De Moor's Didactico-Elenctic Theology: Chapter II: Concerning the Principium of Theology, or Holy Scripture

Bernardinus de Moor (1709-1780) studied at the great Dutch University of Leiden, under some of the great Reformed theologians of the age. He was especially attached to Johannes à Marck, and à Marck, shortly before his death, asked De Moor to continue his work, and perpetuate the tradition of orthodox Reformed Scholasticism. “[Bernardinus de Moor] wrote a commentary on à Marck’s dogmatic compendium…which represents the most comprehensive dogmatic text that was ever produced in the Netherlands. In this work of seven volumes (1761-1778), de Moor classified and combined material from the Reformed dogmatics produced by his predecessors at Utrecht and Leiden into a whole.” --van Asselt, Introduction to Reformed Scholasticism This second chapter is devoted to the Doctrine of Scripture, the Principium of Sacred Theology.
