A propos de cet article

A Plain Commentary on the Four Holy Gospels, Intended Chiefly for Devotional Reading was written by John William Burgon (1813?1888), an English Anglican priest and Dean of Chichester, and was first published in 1855. The commentary is known for its clear, straightforward style and its focus on devotional reading, making it accessible to both scholars and laypeople.Author John William Burgon was a respected Anglican cleric, scholar, and Dean of Chichester Cathedral from 1876 until his death. He was known for his conservative theological views, especially his strong defense of biblical inerrancy and the Byzantine text-type of the New Testament. His most famous contribution to Christian scholarship is his defense of the traditional Greek text, which formed the basis for many Bible translations, including the King James Version.A delightful, slightly mysterious, and warm inscription from the author in dipped antiquarian ink on the front flyleaf reads: "For the acceptance of Annie Harvey - whose happiness will be ever dear to me, though she may call herself by any other name - from her friend, The writer of the Commentary. JWB", and is dated "Advent A.D. 1887". Third edition, 1877. This four volume complete set on The Four Gospels, is beautifully and uniquely bound in matching, full leather. Covers are tree-calf leather with a rectangular panel and blind tooled decoration is at the center of each board. Gilt lining and ornamentation along the edges. Hubbed spines bear five raised bands and are profusely ornamented in gilt, each with a red and black leather label stamped with gilt lettering. Red top stain. Gilt tooled decoration along the inner boards at the edge. Marbled endpapers. On a shelf standing side by side, this set spans 6.5 inches.Volume I: St. Matthew. xxxii, 712 pp.Volume II: St. Mark. 396 pp. Volume III: St. Luke. 648 pp.Volume IV: St. John. 940 pp. CONDITION: A stunningly handsome antiquarian set, we rarely see ornamentation such as this panel decoration / leather treatment, present on these volumes. Mild external wear with light chipping at the head and foot of each spine. The back board has been replaced in similar style on Volume I, but the pattern is speckled rather than tree calf. Hinges are strong and the binding is sound and tight. Leaves have ever-so-lightly toned, and are completely unmarked except for the author's inscription, and bookseller notation in pencil on the front flyleaf of Volume I. An absolutely beautiful set and valued addition to any pastor or theologian's library. PLEASE NOTE: Due to the size and weight of this set, an additional shipping charge may apply, and will be delivered with "signature required" upon delivery. Full refund if not satisfied. …

Description de la boutique

Since 2005, Shelley and Son Books has been passionate about books, and preserving their importance for current and future generations. We believe that virtue and beauty have a close relationship. By reading we gain knowledge. In knowledge we find things that inform our choices and beliefs. Therefore, as booksellers, we see that books have an aesthetic value and a heuristic value. We specialize in The Inklings, primarily "The Seven'": C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, Dorothy Sayers, G. K. Chesterton, George MacDonald, Owen Barfield and Charles Williams. A sub-specialty is our significant collection of Christian Theology. But you'll also find works across the centuries, first editions, signed copies, and even modern books, too, across a broad selection of categories and genres. Customer service is of utmost importance to us, and our friendly staff is always happy to help. We assure our clients books of quality, as each copy is carefully graded and shipped with care. Located in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina, we can be found on Main Street in Hendersonville, North Carolina, (just south of Asheville). We are primarily an online bookstore, but we invite you to make an appointment for an on-site visit! Shelley and Son Books is owned by Stan Shelley. …
