The works of Richard Hurd, volume 6 (of 8)

This collection gathers sermons delivered at Lincoln’s Inn between 1765 and 1776, together with an extended discourse on Christ’s driving the merchants from the temple, offering sustained expositions of biblical passages that treat ministerial duty, conscience, moral conduct, law and grace, charity, humility, and the relation between knowledge and piety. The addresses pair close scriptural reading with practical application, advising clergy and lay audiences on pastoral prudence, self-examination, and public virtue while using historical and cultural context to illuminate theological points. A recurring theme is the preacher’s responsibility to supply both established and fresh instruction so Christian teaching shapes individual conscience and communal behaviour.
