Item description from seller
450 pp. Bound in full contemporary dark calf. Boards show heavy wear and scuffing, with some loss of leather at the corners. Spine features five raised bands with original leather mostly intact, though the labels are missing and there is chipping at the head and foot. Internally, the pages show uniform browning and damp-staining consistent with 17th-century paper. Binding remains structurally sound and tight. A celebrated work of Scottish Presbyterian theology, providing a systematic and spiritual interpretation of the biblical text. Published posthumously, this Edinburgh edition is a vital artifact of the Covenanter period. Durham's preface includes a famous signature of approval from other notable divines of the era, underscoring the book's authority in the Reformed tradition. .
