Excerpt from Expository Thoughts on the Gospels: For Family and Private Use The only large separate Commentary on St. Mark, that I have been able to meet with, is a remarkable work consist ing of 1666 folio pages, by George Petter, Vicar of Brede, in the county of Sussex, published in the year 1661. It is a work which from its scarcity, price, and size, is much less known than it deserves. The greater part of the impression is said to have perished in the great fire of London. Some account of this book may not be uninteresting to some readers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
