Description
On The Workmanship Of God Or The Formation Of Man is a philosophical and theological treatise written by Lactantius, a Christian author and theologian who lived in the late 3rd and early 4th centuries AD. The book is a defense of Christian beliefs about God's creation of the world and specifically about the creation of human beings. Lactantius argues that God created the world out of nothing and that humans were created in God's image, with rational souls and free will. He also discusses the nature of sin and the role of Christ in redeeming humanity. Throughout the book, Lactantius draws on both biblical and classical sources to support his arguments. The work is notable for its emphasis on the dignity and worth of human beings as creatures made in God's image, and for its influence on later Christian thinkers such as Augustine.For the parts of the intestines which receive the food and drink from the belly are more open than the other coils, and much more delicate. These entwine themselves around and encompass the bladder; and when the meat and the drink have arrived at these parts in a mixed state, the excrement becomes more solid, and passes through, but all the moisture is strained through those tender parts, (11) and the bladder, the membrane of which is equally fine and delicate, absorbs and collects it, so as to send it forth where nature has opened an outlet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work
