""A Treatise Concerning the State of Departed Souls, Before and At, and After the Resurrection"" by Thomas Burnet is a theological work that explores the nature of the soul and its existence after death. The book is divided into three parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the soul's journey. The first part of the book examines the state of departed souls before the resurrection. Burnet discusses the concept of the soul as an immortal entity that exists independently of the body. He considers the various theories about the nature of the soul and its relationship to the body, including the idea that the soul is created at the moment of conception and the belief that the soul is pre-existent and enters the body at birth. The second part of the book looks at the state of departed souls at the resurrection. Burnet discusses the various theories about what happens to the soul between death and the resurrection, including the concept of purgatory and the idea that the soul is immediately judged and sent to heaven or hell. He also considers the concept of the resurrection of the body and what that means for the soul's existence. The final part of the book explores the state of departed souls after the resurrection. Burnet considers the various theories about the nature of the afterlife, including the idea of a physical heaven and hell and the concept of a spiritual realm. He also discusses the concept of eternal punishment and the possibility of redemption for those who have sinned. Overall, ""A Treatise Concerning the State of Departed Souls, Before and At, and After the Resurrection"" is a comprehensive exploration of the nature of the soul and its existence after death. Burnet draws on a wide range of theological and philosophical sources to present a thought-provoking and insightful examination of this complex and fascinating topic.1739. When Mr. Dennis found this treatise it had been done by another hand, with notes, in which the ashes of the venerable author were poorly and meanly insulted by low and vile buffoonery, becoming neither the gravity of a clergyman, nor the faith of a Christian, nor the justness and spirit of a polite writer, nor the honor and humanity of a gentleman. Mr. Dennis was provoked to translate this treatise anew, that he might have an opportunity by this translation to do justice to the merit of the excellent author.

Archaeologiae Philosophicae, also known as The Ancient Doctrine Concerning the Originals of Things, is a philosophical treatise written by Thomas Burnet in the late 17th century. The book explores the origins of the universe, the earth, and humanity, drawing on both biblical and classical sources to present a comprehensive theory of creation.Burnet begins by examining the biblical account of creation in the Book of Genesis, and argues that it should be interpreted metaphorically rather than literally. He then turns to the writings of ancient philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle, who also grappled with questions about the origins of the world.Drawing on these sources, Burnet develops a theory of creation that posits a series of stages, beginning with the formation of the universe and culminating in the creation of human beings. He argues that the universe was originally a chaotic mass of matter, which gradually became organized into the planets and stars. From there, the earth was formed, and eventually life emerged through a process of gradual evolution.Throughout the book, Burnet emphasizes the importance of reason and rational inquiry in understanding the nature of the world. He argues that the study of science and philosophy can help us to better understand the workings of the universe and our place within it.Archaeologiae Philosophicae was a groundbreaking work in its time, and remains an important contribution to the history of philosophy and science. It continues to be read and studied by scholars and students of philosophy, theology, and the history of science.1729. In this present work, we shall chiefly inquire concerning the opinions of ancients about the nature of things. And this will contribute to the praise and vindication of antiquity. And we shall make it appear that as our ancestors were not blockheads, so neither was wisdom born with us.
