Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sermon: Preached in Trinity Church, New-York, at the Funeral of the Right Reverend John Henry Hobart, D. D., Bishop of the Diocese of New-York, and Rector of the Said Church "He was a burning and a shining light; and ye were willing, for a season, to rejoice in his light." Such was the Saviour´s declaration of St. John the Baptist. It alluded to a figure common and well understood by the Jews, whereby a teacher of religion was called a light, or, more properly, a lamp, a dispenser of light. The expression, "for a season," during which the Jews are declared to have been willing to rejoice in his light, may be considered either as implying reproach, on account of their not having continued steadfast in their regard for St. John´s preaching, or as referring to the short continuance of his ministry. With its particular bearing, however, the present design in selecting the text, has no connexion. The verse refers to "a burning and a shining light," whose bright irradiations were a source of joy - and joy, alas! but "for a season."
