    rial for its removal . The term sZ&zfy , used by the apostle , is never more properly employed than in expressing the action of carrying outa corpse for interment . It was an opinion generally adopted by Pagan philosophers , that , the human soul derived her

    corruptions from the body ; and would then only recover her pristine innocence and happiness , when the fleshy which occasioned her base passions would be destroyed in death . To this opinion our author by the train of his

    jueas was naturally led to allude : and we cannot fully perceive iiis meaning , unless we perceive also the object whence he borrows his illustration . For I truly as absent in body , but present in spirit have already judged , as though I were present , him who

    continue in your church , they subserve thu purposes of Satan , the great adversary'of our faith , by tarnishing its fair name , and spreading among the pure the contagion of evil example . Let them ,

    therefore , be delivered up to that evil principle , whose agents they really are . Their expulsion may brina : them to repentance , and pur » ty their vices , as the soul is

    supposed to be purified by its separation from the body . Such repentance if sincere , will qualify them again to become honourable members of the church , and to share in the glory of our Lord ' s second appearance , which all vt

    us hope to be at hand . " THEOLOGUS
