Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Illustration of the Types, Allegories, and Prophecies of the Old Testament The Rev. William McEwen, the author of the following Treatise, was a highly accomplished and evangelical minister of the Gospel, at Dundee, Scotland. He died at Leith, on the 13th of January, 1762, in the twenty-eighth year of his age, and seventh of his ministry. The following short account of him appeared in the Edinburgh newspapers, immediately after his death. "Died, at Leith, of a sudden illness, on the 13th Jan. 1762, the Rev. Mr. William McEwen, minister of the Gospel at Dundee. A good genius, a clear head, a lively fancy, cultivated by a liberal education, and improved by close study, and enlarged by an early acquaintance with real and vital religion, laid the foundation of that amiable, important, and useful character he maintained throughout the whole course of his ministry. Courteous and condescending, meek and humble in his own eyes, far from affecting human applause, he aimed at an object infinitely more noble, the honor that cometh from God alone, which made him both faithful and diligent in his holy vocation. Conciseness of method, and perspicuity of style, added to solidity of judgment, rendered his preaching equally instructive to the wise, and intelligible to the ignorant. Warm with zeal for God, and compassion for men, his constant endeavor was, to display the amiable excellencies of the incarnate Redeemer to the needy souls of perishing sinners. Not neglecting in his own conduct what he recommended to the practice of others, his life was a fair and beautiful transcript of his doctrine. Cut down in the prime of life and public usefulness, his death is universally lamented as a severe and afflicting loss to his friends, his congregation, the Church of God." An Introduction from an experienced minister of the Gospel, is now published for the first time with this work. The Evangelical History, together with Thoughts on various Subjects, sometimes published with this work, but which have no bearing upon the main subject, are omitted in this edition.
