Excerpt from Hulsean Lectures: For the Year, the Veracity of the Historical Books of the Old Testament, From the Conclusion of the Pentateuch, to the Opening of the Prophets
The Lecturer to be a Clergyman in the University of Cambridge, of the degree of Master of Arts, and under the age of forty years.' He is to be elected annually on Christmas-day, or within seven days after, by the vice-chancellor for the time being, and by the Master of Trinity College, and the Master of St. John's College, or any two of them.' In case the Master of Trinity, or the Master of St John's, be the vice-chancellor, the Greek Professor is to be the third Trustee.
The Duty of the said Lecturer is, by the Will, 'to preach twenty Sermons in the whole year,' at Saint Mary's Great Church in Cambridge;' but the number having been found inconvenient, application was made to the Court of Chancery for leave to reduce it, and eight Sermons only are now required. These are to be printed at the Preacher's expense, within twelve months after the delivery of the last Sermon and the present volume is the first that has appeared under the new regulations.
