THEOLOGICAL WORKS LATELY PUBLISHED BY OLIVER & BOYD, EDINBURGH; AND SIMPKIN & MARSHALL, LONDON. BY THE AUTHOR OF THE MORNING AND EVENING SACRIFICE." I. THE TRUE PLAN of a LIVING TEMPLE; or Man considered in his Proper Relation to the Ordinary Occupations and Pursuits of Life. In 3 vols 12mo, price £1, 2s. 6d. boards. MONTHLY MAGAZINE.-Nothing short of copious extracts could present an adequate notion of the large and catholic views of the work-the original and independent conceptions-the preterition of technicalities the intensity of feeling-the fervour of eloquence, not flighty and flashy, but full and argumentative and the deep sincerity and conviction that pervade every page of these earnest effusions. The author is obviously one who is little inclined to respect artificial creeds and exclusive articles: he looks for the spirit of the question, and seems to have found it. LITERARY GAZETTE. The author has acquired much popularity on religious subjects, which these volumes are well calculated to increase. They possess a good deal of enthusiasm, together with rational piety; and are eminently deserving of praise for their effort at dispersing those gloomy views which are entertained by certain sects, and which would convert this fair natural world into a dungeon fit only for hypocrites and ascetics. The notes and illustrations, which occupy nearly all the third volume, are particularly interesting. SPECTATOR.-The object of these volumes is to inculcate the principle, that the best preparation which a man can make for the honours of the future, is a religious discharge of the duties prescribed to him by his station in the present life. On this eternal truth, the very excellent author has given a series of essays, which the scholar will peruse with pleasure, from the clearness and cogency of the arguments, and the religionist with edification, from the sound and rational piety of the sentiments. ATLAS. Uniting rational enthusiasm-we contend it is not a contradiction-with true piety, the author is just the writer well calculated to impress upon the religious public sound notions of the temporal duties and obligations of men, consistently with a pious observance of their higher responsibilities. PHRENOLOGICAL JOURNAL.-Eloquence, vigour of elucidation, intrepidity, and comprehensiveness of thinking, are frequently displayed in this work. There is also a delightful aspiration after every view of human nature that is ennobling; a warm sensibility to the beauties of nature and of art; and, in short, a combination of philosophy, knowledge of the world, and religion, that is at once pleasing, invigorating, and instructive. EDINBURGH LITERARY JOURNAL.-We know no author who has gone so deep into the actual condition of human nature, or who sees so distinctly what are its capacities, its defects, its obligations. In other words, we may say, that we know of no religious writer who has marked with so attentive an eye, and traced so accurately, the representations upon this subject made by Him, who, more than any other teacher, "knew what was in man ;" and it is by following out the lessons, and even the most minute hints, given by that Divine Teacher, that this great work has been built up to be what we believe it really is, among the most perfect and comprehensive schemes of Christian ethics which have yet been presented to the world. EDINBURGH LITERARY GAZETTE.-It abounds with the noblest and most elevating views of the nature and destiny of man-of the relation in which he stands to his Maker, and the other orders of intelligent beings and of the purposes for which he was placed in this corner of the Almighty's dominions; while the whole is treated with such simplicity and fervour as cannot fail to recommend it highly to every rightthinking mind. EDINBURGH WEEKLY JOURNAL.-We had no small degree of gratification in reviewing the former productions of this author; and, although we then expressed our favourable opinion of his talents, yet the present work is perhaps of a higher character for intellectual power and originality than we were prepared to expect from his preceding writings. The work now before us may be considered as a grand system of Christian morals, such as has not been attempted on the same scale either in this country or on the continent. Several writers, particularly in Germany, have indeed produced illustrations of some detached portions of Christian morality; but no author, we think, has, before the present work appeared, furnished us with an unrivalled "Temple," of perfect symmetry in all its parts. SCOTSMAN. The author is distinguished for the comprehension of his views, the good sense which he constantly displays, and the clearness and impressiveness of his composition. A |
