are taken from Mr. E. V. Neale's "Feasts and Fasts," an erudite and laborious work, of which some use has been made. Having now completed his task to the best of his ability, the writer commends it to the judgment of his fellow-Churchmen, humbly hoping that, however deficient in itself, it may lead some to inquire into and value the Lord's Day, and to glorify Him who is the Lord of it. POSTSCRIPT TO THE SECOND EDITION. The Second Edition is a reprint of the First, with the correction of a few verbal errors. And scarcely any alteration of importance has been admitted into the Notes, with the exception that certain passages in Tertullian, Cyprian, Chrysostom, and Augustine, in note 513, have been more fully examined and explained. New matter of this kind has been marked thus [ ]. But the Notes themselves have now, what some persons will consider an advantage, references in the text itself. And a copious Index to the whole work has been drawn up by the Rev. Charles Crowden, M.A. of Lincoln College, Oxford, which will undoubtedly be an improvement to this Edition. CONTENTS. LECTURE Ι.

AND VERY EARLY IN THE MORNING THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK, THEY CAME UNTO THE SEPULCHRE AT THE RISING OF THE SUN. AND ENTERING INTO THE SEPULCHRE, THEY SAW A YOUNG MAN SITTING ON THE RIGHT SIDE, CLOTHED IN A LONG WHITE GARMENT, AND THEY WERE AFFRIGHTED. Καὶ διαγενομένου τοῦ σαββάτου, Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ καὶ Μαρία ἡ τοῦ Ἰακώβου καὶ Σαλώμη ἠγόρασαν ἀρώματα, ἵνα ἐλθοῦσαι ἀλείψωσιν αὐτόν.
