No dust jacket. Adam Clarke (1762 - 1832) was a British Wesleyan Methodist theologian and biblical scholar best known, perhaps, for his multi-volume commentary on the Bible. In 1778, at the age of fourteen, Rev. John Wesley invited him to become a pupil in the Methodist seminary lately established at Kingswood, Bristol. In 1779, he converted from Anglicanism to Methodism after listening to a preacher. Clarke was an early critic of slavery based on his understanding of Isaiah 58:6. This volume is a classic Wesleyan treatise, as well as a handy and valuable compendium of his theology. NOTE: This is the original 2nd edition and not a later reprint edition.…

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. Complete six-volume vintage hardcover set of Adam Clarke's monumental biblical commentary, published by Abingdon-Cokesbury Press circa 1940s. An exceptional, crisp set. Condition Details: Issued without a slipcase, and dust jackets are not present. The black cloth hardcovers themselves feature remarkably firm, tight bindings with sharp, pointed corners. The pages are tightly layered and crisp, presenting an unread quality. The gold text on the backstrips remain bright. The interiors are entirely clean with no writing, marginalia, or highlighting.

A beautifully preserved, authentic mid-century printing. Extra postage on this one.…
