About the author

"David Clarkson (1622-1686) was a nonconformist divine of considerable celebrity, and one of the tutors of archbishop Tillotson. He was the son of Robert Clarkson of Bradford in Yorkshire, where he was born February 1622, and educated at Clare-hall, Cambridge; and was some time fellow of that college. He was then tutor to Tillotson, who succeeded him in his fellowship in 1651. He was, according to Baxter, a divine of extraordinary worth for solid judgment, healing moderate principles, acquaintance with the fathers, great ministerial abilities, and a godly upright life. He held for some time the living of Mortlake in Surrey, from which he was ejected for nonconformity in August 1662. After this he shifted about, according to Neal, from one place of obscurity to another, until, in 1682, he was chosen co-pastor with Dr. Owen, whom he succeeded the year following. He died June 14, 1686." from Chalmer’s General Biographical Dictionary

"David Clarkson is one of the most prominent Puritan ministers of the seventeenth century, contemporary of John Owen and John Bunyan. He worked closely with Owen, pastoring Owen’s congregation after his death. He was known for combining sound doctrine with practical application. " - from Logos Bible Software product description
