Title Edward Hitchcock sermon no. 10, "Christians Weep over Sinners," 1820 February

Abstract Edward Hitchcock's sermon on those who are metaphorically blind to the consequences of sin, in which he emphasizes that true Christians should weep for such sinners. The line "And when he was come near he beheld the city and wept over it" from Luke 19:41 is quoted. Hitchcock has written the dates and locations of when and where he delivered this sermon as well as Bible chapters and hymns related to the sermons on a scrap of paper attached to page five.
Notes The finding aid lists the date of this sermon as 1841 June, but dates included in the middle of the sermon booklet indicate that Hitchcock was preaching this sermon as early as 1820 February in Conway and Waterbury.
