Explore the concept of vitality in man through the lens of Holy Scriptures with "On The Principle Of Vitality In Man" by Samuel Horsley. This meticulously transcribed sermon, delivered in the Parish Church of St. Andrew in Holborn on March 22, 1789, delves into the distinctions between true and apparent death. Preached for the benefit of the Royal Humane Society, the text offers a fascinating glimpse into 18th-century religious and medical thought. Horsley's exploration provides historical context and thought-provoking perspectives on life, death, and the human spirit as interpreted through biblical teachings.
