A propos de cet article

Vol. I. Frontispiece portrait of Rev. Poole, 4 pages preface, followed by the Annotations upon Genesis through to Isaiah unpaginated. Vol II. 4 pages preface, followed by Annotations upon Jeremiah through to the Book of Malachi. Then follows Annotations upon the Gospels through to the Book of Revelations unpaginated. Contemporary calf over boards with a leather spine label on both volumes. The text "This book belongs to the Heirs of the Late Rev. Oliver Peabody Natick" is handwritten in old script on the inside front board in both volumes. The most likely scenario is whoever formulated the sentence wanted to ensure proper "current" ownership and a previous ownership by Reverend Peabody. Rev Matthew Poole (1624-1679) was an English theologian, a jure divino presbyterian and biblical commentator. In his Annotations upon the Holy Bible, Rev Poole got as far as Isaiah before he died in 1679. The additional books were completed by his Nonconformist brethren. The preface in vol I provides for an interesting overview of the English translations of the Bible starting with William Tydale. This learned Biblical commentary soon became part of the recommended reading for every clergyman in England and quite popular among colonial American clergy as well. The importance of Poole continued into the 19th century. The Banner of Truth website writes: The well-known 19th century Preacher "C.H. Spurgeon advised his students that Poole s volumes are necessities for your library , and gave this testimony of his own experience of their worth. On the whole, if I must have only one commentary, and had read Matthew Henry, as I have, I do not know but what I should choose Poole. See Lowndes p1912. Both volumes were certainly well appreciated for their content. It is rather extraordinary that the frontispiece portrait of Rev. Poole has survived. Marginal tears to the title page with loss. There are marginal tears to the paper in numerous areas with some loss of text and the last leaves are torn, but present. Wear along the extremities of the bindings and corners worn. Some scattered foxing and occasional ink stains. Despite all a well-preserved copy not often found complete.…
