Was an Irish preacher, Bible expositor, and author active in the Irish
Revival of 1859-1860. For some forty years he edited the monthly magazine, Things
New and Old. His first tract, in 1843, was "The Peace of God," and his last, shortly
before his death in 1896, was "The God of Peace."
He was a man of mild and gracious spirit and breathed an atmosphere of deep devotion.
Mackintosh is perhaps best known for his work, Notes on the Pentateuch,
of which Notes on Leviticus is a portion. D. L. Moody is reported to have
said that if all the books in the entire world were to be burnt, he would be satisfied
to have just one copy of the Bible and a set of C. H. Mackintosh's Notes on the
Pentateuch.
