SECOND SERIES, NO. VJI.-WHOLE NO, XXXIX. ARTICLE I. FUTURE PUNISIIMENT, AS EXHIBITED IN THE BOOK OF Enoch.* By M. Stuart, Prof. Sac. Lit. In the Theol. Beminary at Andover. Next to the inquiry : Whether the soul is immortal, stands, in point of importance and interest, the question: Whether there is a state of reward and punishment beyond the grave, and whether that state is ETERNAL? A more fearful question cannot be raised by the human mind, than by asking : Whether the punishment of the wicked in a future world, is to be regarded as ENDLESS. No reflecting man can wonder, that so many among us are deeply agitated by this subject. While the great majority of Christians consider the inquiry, suggested by this last question, as answered, yea fully answered, by the Scriptures, yet there are not a few, who claim to be considered as Christians, whose minds are filled with difficulty in respect very * This article was prepared for the April No. of the Repository, but was deferred for the want of room. It was designed to follow the valuable article by Prof. Stuart, on the “Book of Enoch,” which appeared in the No. for January last, page 86 seq., to which the reader is referred for an account of that interesting relic of antiquity.-EDITOR.
