This massive volume of lectures on Revelation has been out of print for 250
years. Copies were almost impossible to obtain. Old Paths undertook the
task of producing this edition in beautiful form, easy for the modern reader to
follow . The text is complete and after careful research ,only such changes
as were necessary to present the message clearly were made.
The book was originally presented to Durham's congregation in Glasgow
as weekly lectures "every Lord's_day before Sermon." Through out the
lectures are also inserted 25 excurses placed in the printed version at the
author's request.

At the Index of the Principal Questions and Controversies is the following
note: "Reader, thou wilt find the particulars, relating to each of these heads,
digested in the following Table at the end of the book, according to the order
of the Alphabet: And besides, in the perusal of the Book, thou wilt find a
delectable variety of other concerning questions, right satisfyingly, though
but shortly, handled."

The material is presented in a from easy to follow and in short enough
segments for the reader to appreciate. The language is fresh and
interestingly expressed. While readers will no doubt challenge the author at
some points, everything he wrote will in turn challenge the reader to be sure
his is the better understanding of passage.

Old Paths is to be commended for producing this volume which has been
so long lost to the majority of the reading public.
