A practical and polemical commentary or exposition on the whole fifteenth psalm. Wherein the text is learnedly and fruitfully explained, some controversies discussed, sundry cases of conscience are cleared; more especially that of usurie. Many common places succinctly handled, and divers spiritual, holy and seasonable observations raised. For the increase of Christian knowledge, and the better understanding of the holy scripture, the acceptation of the original words are carefully rendered. By Christopher Cartwright, late Minister of Saint Martins in the City of York. The life of the reverend and learned author is prefixed.

Quarto [7.50 tall x 6.00 wide]. Collates [16], 346, [14]p. Worldcat states 20p prelims, but appears complete so could be blank leaves? A fairly scarce work by Christopher Cartwright. A good, sound copy in the main. One prelim with a tissue repair. Occasional patches of minor inner marginal worming else a solid and sound copy. Minor marks, blemishes or reading wear commensurate with age else a sound copy of a rare work. Charles Spurgeon describes the work in his Commenting & Commentaries : A learned and weighty work; not readily met with . Christopher Cartwright (1602 1658) English clergyman, known as a Hebraist and for his use of targums in Biblical exegesis, following the lead of Henry Ainsworth with John Weemes. He was born in the parish of St. Michael-le-Belfry, York, in 1602. He was admitted to Peterhouse, Cambridge, on 13 December 1617. He graduated B.A. 1620, M. A. 1624; was elected to a fellowship at Peterhouse on 30 March 1625, and was afterwards a clergyman in York. Cartwright illustrated the Bible from ancient rabbinical writings, and was respectfully mentioned by contemporaries. He died at York in 1658, and left some books to the library of Peterhouse. When Richard Baxter wrote his first work, Aphorisms of Justification (1649), he submitted it to Cartwright among others. There were many other critics (including Anthony Burges, John Crandon, William Eyre, George Lawson, John Tombes, Thomas Tully, and John Wallis.) But Cartwright s had an impact in the long term. Cartwright made various remarks, to which Baxter replied. Cartwright then replied by some 'exceptions.' Baxter lost the manuscript, which turned up some years after Cartwright's death. In 1676 Baxter published his Treatise of Justifying Righteousness, in two books, the second of which, entitled A Friendly Debate with the learned and worthy Mr. Christopher Cartwright, contained all the preceding papers, together with Baxter's final reply, The Substance of Mr. Cartwright's Objections considered. Bound in full contemporary calf binding. Plainly re-backed in a matching calf leather. Solid and sound. MULTIPLE ADDITIONAL PHOTO IMAGES AVAILABLE. CONTACT US TO REQUEST.…
