The book is a collection of Mather's writings and sermons on the topic of supernatural occurrences and divine interventions in the lives of individuals and communities. Mather believed that these remarkable providences, as he called them, were evidence of God's presence and power in the world. He collected stories of miraculous healings, prophetic dreams, and other extraordinary events that he believed were evidence of God's favor or judgment. The book is divided into two parts. The first part includes Mather's sermons on the topic, which were delivered to his congregation in Boston. The second part includes a collection of firsthand accounts of remarkable providences that Mather had collected from individuals and communities throughout New England. Remarkable Providences was a popular book in its time and became a bestseller in England and America.
