Dogmatical

Fri 12 Nov 1756: I read over Leusden’s dissertation in defence of the Hebrew points, and was fully convinced there is at least as much to be said on this as on the other side of the question. But how is it that men are so positive on both sides, while demonstration is to be had on neither? Certainly to be peremptory and dogmatical can never be so inexcusable as in a point so doubtful as this!
