Excerpt from The Works of the Rev. P. Doddridge, D. D, Vol. 7: The Family Expositor: Containing the Former Part of the History of Our Lord Jesus Christ, as Recorded by the Four Evangelists, Disposed in the Order of an Harmony, and Also a Paraphrase on the Former Part of the Acts of the Apostles

I shall conclude this preface with my hearty prayers, that, weak and imper feet as these labours are, the Divine blessing may every where and always attend them; and that it may rest on all who have patronized them, and on all who shall peruse them! May every prejudice against the truth of Christianity, or against its power, he vanquished! May the most insensible minds be awaken ed to attend to religion, and may the weak and languishing be animated to press on to greater attainments in..itl May those that are preparing for the service of the sanctuary (as every part of this performance is their concern, ) be. By every part of it more abundantly furnished for the various duties of their important office! And may those who are as yet but bah'es in knowledge, through the Divine blessing grow by that sincere milk of the word, which is here presented, as I trust, in its genuine simplicity! In a word, may many persons, families, and larger societies, receive devout pleasure and solid lasting improvement from it; that the great God, of whom and through whom are all things, may in all be glorified, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who in all the sacred volumes, and especially here, is the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last, to whom be everlasting honour, love, and obedience! Amen.
