Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Spots on the Sun, or the Plumb-Line Papers: Being a Series of Essays, or Critical Examinations of Difficult Passages of Scripture; Together With a Careful Inquiry Into Certain Dogmas of the Church
The subjects discussed in the following papers are among those which, in the course of some twenty or thirty years, have accumulated upon the author's study-table. They have been gathered in consequence, or as the fruit of his endeavor to obey the injunction, prove all things hold fast that which is good.
The course adopted was essentially the following - We aimed to have some one or more of those difficult questions or passages of scripture, which we occasionally found, where we could call it up in a moment, investigate it as far as possible, for the time, then lay it aside. Considerations for, and against, we carefully weighed and faithfully marked, till the question was regarded as effectually settled.
