About This Item

Boston: Printed by Rogers and Fowle, for J. Edwards in Cornhill, 1744. 95, [1 blank] pp, but lacking the half title. Light scattered spotting. Good+ in modern cloth.

Colman was Senior Pastor of the Brattle Street church, one of the most prolific and best known of 18th century sermonizers and ministers, and "a strong believer in the evangelistic movement known as the Great Awakening" [DAB].
This is the Sermons' first publication. Colman explains that God, evidently responding to a "greedy" Satan, "was pleas'd to make a sudden Change upon [Job], for an equal Display of the Power and Glory of his Grace in a State of deepest Afflication." Colman discusses "the Complaint of humble and gracious Persons, that they have found themselves annoy'd with unaccountable irreverent, foolish, vile, filthy, abominable Thoughts; They know not what, how or why! but they seem to buzz about 'em like Swarms of Flies..." This, he explains, arises from Satan's "Spite and Malignity against GOD and his Grace."
