Excerpt from The Art of Exposition Exposition is the art of Opening up the scriptures, laying them out, reproducing their matter and their spirit in forms vitalized by the personality of the expositor. The expository preacher Shows how the portraits, the dramas, the theology, the ethics of the Hebrews are for ever profitable for instruction, because human nature in its weakness and its strength, its hopes and its fears, its sorrows and its joys, its help lessness when left to itself and its consequent dependence on God, its craving for communion with God and the realized possibility of such communion, is unchangeable. He compares scripture with scripture, and most of all he throws back on the scriptures of the Old Testament the searchlight of the New.
