Description

Gilbert Tennent (1703-1764) was an Irish-American Presbyterian clergyman, and one of the leaders of the Great Awakening.

This manuscript contains two sermons by Tennent. The first sermon, about exaltation, begins by citing Philippians 2:9-11 and Hebrews 2:9. The second sermon, about the resurrection of Christ, begins by citing Mark 16:9, Matthew 28:6, and 1 Corinthians 15.

From dates noted in the manuscript, it appears Tennent wrote these sermons in 1744, then repeated one or both in 1746 or 1747, 1748, 1749, 1755, and 1759.
