Look Inside: Works of Jonathan Edwards

Are you a fan of Jonathan Edwards? The Works of Jonathan Edwards (26 Vols) is filled with nothing but his writing—and you’re going to love it. Let’s learn a bit more about this fantastic collection. Then, we can take a look inside.

THE WORKS OF JONATHAN EDWARDS (26 VOLUMES)

“Jonathan Edwards (1703-58), noted theologian and religious leader of 18th-century New England, left his impression on theological thinking not only in this country but throughout the entire Protestant world. Not since 1874, however, has a collected edition of his works been printed.

This edition, undertaken with the generous support of the Bollingen Foundation, has been launched with the purpose not only of republishing all of the printed works of Edwards but also of publishing the massive manuscript materials in which much of Edwards’ most profound thinking and finest prose have been concealed.”

— from the publisher

Previously, the attempts to publish Edwards works in print proved daunting. “While the previously released letterpress edition of Yale’s Works of Jonathan Edwards is a significant achievement, it includes less than half of what Edwards wrote,” said Dr. Kenneth Minkema, Executive Editor and Director at the Jonathan Edwards Center and Online Archive at Yale University.

But now, with the ability to digitize old writings like Edward’s, we can make his entire works available with just a few taps. Here are the works included in our 26-volume collection.
