At the end of this Commentary, besides a large English Table of all the material points treated of by the Author, I have added an Alphabetical Index of above seven hundred Greek words, which thou mayest find learnedly and dexterously explicated, either ⟨image 3⟩by their Etymologies, Synovimaes, or various acceptations, (if they be [Greek or Hebrew],) or if not, yet thou hast the clearest and most familiar explication that each word is capable of. For it was one part of the Authors excellency, that constantly in the Course of his Ministry he did endeavour to instill into the heads of his Auditors the fullest sense of the Spirit in a familiar way, though veiled under many significant simple, compound, or decomposite notions, Such was his depth of Judgement, that after he had conferred place with place, he could suddenly methodize the different senses, and give forth the quintessence of all his Collations, so as the meanest Capacity might be edified by him.
