God names each star — Ps 147
Scripture: God knows each star.
Ps 147 — counts them and names them all.
Singular stars, not genus only.
Latin XVII. Et certe Scriptura testatur Deum nosse singulas stellas, & earum unamquamque nomine suo vocare. Psal. 147. Numerat, inquit, multitudinem stellarum & omnibus eis nomina vocat. Argumento evidenti, quod non solum in genere naturam stellarum noverit, sed quod haec & illa stella singularis ipsi probe sit nota & perspecta.

About this text Le Blanc wrote in the mid-seventeenth century as Reformed professor at the Academy of Sedan. This is not a patristic work.
Louis Le Blanc, a Reformed professor at Sedan, sets out theology in theses argued against Rome: Scripture, faith, grace, free choice, good works and the saints.
This volume holds the Theses on Theology I–XLIII and On Faith I–XXII, in eighteen sections.
Louis Le Blanc de Beaulieu (1614–1675) was minister and professor of theology at the Academy of Sedan, the Reformed school on France's eastern border. His Theses were disputed by students over many years and collected in a London folio (1675).
The Theological Theses range across the whole Reformed system — Scripture, God, predestination, grace, and justifying faith — in the crisp thesis-and-proof form of the seventeenth-century schools.
Date 1675 AD (Sedan theses; London collection)
No modern English.
