Although this same word is didactic, but not\r\nin the present instance. For the word which, in matters of doctrine,\r\nexplains and reveals, is that whose province it is to teach. But our\r\nEducator<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_160\" id=\"FNanchor_160\">[160]</a> being practical, first exhorts to the attainment of right\r\ndispositions and character, and then persuades us to the energetic\r\npractice of our duties, enjoining on us pure commandments, and\r\nexhibiting to such as come after representations of those who formerly\r\nwandered in error. Both are of the highest utility,—that which assumes\r\nthe form of counselling to obedience, and that which is presented in\r\nthe form of example; which latter is of two kinds, corresponding to the\r\nformer duality,—the one having for its purpose that we should choose\r\nand imitate the good, and the other that we should reject and turn away\r\nfrom the opposite.</p>","headings":["THE WRITINGS OF CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA.","THE INSTRUCTOR.","BOOK I.","CHAPTER I.
