The Church of England and the Maccabees: Or The History of the Maccabees Considered with Reference to the Present Condition and Prospects of the Church, Two Sermons is a book written by Christopher Wordsworth and published in 1876. The book is a collection of two sermons delivered by the author, which explore the history of the Maccabees and its relevance to the present state and future prospects of the Church of England.The first sermon examines the story of the Maccabees, a Jewish family who led a successful revolt against the Seleucid Empire in the 2nd century BC. Wordsworth draws parallels between the Maccabees' struggle for religious freedom and the challenges faced by the Church of England in the 19th century. He argues that the Church must remain steadfast in its commitment to its principles and resist the pressures of secularism and other external forces.The second sermon focuses on the role of the Church in society and the importance of maintaining a strong connection between the Church and the people it serves. Wordsworth emphasizes the need for the Church to be a unifying force in society, bringing people of all backgrounds and beliefs together in a common purpose.Overall, The Church of England and the Maccabees is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the history of the Maccabees and its relevance to the modern-day Church of England. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Church and its role in contemporary society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
