"Jonathan Edwards remains unequalled among North American theologians. These selections exemplify his special traits: eloquence, knowledge of the human heart, and metaphysical passion for complex beauty in nature, God, and Being-in-general." Richard R. Niebuhr, Hollis Professor of Divinity Emeritus, The Divinity School, Harvard University "Selections representative of both the public and the private Edwards give readers a nuanced introduction to Edwards and his time as well as an accessible entree to the whole body of his work." Booklist "The most comprehensive one-volume Edwards anthology ever assembled." Gerald R. McDermott, Religious Studies Review
