About this title

Synopsis:

Excerpt from An Analysis or Familiar Explanation of the Gospels: As Read at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, on the Different Sundays and Festivals Throughout the Year The following pages were the production of the pen of the late Rev. James Appleton, known to the Catholic Public by his Discourses, and his Theophilus, or Pupil Instructed. The design of this Analysis or familiar Explication of the Gospels, read in the Mass on Sundays and Festivals, is declared by the Author himself in his Introduction. Although, as he there observes, we have several Books of Instruction which derive their lessons from the Gospel of each Sunday and Feast, yet in general they confine themselves to one single verse, selected for that purpose. In the present Analysis, a familiar, and, so far as was practicable, a connected explanation of the Whole Gospel for each Sunday and Festival is delivered. Thus in each Instruction several important truths will he found collected, and presented to the reader in a plain, familiar style, which, though it cannot boast either the depth of reasoning of Gother, or the affecting simplicity of Baker, will, it is presumed, be deemed well adapted to promote the end which the truly pious Author had in view - the improvement of the Catholic Reader in the knowledge and practice of Christian Virtue.
