Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Exposition of the Epistle of the Apostle Paul to the Hebrews, Vol. 1 The Editor ventures to think that this, though the last of Dr Brown´s expository works, will be found not the least valuable. It possesses, in an eminent degree, all those qualities which distinguish the other expository works of the gifted author - singular clearness of apprehension, remarkable conciseness and precision of language, a sacred regard to the authority of the inspired writer, a rich savour of evangelical doctrine, and a fearless following out of, and giving expression to, what in his judgment and conscience he believed to be the mind of the Holy Ghost. There is not a single instance, he thinks, of carelessness in investigating the true meaning of a text, or of timidity in stating the conclusion at which the Author had arrived. To every passage, and every clause of a passage, he gives the most critical attention; and, though not hypercritical, he is very particular and minute in his examination, especially of difficult portions of the Epistle. His great object, obviously always is to bring the minds of his hearers and readers into immediate contact with the mind of the Spirit; and the Editor is very much mistaken if it will not be found that, in this Exposition, Dr Brown has brought out important ideas, which either had not been previously noticed at all, or only very partially and obscurely. He can entirely, therefore, go along with Dr Cairns in his very admirable Memoir, when, in speaking of this exposition while it still lay in the repositories of the Author, and expressing the expectation, "that it will be given to the world without unnecessary delay," he says: "On the Epistle to the Hebrews he bestowed almost as much labour as on that to the Romans; and the suffrages of competent judges, who have had opportunities of comparing both, are divided as to their relative excellence."
