An Exposition of the Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Galatians

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. The times which are passing over us, after making every fair allowance for the tendency to exaggerate what is present, may be safely reckoned among the remarkably periods of human history. The signs of our times stand out in such bold relief that the most careless must observe them, through, with regard to the import some of them, the most considerate find it difficult to form decided judgment. Many of them are obviously of the nature portents or omens, and inevitably lead the mind to think of the things that are coming upon the earth: and not a few of them seem to wear a lowering aspect on the near futurities both of churches and of nations.

These are, however, others of them bright with promise; and among these perhaps none is more fitted to excite hope in the Christian mind, than the increasing attention which the Bible is drawing to itself.
