the world to the sacred Scriptures, the author will be thankful, and endeavour to present the glory resulting from such events at the feet of Him to whom all praise belongs.

Excerpt from The Origin and Progress of Language, Vol. 1

Tins volume is intended to present an impartial view of the origin of language, and to contain an epitome of the facts connected with its historical progress, so far as that progress might seem to bear upon the more important question of its origin. It has not been attempted to write a general history of language, as this would have been incompatible with the limits assigned to this treatise, and would not have added much to the illustration of the main object of the author, which has been to prove, that language was not invented by men, but bestowed at first upon thorn by the Author of their being. An attempt has been made to exhibit the complete harmony of this fact with the statements of the Bible, and thus to present another argument for the authentic and inspired character of that book, which professes to be the exclusive written revelation of the Divine will.

Paperback. Condici�n: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origin and evolution of human language, arguing that it was bestowed upon humanity by a divine creator rather than invented by humans. The author, an expert in linguistics, draws upon historical, linguistic, and biblical sources to support this thesis. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history of language, from its earliest origins to its present-day diversity and complexity. Through engaging prose and accessible explanations, the author demonstrates the profound implications of language for human society, thought, and belief. This insightful work sheds new light on the nature of human communication and its significance in our understanding of ourselves and our place in the world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
