THE EPISTLES. From CHURCH BELLS, May 18th, 1888. "Mr. Sadler carries on his work with unabated vigour, and now we have some hope of his being able to give us a commentary on the whole of the New Testament. Undoubtedly such a work when completed will be of great value, as giving a well-thought-out exposition of the whole of the sources from which we derive the history of the founding, as well as the doctrines, of the Christian Church, and this, too, an exposition which supplies, not the mere personal opinions of its writer, although it is everywhere tinged by his individuality, but the historical meaning of the teaching of individual writers and of the Church at large. The introduction' to the present volume is excellent, giving all the requisite information without any unnecessary waste of words." From THE CHURCH TIMES, June, 1888. "There are three excursuses at the end of the volume, on Justification, on Election, and on the Christology of St. Paul, all carefully written, but with most pains bestowed upon the second. We do not know a better book than this Commentary to put into the hands of an intelligent Evangelical who is beginning to doubt the soundness of the system he has heretofore accepted, and is striving to find his way out and up into a higher and clearer atmosphere." From THE CHURCH QUARTERLY REVIEW. "We hail with pleasure this addition to the Commentary on the New Testament. We think this volume will certainly sustain the high position which Mr. Sadler has gained as a practical interpreter of Holy Scripture." From THE IRISH ECCLESIASTICAL GAZETTE, April 18th, 1890. Incomparably the best Commentary on the New Testament extant." From THE BANNER, May 23rd, 1890. Ordinary readers could hardly have a better exposition of the sacred books." From THE LITERARY CHURCHMAN, February 6th, 1891. "This volume will be found to present all the characteristic excellences of Mr. Sadler's method; and it would be hard, indeed, to find any points of objection to these terse, thoughtful, Church-like notes." This book, a book of suggestions rather than of mere divisions, or skeletons as they were formerly called, has been composed with a view to meeting the objection heard on all sides that sermons at the present day are very deficient in setting forth Christian doctrines. From THE GUARDIAN, April 12th, 1893. "It is easy to prophesy a considerable sale for this volume. We meet here all the well-known characteristics of his writings. The style is straightforward and vigorous. There is never any doubt about his meaning. His remarks are always pointed, and the arrangement of his material is excellent." From THE CHURCH TIMES, February 17th, 1893. "This volume differs in three respects from most similar volumes: (1) It aims, primarily, at supplying sketches of sermons on Christian Doctrine, couched in clear, definite language. (2) It is a book of' suggestions, rather than of mere divisions or skeletons.' (3) It includes lists of texts and subjects for courses of Lenten and other sermons. The well-earned reputation of its author will be a sufficient guarantee for the soundness and usefulness of the work." From CHURCH BELLS, December 16th, 1892. "They are adequate, and they are helpful; they set forth the elementary teaching of the Church's seasons, the redemption, salvation, and sanctification of mankind. Each Sunday of each Church season has several appropriate texts and heads of discourses, and these are rich in wise suggestions as to helpful teaching. There is much simplicity and strong meat for learners. Prayer-book lines are made the rule throughout-the best rule of all." From THE ROCK, November 4th, 1892. "We should think that it would be difficult to find anywhere such a real help for preachers as these outlines afford. . . . Such depth of spiritual teaching is seldom to be found." From THE IRISH ECCLESIASTICAL GAZETTE, Nov. 11th, 1892. "This should be among the most popular and useful of Prebendary Sadler's writings." From THE CLERGYMAN'S MAGAZINE, December, 1892. "These outlines are both Evangelical and doctrinal. They occupy exactly one page of the book, and therefore afford ample opportunity for the preacher's own powers of expansion." WORKS BY THE REV. M.
