This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1886 edition. Excerpt: ... had the power of appointing and setting apart Deaconesses whensoever they pleased. 8. Authorities.--If I could have fulfilled my promise thoroughly, I should have concluded with a large list of books which bear directly or indirectly upon this subject of the Primitive Diaconate of Women. Under present circumstances I will limit myself to the mention of the following:1--I.--Ziegler: "De Diaoonis et Diaconissis."--Wittenberg, 1678. 2.--The late Bishop of Lincoln's Notes, in his Greek Testament, on the following passages: I Tim. iii.

It should be very carefully noticed that the indirect evidence furnished by Liturgical Services constitutes an evidence more cogent than any evidence which is direct.1 The learned writers quoted above have referred to what is found of this kind in the work of Goar.
