Im zweiten Band seines zehnbändigen biblischen Kommentars Biblia Americana (1693-1728) widmet sich Cotton Mather (1663-1728), der bedeutendste puritanische Theologe Neuenglands seiner Zeit, der Harmonisierung der neuen Naturwissenschaften, Philosophie und biblischen Textkritik mit den traditionsreichen Auffassungen seiner reformierten Theologie. Dabei geht er weit über den Horizont seiner konservativen Kollegen hinaus, indem er das europäische Gedankengut der frühen Aufklärung in seinen Publikationen und von seiner Kanzel in Boston verbreitet.
