, among whom he found greater sympathy.
Works
He wrote devotional books which were much read and translated (e.g., Gebahnte Pilgerstrasse nach dem Berge Zion, Basel, 1866; Evangelische Gnadenordnungen, Basel, 1894; Eng. transl., The Order of Evangelical Grace in the Economy of Salvation, London, 1838; Verherrlichung Christi in seinem theueren and unschätzbaren Blute, Basel 1894). His Sämtliche erbauliche Schriften were published in two parts at Görlitz, 1772-1773, and Frankfort, 1782.
