He shed more light on things | ‘human and divine than all philos- ophers and scholars combined; without the eloquence of schools, he spoke words of life as never were spoken before or since, and produced effects which lie beyond the reach of orator or poet; with- ‘out writing. a single line, he has | set more pens in. motion, and fur- nished themes for more sermons, | rations, discussions, learned vol- | army of great men of ancient and modern times.” | over the city of Jerusalem, so does he rejoice over one sinner that repents.
