A Treatise On The Soul is a philosophical and theological work written by Tertullian, a prominent Christian author and theologian of the early Church. The book is a detailed exploration of the nature of the human soul, its relationship to the body, and its ultimate destiny.Tertullian begins by discussing the origins of the soul and its relationship to God. He argues that the soul is a divine creation, given to humans by God as a gift. He also explores the concept of free will, arguing that the soul has the ability to choose between good and evil.The book then delves into the relationship between the soul and the body. Tertullian argues that the soul is distinct from the body and is not subject to the same physical laws. He also explores the concept of resurrection, arguing that the soul will be reunited with the body after death.Throughout the book, Tertullian draws on a variety of sources, including the Bible, classical philosophy, and contemporary Christian theology. He also engages with a number of competing philosophical and theological views, including Gnosticism and Platonism.Overall, A Treatise On The Soul is a rich and thought-provoking work that offers a detailed exploration of one of the most fundamental concepts in Christian theology. It remains an important text for scholars and theologians today.Besides, it would be a harsh and absurd proceeding to exempt anything from the class cf corporeal beings, on the ground that it is not exactly like the other constituents of that class. And where individual creature's possess various properties, does not this variety in works of the same class indicate the greatness of the Creator, in making them at the same time different and yet like, amicable yet rivals?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
