Beschreibung:
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Sacred Scripture must be accurately understood, before it can 'be judiciously applied. Besides, the moral and spiritual lessons of the gospels will suggest themselves to each one in particular, as he reads the story or meditates upon its details. They would have enlarged the present volume considerably, without proportionately increasing its value. Though it may seem less dignified to state controverted points as such, than authoritatively to determine them, still the former course has seemed more useful to the writer; he has therefore contented himself for the most part with assign ing a greater or less probability to the various opinions.
