TNoG 1.6, Q1.1.
Big day! The first quaestio of Book One. And Maimonides makes his first appearance, too.

What's the use (of the divine names in general)?

TNoG 1.5: https://t.co/MgzJW3vtkO

[Merchant Royal Press @MerchRoyalPress]

Common and personal predication! Essential, personal, proper, and relational divine names! Apophatic and cataphatic speech! Enter John of Damascus! The second part of TNoG ch. 4 is up here: https://t.co/jyWXpNCt6H

TNoG ch. 4: Zanchi offers ten nuanced and overlapping ways to classify the divine names.

[Patrick O'Banion @Pjobanion]

It is not without cause that we say that two orders of divine names exist and that the former hold a greater dignity and majesty than the latter.
— Girolamo Zanchi

TNoG 1.3.2 is up.

The Nature of God, bk 1, ch 2 is live!
"God has named & described Himself with many names in His Holy Scriptures, & He did so for our sake, so that by them He Himself might indicate to us how useful it is for us to know who He is & what He is like."

The remainder of TNoG, ch. 1 is live!

[Patrick O'Banion @Pjobanion]

We're taking a page out of @MPooleProject's book. In order to make Zanchi's TNoG accessible to the church, we're putting it online for free.

Obviously, we hope you'll still buy the physical book! We'll release in segments. The first bit is live now.

A whole lot of copies of the new Zanchi are getting boxed up for shipment on Monday. We're grateful for all of the folks who pre-ordered! There's still a couple days to lock a special price on TNoG vol. 1 — and other MRP volumes!

Finally in English. Such good news.

[Merchant Royal Press @MerchRoyalPress]

@rjl1689 Two-part answer: 1) We're working on getting international shipping integrated into the website, but not yet. 2) We'll be happy to ship internationally, we just won't be able to process the order through the website. Send us an email directly!

[Merchant Royal Press @MerchRoyalPress]

@ChristReignsAlw We'll get there!

[Jeffrey T. Riddle @Riddle1689]

This Sunday, Lord willing, I will complete a short expositional sermon series through Philippians (18 sermons). One of my reading companions through the series has been @Pjobanion's translation of Girolamo Zanchi's Commentary on the Apostle Paul's Epistle to the Philippians from @MerchRoyalPress (2024).

I'm hoping to write a review of the commentary that might show up in an academic journal somewhere, but for now, let me offer a short commendation of this commentary here on X. Excellent insights on text, structure, and doctrine, not to mention pastoral and practical applications. Many pithy and meaty short quotes were mined, extracted, and employed in preaching (many long and short quotes were shared by me on X).

If you are a confessional minister planning to preach through Philippians, ditch the modern commentaries (or at least supplement them) and take up Zanchi. You and your hearers will be richly rewarded. This should now be essential reading for confessional preaching through Philippians.

[Merchant Royal Press @MerchRoyalPress]

@Riddle1689 @Pjobanion You should *definitely* do a review!

@Pjobanion @MerchRoyalPress I meant to post a pic of the cover:
