It seemed to Ernest that he had made this discovery himself and been familiar with it all his life, that he had never known, in fact, of anything else. He wrote long letters to his college friends expounding his views as though he had been one of the Apostolic fathers. As for the Old Testament writers, he had no patience with them.
But if this should lead to his discharging his Secretary, there would be a weak place made. 'Go on expounding, Sophronia. I begin to like this very much. 'Having, in our unimpeachable rectitude, done him the service of opening his eyes to the treachery of the person he trusted, we shall have established a claim upon him and a confidence with him.
He had known Julian since he was a boy but had never regarded him as anything but a dilettante. "You may not know it," he said, "but you are practically expounding the views of that extraordinary writer of whom we were speaking Paul Fiske." "I have been told," the Bishop remarked, cracking a walnut, "that Paul Fiske is the pseudonym of a Cabinet Minister."
Rotten, rotten! my son, and you will find it out. The preachers, now people used to say I know Abbot Isidore did that I had as good a gift for expounding as any man in Pelusium; but since I came here, eleven years since, if you will believe it, I have never been asked to preach in my own parish church.

Barnabas speaks of communicating "some portion of what I have myself received," and after expounding the Law mystically, declares that "we then, rightly understanding His commandments, explain them as the Lord intended." Ignatius, Bishop of Antioch, a disciple of S. John, speaks of himself as "not yet perfect in Jesus Christ.
We do not come expounding a new philosophy, but rather furnishing the outlines of a great world-old teaching which will make clear the teachings of others-which will serve as a Great Reconciler of differing: theories, and opposing doctrines.
Priscilla, quite as much as Aquila, was Paul's helper in "Christ Jesus," acknowledged by him as such. Priscilla was associated with Aquila in "expounding the way of God more perfectly to Apollos." Why was she not severely rebuked for her presumption, and put in her place, and taught to keep silence, as becometh a woman?
"There are several questions of vital importance that have been growing daily stronger in my mind," said my uncle Pennyman. "My friend Thomas Haines has a gift in clearing points and expounding meanings; so that I feel it to be for my mind's edifying and my soul's profit to go to him for counsel." I was delighted to hear this.
He stepped into the fly and drove up with us to the house, expounding to me as we went some recent researches which he had made into the anatomy of the lady-bird. I have said that Sir Thomas Rossiter wore a large hat drawn down over his brows. As he entered the hall he uncovered himself, and I was at once aware of a singular characteristic which the hat had concealed.
