Mark 12:37 David therefore himself calls him Lord; and from where is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly. Archbishop Tillotson, who has left imperishable memorials of his excellence in his sermons, as well as in the traditional reports of his voice and delivery, regarded it as the highest compliment ever paid him, when, on descending from the pulpit, he overheard a countryman who came to London to hear him, ask his friend with evident surprise, "Is that your great Archbishop? Why, he talks just like one of ourselves." And the greatest of all preachers, who "spake as never man spake," must have been characterized by the same sublime simplicity; for it is written of Him, "The common people heard Him gladly." Parallel Verses KJV: David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly. |
