This painting by John Rogers Herbert depicts a particularly controversial speech before the Assembly by Philip Nye against presbyterian church government.
A meeting of the Westminster Assembly on 21 February 1644. Philip Nye, a member of the independent party, argues that the form of church government advocated by the presbyterians, under which local congregations submit to higher assemblies of elders, was "thrice over pernicious, to civil states and kingdoms". He was immediately "cryed down", according to Robert Baillie, who kept a journal of the proceedings. The painting depicts many individuals who were not members of the Assembly, because when issues of particular interest were debated, non-members would attend as spectators. Josias Shute, however, died before the Assembly met.
1644 年 2 月 21 日威敏斯特議會的一次會議。獨立黨成員菲利普·奈(Philip Nye)認為,長老會所提倡的教會治理形式,在這種形式下,地方會眾服從更高的長老議會,是「 對政府和國度具有三倍的害處」。 據記錄會議記錄的羅伯特·貝利 (Robert Baillie) 說,他立即被「哭了」。 這幅畫描繪了許多不是議會成員的人,因為當辯論特別感興趣的問題時,非成員會作為旁觀者參加。 然而,喬西亞斯·舒特 (Josias Shute) 在議會開會之前就去世了。
