While the world knows Matthew Henry best for his time-enduring Exposition of the Old and New Testaments, the cultivation of personal piety in himself and others was the great business of his practical life; and his treatises on the godly life, while little known today, are among the finest ever written. Rich in and alert to the things of the spirit, they reveal, as so impressively shown in this volume, a spiritual mind of preeminent degree in the full and deliberate worship of God. The author here pleads with us to avail ourselves of the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, and to apply this precious and comely grace in all our contacts in everyday living. No message could be more practical or fitting for this age, when the world, more than ever, is too much with us. This is a deep and tender, altogether winsome plea. Would you know the nature, excellence, and application of this meekness and quietness? Come then with the author to Him who said, . . . learn of me, for I am meek and lowly. And all the world will see and know that we have been with Jesus. Living and dying, let us be found among the quiet in the land. We all wish to see quiet families, and quiet churches, and quiet neighborhoods, and quiet nations; and it will be so if there be quiet hearts; and not otherwise.

"A meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price." (1 Peter 3:4) "Meekness may be considered with respect both to God and to our brethren; it belongs to both the tables of the law, and attends upon the first great commandment, 'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God; as well as the second, which is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.'" "Quietness is the evenness, the composure and the rest of the soul, which speaks both the nature and the excellency of the grace of meekness. The greatest comfort and happiness of man is sometimes set forth by quietness. That peace of conscience which Christ has left for a legacy to his disciples, that present sabbath of the soul which is an earnest of the rest that remains for the people of God, is called 'quietness and assurance forever, ' and is promised as the effect of righteousness."

Excerpt from A Discourse on Meekness and Quietness of Spirit Meekness is easiness of spirit; not a sinful easiness to be debauched, as Ephraim's, who willingly walked after the commandment of the idolatrous princes; nor a simple easiness to be imposed upon and deceived, as Rehoboam's, who, when he was forty years old, is said to be young and tender-hearted; but a gracious easiness to be wrought upon by that which is good, as theirs whose heart of stone is taken away, and to whom a heart of flesh is given. Meekness accommodates the soul to every occurrence, and so makes a man easy to himself, and to all about him. The Latins call a meek man mansuetus, which alludes to the taming and reclaiming of creatures wild by nature, and bringing them to be tractable and familiar. James, 3 : 7, 8.

"There is a happy union of sound doctrine, heart-searching experience and practical wisdom throughout all his works.” —Charles Spurgeon Thomas Watson, vicar at St. Stephen’s Walbrook, was one of England’s most popular preachers of the mid 17th Century—despite being imprisoned for a year for his refusal to conform to ecclesiastical pressures of his day. Watson left behind a legacy of writings—including The Art of Divine Contentment, The Body of Divinity, and The Happiness of Drawing Near to God—that have influenced both theologians and common people for centuries. Now Patti Hummel has pulled together a year of readings from the man built around his favorite theme that "man’s chief aim is to glorify God and enjoy him forever.”

"Learn from Me," said the Lord, "for I am meek." Years later, after experiencing many trials and tribulations, Peter said that the meekness and quietness of a soul are two things that are held very precious in the sight of God. But the challenge and the question for us today is this: How can we be meek in a world filled with conflicts, strife, spiritual wars, and especially when we are tempted from inside and outside, and that every day? And does meekness mean we need to be tolerant to each and everyone's opinions and doctrinal views? If there was one thing that marked Puritans in the history of Christianity it was their zeal for sound doctrine that was marvelously combined and adorned with a compelling love towards their fellow brethren, and, in extension, to the whole world. This book captures the Puritan spirit and teachings on meekness that flow from the very heart of our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ. Published in original under the title "A Discourse on Meekness and Quietness of Spirit" (1836, ATS edition). Current edition has been proofread, typeset for eBook readers, and slightly updated for modern readers. About the author: Matthew Henry (1662-1714) was a Welsh Nonconformist minister and author, being most famous for his classic commentary on the whole Bible. He died on June 22, 1714 at Natwich, England.
