A History of the Doctrine of the Holy Eucharist I & II
Overview
This large two-volume set is one of the most complete works on the Eucharist, and is still recognized today as one of the most valuable. The first volume begins with an analysis of the relevant portions of the New Testament. Stone then systematically analyzes each time period in the history of the Church to the Reformation in the sixteenth century. In each period it provides quotes and analysis of the significant references to the Eucharist, both in the Eastern and Western Church.
The second volume begins with the Reformation and continues through the nineteenth century. The primary focus of this volume is the Church of England. However, it deals with other views of the Eucharist as they intersect the Church of England.
The Eucharist is one of the most important elements of the Christian religion and one of the most controversial. This two set volume gives a detail analysis of this important issue, covering two thousand years of church history in the process.
