The uncommon first edition of Bircherod’s important and highly influential systematic theological compendium. In the preface, Bircherod describes the book as a new overview (Synopsis) of orthodox Christian theology, new in form, not in content. His method was meant to address two main problems: attacks on theology and disorganized theological teaching. To solve this, he paired correct definitions with opposing heretical views and added all relevant Scripture references for clarity. Jens Bircherod (1658 – 1708) was a Danish bishop, professor in theology and hebrew. Biblioteca Danica I, 185Not in Thesaurus
