Alcance y contenido

In 1659 John Pearson published in London his celebrated Exposition of the Creed, dedicated to his parishioners of St Clement's, Eastcheap, to whom the substance of the work had been preached several years before. The book reviews the Apostles Creed and has notes in Latin, Greek and Hebrew.

The title page is stamped "Library of Dr. Bray's Associates".
According to various sources, Dr. Thomas Bray (1656-1730) was an English reverend who created a system of parochial libraries in many of the thirteen American colonies. He was educated at All Souls' College of Oxford, where he received his bachelor's degree in 1678; he later received a doctorate in divinity at Oxford. Bray was ordained to the Church of England and later chosen to travel to the Province of Maryland to serve as Commissary (representative of the Church). He devoted himself to establishing parochial libraries in the colonies.

The bookplate on the inside of the cover indicates that the book was given to the clerical lending library of Liverpool, Nova Scotia in 1853 by the Associates of the Late Rev. Dr. Bray. How it came into the collection of St. Peter's Cathedral Church is unknown.

      Nota general

      In 1659 John Pearson published in London his celebrated Exposition of the Creed, dedicated to his parishioners of St Clement's, Eastcheap, to whom the substance of the work had been preached several years before. Soon after the Restoration he was presented by Juxon, Bishop of London, to the rectory of St Christopher-le-Stocks; and in 1660 he was created doctor of divinity at Cambridge, appointed a royal chaplain, prebendary of Ely, archdeacon of Surrey, and Master of Jesus College, Cambridge. In 1661 he was appointed Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity; and on the first day of the ensuing year he was nominated one of the commissioners for the review of the liturgy in the conference held at the Savoy. There he won the esteem of his opponents and high praise from Richard Baxter. On 14 April 1662 he was made Master of Trinity College, Cambridge. In 1667 he was admitted a fellow of the Royal Society. Upon the death of John Wilkins in 1672, Pearson was appointed bishop of Chester. He died at Chester on 16 July 1686, and is buried in Chester Cathedral.
