Catena Aurea – Commentary on the Four Gospels: (Seconds)

Manufacturer's seconds: minor cosmetic defects not affecting textual or structural quality 2009 (exact reprint of original 1842 English edition) with marking ribbons in each vol. St. Thomas Aquinas' incredible commentary on the books of the Gospel is now available again in an elegant hardcover set. Compiling the works of the Early Church Fathers (over 80 are featured!), the Angelic Doctor presents a comprehensive and erudite exegesis of the Scriptural books that specifically recount the life of Our Lord Jesus Christ. The English translation of the original Latin text contained in this set is especially noteworthy as it was edited by JOHN HENRY NEWMAN (1801-1890), who was canonized in October, 2019. The work of several years, though the 1st volume was published in 1841, is an accurate translation that has stood the test of time and is still cherished by serious students of the Holy Gospels. In fact Newman co-wrote in one of the Catena's introductions that while previous ecclesiastical writers had also compiled such Patristic texts, nevertheless ".they [the earlier compositions] are very inferior to the Catena Aurea." Originally published as an 8-volume set, our reprinted edition has been bound into 4 volumes allowing the production of an elegant hardcover set, but for an economical sale price! Each volume features original-quality text reprinted on fine, natural-colored paper, sewn-binding, handsomely hardbound in an antique-style khaki rattan imitation Kidskin with red embossing on the covers and spines, and a red marking ribbon.
