About This Item
Boston, Mass, 1756. Pamphlet. Good. Samuel Cooper, pastor of the Brattle Street Church. though fully aware of political issues through his brother William, was known for his assiduous refusal to use his church pulpit for political convictions, such that people wondered if he had any political opinions at all, since he stayed with sermons based on the bible. That said, if one were to read "through" Cooper's diction and choice of words, one might have just cause to suspect Cooper's of drawing parallels to political figures of the day, which lay behind Cooper's strictly biblical exegetical sermons.
His church was an extremely popular one, for many of the wealthy merchants attended regularly. Among his parishioners were several members of the Long Room Club, including John Adams, Samuel Adams, and John Hanbcock, with whom Cooper enjoyed a personal friendship.
