Jowett wishes this to be a family book and exhorts that on every Sabbath-day there is some hour unoccupied by the public services of the Church: during that hour, let their children and servants be gathered together, to hear one of these Short Sermons. The simple reading of it will not detain them for one quarter of the time that he has named: but there will be found, at the foot of the page, many reference to those parts of the Bible to which the Sermon alludes; and it would be an employment, at once interesting and profitable, for the children to look up some of the texts referred to, and afterward commit them to memory. Moreover, when God, by the preaching of his word, has spoken to the family, let the family then speak to Him in prayer; commending themselves to the Lord, in whom they have believed.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
