Book Description
Excerpt from An Ecclesiastical Dictionary: Containing Definitions of Terms, and Explanations and Illustrations of Subjects Pertaining to the History, Ritual, Discipline, Worship, Ceremonies, and Usages of the Christian Church The present work is an out-growth or expansion of a much smaller one prepared by the same author, and published several years ago, under the title of 'a Dictionary of the Church, ' etc. The design of the original work was chie y to illustrate and ex. Plain, in a familiar manner, the External Order, or Polity, the Sacraments, Ritual, Ceremonies, and Usages, of the Protestant Episcopal Church, with an especial reference to the demand for information on such subjects among Churchmen in the United States. As it was thought desirable, at the time, that a book chie y intended for popular use should not be inconveniently large and expensive, it was found necessary to proceed on a plan which limited extremely the range of subjects, and excluded almost all topics of a historical, biographical, denominational, or doctrinal nature, except in those articles where the close coddgo' tion of these elements with the point under discussion furnished a justifiable reason for digression. The plan adopted in the work now presented, is not embarrassed or limited by these restrictions; though it has still been thought expedient to touch only on the margin of the boundless field of doctrinal theology. The work embraces nearly all the matter found in the former 'dictionary of the Church, ' with many corrections and improve ments, suggested by later investigation, or by hints from friendly sources. The department of the Ritual has been rendered more complete and instructive, by the insertion of several hundreds of new articles, based on competent authorities; and by the exten sion or careful revision of several of the articles already written.
