The Divine Legation of Moses Demonstrated on the Principles of a Religious Deist V1 is a book written by William Warburton. It is a philosophical treatise that attempts to prove the divine inspiration of the Hebrew Scriptures, specifically the books of Moses. Warburton argues that the absence of explicit references to the afterlife in the Hebrew Scriptures is evidence of their divine origin, as it would be unlikely that such an important concept would be omitted by human authors. He also contends that the miracles described in the Scriptures are evidence of God's intervention in human affairs. The book is written from the perspective of a religious deist, someone who believes in God but does not adhere to any specific religious doctrine. It is the first volume in a series of works by Warburton on the same topic. The book is written in a scholarly style and includes numerous references to classical and biblical sources. It is considered a significant work of 18th-century theology and has been influential in shaping modern interpretations of the Hebrew Scriptures.1738. Other volumes in this set include ISBN number(s): 0766168816. This work comes from the omission of the doctrine of a future state of reward and punishment in the Jewish dispensation. The author has no claim of patronage, other than that of religion. He begs leave to assure those who have neither ears to hear, nor hearts to understand, but what concerns the public good, that the protection of religion is indispensably necessary to all governments and for his warrant he offers them this volume.
