The collection contains twentyfour texts expressed in clear and precise prose and arranged to correspond with the Church calendar.First published in 1898 this collection of sermons by the Irishborn Cambridge biblical scholar and theologian F. J. A. Hort distils over thirty years work as a pastor. Compiled by the authors son six years after Horts death this book contains twentyfour sermons organised to correspond with the Church calendar. Written for school children Cambridge college chapels and the congregation of Horts own parish in Hertfordshire many of the sermons in this collection were delivered on more than one occasion and have consequently been revised many times. As Horts son points out they appear here in their ultimate form perfected over three decades. First preached over a century ago Horts lucid prose makes his work easily accessible. Written in deceptively simple language the care and precision found in Horts betterknown academic work are also evident in his sermons which are articulated with grace and clarity.1.
