THIS SET IS KNOWN AS SPURGEON'S "MAGNUM OPUS"       7 Black Clothbound Volumes — Gold Stamped on Spine

The TREASURY OF DAVID is the seven-volume commentary on the Book of  PSALMS, twenty years in the making and the most extensive work ever accomplished on this book of the Bible! The PILGRIM PUBLICATIONS edition is reprinted directly from the original PASSMORE & ALABASTER edition, which was the publisher of Spurgeon's works during his lifetime. Mr. Joseph Passmore himself was a member of Spurgeon's church, the Metropolitan Tabernacle.

As Mrs. C. H. Spurgeon stated in the AUTOBIOGRAPHY, "If he had never written anything else, this set would have been a permanent literary memorial." We urge you to purchase the PILGRIM edition, not only due to the ORIGINAL 7-Volume format (with Introduction by Eric Hayden) but also for the excellent quality clothbound bindings and strong paper used for this set. Other published editions have cheaper cost, but with "bible-thin" paper and weak hardback bindings.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon, the "Prince of Preachers," composed and polished The Treasury of David over the span of nearly half his ministry. This incomparable commentary on the Psalms has always been highly prized by Christians. Spurgeon's own commentary on every verse of the Psalms is extremely insightful, and by itself it would have been rich enough for posterity. But there's much more in The Treasury of David. You'll find a wealth of illuminating extracts and quotes from hundreds of commentators — contemporaries of Spurgeon as well as the great Puritan expositors of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Preachers and teachers will appreciate the homiletical hints on almost every verse, concise sermon outlines, and provocative seed thoughts. Useful bibliographies and an index of authors offer more practical help. Whether you're teaching on the Psalms, studying them for personal devotions, or simply intrigued by the writings of Spurgeon, you'll enjoy this splendid classic.

"Mr. Spurgeon's magnum opus, The TREASURY OF DAVID, which occupied over twenty years of the author's busy life, is too well known to need any lengthy description. The comments and expositions abound in rich, racy, and suggestive remarks, and they have a strong flavour of the homiletic and practical exposition with which Mr. Spurgeon is accustomed to accompany his public reading of Holy Scripture. There is an intensity of belief, a fulness of assent to the great points of Calvinistic orthodoxy which our author would not be true to himself if he attempted to conceal. The brief introductions are very well done, and the abundant apparatus criticus, the list of hundreds of writers on the Psalms, whose meditations have been laid under contribution to enrich the work, render this commentary one of the most voluminous in existence. At all events, the volumes will be an encyclopaedia of reference." — [British Quarterly Review]

"We are convinced that Mr. Spurgeon is doing an inestimable service to the Church in compiling this work. The years will come when as a preacher he will be a tradition, and grandfathers will describe to their son's children the visits they paid to the Metropolitan Tabernacle, the style and character of the sermon, the impression produced by the man and the crowd of hearers, and the story will lose none of its interest in the telling; but such fame slowly, steadily diminishes, and surely fades into the faintest possible outlines. It will be impossible for future generations to estimate the influence which Mr. Spurgeon, as a man of speech and action, exerted in his own day; nor will the innumerable volumes of sermons which have been issued, and still continue to appear, present any fair means by which a critical judgment of his mental vigour can be obtained. Mr. Spurgeon, like every great man, is so much more than his works; but we believe that this "Treasury of David" will do more to win the admiration of future generations, and to sustain its author's reputation than any other of the multiplied works to which he has set his hand. It will live. There is nothing like it in the English language, and it supplies a desideratum which most ministers have felt. We trust that Mr. Spurgeon will be spared in fulness of strength to complete what must be regarded by all thoughtful judges as his magnum opus." — [The English Independent]
