But Locke was extremely interested in the Bible, and he was engaged by biblical theology and religion throughout his life. In this book, Kim Ian Parker considers Locke's interest in Scripture and how that interest is articulated in the development of his political philosophy." "Parker shows that Locke's liberalism is inspired by his religious vision and, particularly, his distinctive understanding of the early chapters of the Book of Genesis. Unlike Sir Robert Filmer, who understood the Bible to justify social hierarchies (i.e., the divine right of the king, the first-born son's rights over other siblings, and the "natural" subservience of women to men), Locke understood from the Bible that humans are in a natural state of freedom and equality with each other. The biblical debate between Filmer and Locke furnishes scholars with a better understanding of Locke's political views as presented in his Two Treatises." "The Biblical Politics of John Locke demonstrates the impact of the Bible on one of the most influential thinkers of the seventeenth century, and provides an original context in which to situate the debate concerning the origins of early modern political thought. 410 0$aEditions SR ;$vv. 29. 606 $aPolitics in the Bible 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPolitics in the Bible. 676 $a192 700 $aParker$b Kim Ian$f1956-$0912948 712 02$aCanadian Corporation for Studies in Religion. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910151629803321 996 $aThe biblical politics of John Locke$92044754 997 $aUNINA
