Description

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

The title page appears to list two sermons, however, this manuscript contains just one sermon by Tennent, which discusses both the sixth and seventh petitions of the Lord's Prayer (also known as the Our Father): "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil."

From dates noted in the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote this sermon in 1750, and delivered it again in 1760.
