Lectures on the Apocalypse

Excerpt from Lectures on the Apocalypse

It is this series of New Testament prophecies which has of late years, in a more especial manner, engaged the attention, and employed the pens of so many writers among us: and as they form the subject matter of the Apocalypse, the press has teemed with publications, professedly intended to illustrate that mysterious book. The truth is, that when I take a review of their number, and consider the learning and talent that has been employed upon the subject, more especially during the last forty years, I feel myself imperiously called upon to offer a serious apology for presuming to add another volume to the mass already before the public.
