Excerpt from Morals on the Book of Job, Vol. 1 of 3Text for the reading of the Spiritual eye. And if there is any Book in the sacred Canon in which the bearing of words is more important than the mere thing said, it is the Book of Job.Besides the actual exposition of the Text, this work con tains numerous digressions in the way of moral application, more or less connected with the Commentary. It is from these that it takes the name of Morals, ' and that it displays so fully the character of its Author. Remarks that seem commonplace at first, are seen upon farther study to be full of meaning from his mouth, and to be the result of close and long-continued self-discipline, and strict observation of the innermost workings of the mind and heart.The Introduction gives some account of the circumstances under which it was composed, and, together with the Notes, supplies some information with regard to the Author's life.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
