Jealousy in the Brooklyn Divine Sermon on Sunday
Rev Dr Talmage warns against jealousy as an ancient, pervasive sin corrupting church, family, politics, medicine, and clergy. He cites historical figures from Cain to Napoleon, recalls Garfield’s deathbed, and urges envy’s expulsion. He urges praising others, minding one’s own business, and living with diligence and faith.
