Excerpt from Sermons Preached in the Church of Our Saviour, Jenkintown, Pa Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own haud. - gal. Vi. 11. The literal meaning of St. Paul's words in this passage is' Ye see in what large letters I have written unto you with mine own hand. The passage has received several different interpretations. It has been supposed by Chrysostom and others that the words point to the rude and ill - formed characters in which the letter to the Gala tians was written, as though he gloried in his imperfect knowledge of Greek. But the word used means how large, and how large only. According to others, we have here an allusion to that thorn in the flesh to which he elsewhere refers, and which was, apparently, in part, at least, -an infirmity of vision. The explanation of the way in which he came thus to speak then, will harmonize per fectly with the tone that prevails throughout this Epistle - the deep personal affection which leads St. Paul With almost passionate yearning, to plead with his spiritual children to give up the delusions into which false Jewish teachers were leading them; which finds vent again and again, in words the most exquisitely tender and pathetic.
