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, "On the time for communication of God's mercies," begins with reference to Habakkuk 2:3 and Isaiah 30:18. The second sermon "On providence," begins with reference to Psalm 111.

From dates noted on the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote these sermons in 1746, then delivered one or both of them again in 1751 and 1759.
