Excerpt from A Harmony of the Four Gospels: Founded on the Arrangement of the Harmonia Evangelica The objects in view in compiling the present work, have been to give such a Harmony of the Gospels as might furnish heads of families with a suitable work for family instruction: schools with a profitable school book; and Christians in general with a combined statement of the different accounts given of our Lord by the Evangelists, so that all may have a more distinct and full View of his Divine and glorious character.
