Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Palace of the Great King: Or the Power, Wisdom and Goodness of God, Illustrated in the Multiplicity and Variety of His Works
As we compare the heavenly bodies, system with system, star with star, and planet with planet, we shall discover the same infinite variety pervading the whole.
The field Of illustration is as broad as the entire arena of nature's works. The mineral, the vegetable, the animal worlds, are replete with examples to our purpose; so is the condition and history of man, the ordinary disp'ensations Of Providence, and the means of man's recovery from the fall. All indicate the profuse expenditure Of the Divine goodness so to diversify and beautify his works and to vary his ways, as the most effectually to secure the happiness Of his intelligent creatures. Who but God would have thought Of the ten thousand ways he has adopted by which to make man happy?
