Exposition on the First Book of Kings

Gregory the Great, Pope (c. 540-604)

This book is in Latin.

A six-book allegorical exposition of the First Book of Samuel (Vulgate 1 Kings), handed down under Gregory's name in the Maurist edition (PL 79). Its authorship is doubtful: scholars once defended it as Gregory's lectures redacted by Claudius, but it is now generally ascribed to Peter of Cava (12th century). Latin only; no public-domain English translation is known.
