Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Address Delivered in the First Presbyterian Church, New York: At the Funeral of Robert Lenox, Esq., On the 16th of December, 1839
IN the account of the creation of man, we are told that the Lord God formed him of the dust of the ground, and breath ed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul. Human persons, therefore, have a material body formed of the dust, and a spiritual nature, which is an emanation from the author of their being. The body in its present state is only the temporary habitation of the spirit during its sojourn upon the earth.
