लेखक: John Philip Newman

John Philip Newman (1826–1899) was an American author, Methodist Episcopal Church bishop and a notable religious figure of his time. He was born in New York and was an influential voice in the religious and academic circles throughout his life. Perhaps his work that garnered most attention is “The Bible and Polygamy: Does the Bible Sanction Polygamy?” This book delves into the controversial subject of polygamy, investigating the historical and scriptural stance on polygamous practices. With a critical eye, Newman examines biblical narratives, exploring the contexts within which polygamy occurred and offering interpretations of scripture that shed light on whether such practices are supported or refuted by biblical teachings. His scholarly approach and nuanced understanding of theology have bestowed his writings with a clear demonstration of intellectual rigor and a balanced consideration of a contentious topic. His literary style exhibits a clear and methodical layout, aimed at a more academic audience, yet remains accessible to a broader readership interested in theological discussions. Newman”s contributions to religious scholarship remain of interest to students of biblical studies and church history, and his works continue to provoke thought and discussion among scholars and laypersons alike.
