A Critical Review of the Gift of Tongues from Pentecost to AD 600 by Samuel L. Preston is a rigorous historical and theological examination of one of Christianity's most debated spiritual gifts. Preston carefully traces the understanding and practice of tongues from the New Testament era through the writings of the early church fathers, councils, and leading Christian thinkers of the first six centuries.

Was the gift of tongues a permanent endowment to the church, or was it limited to the apostolic age? How did the earliest Christians describe, interpret, and debate this phenomenon? And how does their testimony align-or conflict-with modern expressions of tongues in charismatic movements? These are the questions Preston addresses with clarity, scholarship, and faithfulness to Scripture.

This book is not only a valuable resource for historians and theologians but also for pastors, seminary students, and lay readers who desire to evaluate the gift of tongues with both biblical conviction and historical context. It is ideal for anyone seeking to understand whether contemporary practices of tongues align with the witness of Scripture and the early church.
