Internal text and illustrations in very good condition with some visible foxing. John Brown of Haddington (1722 - 1787), was a Scottish divine and author. The Self Interpreting Bible was Brown's most significant work, and it remained in print (edited by others), until well into the twentieth century. The objective of providing a commentary for ordinary people was very successful. The idea that the Bible was "self-interpreting" involved copious marginal references, especially comparing one scriptural statement with another. Brown also provided a substantial introduction to the Bible, and added an explication and "reflections" for each chapter. This edition, published circa 1850, contains numerous beautifully coloured detailed illustrations by J M Krunheim. Also included in this sale is a hinged mahogany Bible box with dovetail corners and nice tight fitting lid in excellent condition and measuring 35cm x 39cm x 15cm Bible and box together weigh over 10kg Thank you for looking
