A Delusion of Satan
By Frances Hill
Synopsis
“Samuel Parris, the pastor, was a man
obsessed with the sinfulness he saw everywhere and with his own importance and
status...... His great terror was of Satan arming his foes to destroy both him
and his church...... He looked for evil everywhere but in his own life and
heart. Out of his denial came the devils that destroyed the very community he
strove to keep safe. It was no accident that Satan strode forth from God’s
house” (Frances Hill, 1997, p.2).
