“What Ezekiel Says”: Newton as a Temple Scholar (2010)

unapi

An essay is presented on the author's conclusions following his extended research on Issac Newton's Latin manuscript titled "Prolegomena ad lexici prophetici partem secundam in quibus agitur de forma sanctuarij judaici." The author seeks to offer a novel contextualization to Newton's text and refutes repeated claims regarding Newton's interest in the Temple of Solomon. Topics include an in-depth discussion of Newton's interpretation of Ezekiel's prophecy.
