Excerpt from Lectures, Explanatory and Practical, on the Epistle of St. Paul to the Philippians: Intended Chiefly for the Use of Families In one particular respect, the following pages may possibly be found convenient for domestic use. It is the custom with many, on the recurring occasions of Sunday evening family worship, to take advantage of the greater leisure then enjoyed, by adding to the ordinary quantity of scriptural reading. In committing these Lectures to the press, no addition has been made to their original length, as delivered from the pulpit: by their brevity, therefore, they avoid a danger which should always be carefully guarded against, - that of fatiguing, instead of interesting, the assembled domestic circle; and thus defeating the grand object of spiritual edification. Whatever may be thought, however, of the suitableness of the present Volume to occasions like those referred to, the author has thought that he might serve the cause of Christ, by placing in the hands of the members of families a work, devoted to the practical illustration of the word of God.
