1511 Pope Gregory I Bible & Commentary Psalms Petit Septem Psalmos P. Incunable
“There are some so restless that when they are free from labour they labour all the more, because the leisure they have for thought, the worse interior turmoil they have to bear.”
― Gregory the Great
First Petit edition of Pope Gregory I’s Biblical Commentary. Printed in 1511, this rare post-incunable printing of commentary on Psalms is much less-known than his famous commentary on Job. This book is in fine condition and isn’t found for sale anywhere else! An exceedingly scarce printing of ancient Bible commentary!
