Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Jonathan Edwards: Union Meeting of the Berkshire North and South Conferences, Stockbridge, Massachusetts, October Fifth, Oration It is not in the Valley of Chamouni but from Geneva, sixty miles away, that one gains the truest impression of the comparative size and majesty of Mont Blanc. Against the distant horizon the soaring, snowy outlines of the monarch of mountains are plainly seen far above the surrounding peaks. Distance is likewise necessary for a just, comparative estimate of men. That a man should be visible above the horizon at all two hundred years after his birth is in itself a sign of greatness. Certainly the fact that groups of thoughtful persons should gather together in various places after that lapse of time for the study, appreciation, and commemoration of a man proves his pre-eminence. No one today of any school or creed can doubt the intellectual and moral greatness or spiritual elevation of Jonathan Edwards, nor can the student of religious and educational development in our country doubt the exceeding beneficence and fruitfulness of the movements in the world of thought and life which had their origin in him.
