This is a first edition of a sermon by Lewis Stephens, Archdeacon of Chester, preached on July 6, 1735, in Exeter, England. The sermon uses the biblical example of Onesiphorus's kindness to St. Paul to exhort the congregation to support persecuted converts to Christianity. Specifically, it recounts the case of Joseph Ottolenghe, a Jew who converted to Christianity and was imprisoned by other Jews, before being rescued by the inhabitants of St. Petrock's. The sermon denounces the persecution of Jewish converts and champions the protection of these individuals by the Church of England. Published by E. Farley for E. Score, Exeter.
