This was one of the first systems of divinity, according to the Remonstrants. Bp. Warburton observes it is a masterpiece which in its kind may be compared to a work of Raphael's finished by Tullo Romano, and in the opinion of Mr. Charles Butler it is one of the most interesting and entertaining works of controversy that has appeared upon any subject.' The System of Divinity was translated by W.
