Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lives of Eminent Missionaries, Vol. 1 The early life of Eliot is involved in some obscurity; even the place of his birth is unknown. His intimate friend and biographer says, quaintly, "It is not necessary for me to look back to the place of his nativity: the Atlantic, like a river of Lethe, causes us to forget many things on the other side." The condition of his parents must have been respectable, and their circumstances easy, for they sent him to the university of Cambridge, where he formed a friendship with a few of the remarkable men of the age. While there, his progress in his studies was rapid and various: to an extensive knowledge in theology, be joined of the liberal arts and sciences; but his favourite study was the Scripture in its original tongues. On leaving Cambridge, he was invited to reside with the Rev. Thomas Hooker, a distinguished divine, who, on account of his nonconformity, was suspended from his ministry at Chelmsford, in Essex.
