In 1835 he became See also:minister of the See also:Cambridge See also:Street Secession church in Glasgow, and for many years he was generally regarded as the leading representative of his See also:denomination in Glasgow.

To the former class belong the Biblical Cyclopaedia, his edition of See also:Cruden's See also:Concordance, his See also:Early See also:Oriental See also:History, and his discourses on the Divine Love and on See also:Paul the Preacher; to the latter his commentaries on the See also:Greek See also:text of St Paul's epistles to the See also:Ephesians, See also:Colossians, See also:Philippians and See also:Galatians, published at intervals in four volumes. His last See also:work was the History of the See also:English See also:Bible (2 vols., 1876). He rendered good service as one of the revisers of the authorized version.
