Description
In producing this biography, John W. Keddie simultaneously recovers Smeaton’s theology and introduces us to Smeaton as a person. This edition is revised from the original version of 2007, incorporating new and updated material, including several previously unseen portraits of Smeaton and his family. As Keddie unfolds Smeaton's life and work, it is impossible not to be struck by the value of of the sound doctrine Smeaton prized and the deep piety he practiced.
A man of massive intellect and unwearied diligence, of profound erudition and exact scholarship, he consecrated his talents, his time, and the wealth of his learning to the service of God, and the interpretation of his Holy Word.
Endorsement
"Although his books, particularly those on the atonement and the Holy Spirit, have been reprinted several times, little has been written about Smeaton’s life. In light of the fact that he is often overshadowed by contemporaries like Chalmers, M’Cheyne, the Bonars, and Buchanan (remarkable men in their own right). This biography is a welcome contribution on a man of massive intellect and ardent devotion that deserves to be better known."
