John Owen, in the book I’m reading right now, says this:

The very title page of this book will demonstrate, without further explanation from me, the intention of the work I have undertaken.

Gee, can you really tell that much from the title page of a book?

Biblical Theology Title Page

    Wow.
    Gotta love the Puritan penchant for being thorough.
    All my best to you and your family, from my little corner of the blogosphere to yours.

    Wes.
