| Abstract | In three volumes, this study examines the gift of tongues through two thousand years of church history. This second volume tracks the perception and practice of tongues back through the first eighteen hundred years of church history, demonstrating that "tongue-speaking" was always active but puzzlingly different from today's glossolalia. From Pope Benedict XIV's detailed treatise in the 1700s, the book works back through long-forgotten scholastic and patristic debates to the earliest Christian writers such as Irenaeus.-- From publisher's description. |
