The lectures were delivered quite extemporaneously, without any other preparation than sincere prayer, that God would be graciously pleased to bless his own Word, plainly and simply expounded, to the instruction and edification of those who attended, and they were preserved as delivered, by a reporter whom the congregation assembled there, kindly employed to take them down. These lectures, therefore, consist of a very plain, unadorned exposition of that apostolical Epistle, which next to those addressed to the Romans and the Hebrews, may be said to comprehend the fullest scope of divine truth of any in the New Testament. There are not any vital doctrines which are not fully developed or implied, nor any precepts which are not enforced in the Epistle to the Ephesians, and which must not be consequently treated of, in any consistent scriptural exposition of it. It has been the anxious desire of the writer to adhere with the closest simplicity to the letter of the text. - Preface.
