Leighton, Robert - A Practical Commentary upon the First Epistle of St. Peter - 2 Vols. (c.1835)

A beautiful full-leather 2-volume set of Robert Leighton’s classic commentary on I Peter. With marbled pages and endpapers, fine gilt stamping and adornment, and clear, clean text (previous owner/gift marks, etc., at front end pages), this is a wonderful set for someone looking to upgrade—and/or antiquate—their library with classical printings instead of modern reprints.

In Spurgeon’s Commenting & Commentaries, he says of Leighton’s work on Peter’s First Epistle:

Dr. Henry Mills thus wrote of Leighton's works:—"There is a spirit in them I never met with in any other human writings, nor can I read many lines in them without being moved."

We need scarcely commend this truly heavenly work. It is a favorite with all spiritual men.

Includes extract from Dr. Doddridge’s preface to the original edition.
