The maps views and illustrated divisional titles by Jacob van Sandrart and others made their first appearance in the edition of 1686. In this latest version the illustrated sectional titles are signed by Johann Chrisopher Claussner and most of the other views lack the signatures found in the 1686 edition. The earlier forewords by Salomon Glass ed. 1641 and Ernst Solomon Cyprian ed. 1736 are reprinted in the present edition.<br /> <br /> The preliminaries feature eleven full page engravings of Saxony's Electors from Friedrich III to Bernhard der Große followed by an engraved portrait of Martin Luther.

Participants are identified in the legend on the facing page. The conference was assembled by Charles V so that the Princes and Free Territories in Germany might explain their religious convictions in an attempt to restore religious and political unity in the Holy Roman Empire and rally support against the Turkish invasion. The consensus of the assembly is expressed in the Augsburg Confession the primary confession of faith of the Lutheran Church and one of the most important documents of the Reformation era. Written in both German and Latin the Confession was presented at the Diet of Augsburg on 25 June 1530; it is the fourth document contained in the Lutheran Book of Concord.

Quarter dark brown calf marbled boards gilt-stamped spine. Small inked shelf-number on verso title-page. Fine. Later edition of Schrockh's "'eminent' biography of Luther" first published in 1773 Backus & Benedict p. 221. <br /><br /> "Schrockh. . .sympathized with Erasmus' stand in the free-will controversy against Luther's extreme determinism which says Schrockh the modern Protestant church does not feel committed to defend. . . .Schrockh stands by the narrower Lutheran definition of the Reformation. . . .In Planck and Schrockh despite their differences Protestantism and the Enlightenment remained in easy association" Mansfield. p. 46. <br /><br /> "The notion of Luther as the embodiment of the German Volksgeist for example could not but degenerate into that of simple patriotism or 'Luther the German.' On this view when Luther enjoined obedience to the secular authorities on the occasion of the peasants' revolt he laid the groundwork for 'respect for the authorities and for the inner peace of the state'—so says church historian Johann Matthias Schrockh 1733-1808. Indeed according to Schrockh in the intervening centuries all of Europe should have come to understand that the Protestant religion 'is alone suited to the legitimate power and the true interests of the princes' and that 'all of this is without doubt Luther's work'" Perkins pp. 69-70. <br /><br /> The frontispiece of Luther is fine example of German engraver Johann Benjamin Bruhl 1691-1763. <br /><br /> Schrockh "was an Austrian-German historian and literary scholar born in Vienna.

Formerly in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America early clippings of poetical quotations c.1910 found in hinge of first quire. <br/><br/>Endters Kurfürstenbibel of 1748 an influential Luther Bible with exceptional engravings produced by the Gotha court. First published in 1641 under the authorization of Duke Kurfürst Ernst I of Saxe-Gotha. This is the so-called Kurfürstenbibel or Elector Bible because some of the engravings show various Dukes from the 16th and 17th centuries. At the realization of this major project prominent Lutheran theologians such as Johann Gerhard Solomon Glassius and Johann Michael Dilherr among others contributed to the work. This Bible was published with a glossary and added in-text explanations of Luthers original translation for the enlightenment of ordinary people. For nearly two centuries from 1613 to 1792 the successful family of Endter of Nuremberg printed the text of Luthers Bible. Specifically the Kurfürstenbibel was produced from 1641 to 1758 in fourteen editions. Today the large-format folio expenditures are amongst the most commonly encountered family Bibles from the 17th but especially the 18th century. The Gotha courts significant pool of sources as well as favor of the market place in Nuremberg gave rise to such an important project. Large-format and heavyweight in every sense of the word it remains a visually stunning work with its numerous portraits of princes in woodcuts and engravings this Elector Bible treated both theological aspects as well as those of the courtly self-understanding.

In 1648 Adolph Visscher of the Lutheran Church in Amsterdam revised a previous Mennonite translation of Luthers German Bible. This became the standard Bible or State Bible Statenbijbel of Dutch Lutherans. This 1702 printing is a revision of Visschers Bible translation which was in use occasionally revised until 1951. Illustrated throughout with engravings by Romeyn de Hooghe of the Rubens School the engravings represent some of the most significant for the Dutch book illustrator. This suite of illustrations was bound in a number of different translations and editions of the Bible during this period. Progress in the knowledge of biblical languages as well as the development of biblical refutation increased the demand for new versions of the Dutch Bible In fact a Keur translation of the States Bible appeared this same year. This is a historical state of Visschers Dutch States translation also known as the Lindenberg edition which was in fact a universally accepted Protestant Bible this volume maintaining the four original maps some of the finest to appear in 18th century bibles.

Title page in red and black. <br><br> Johann Arndt was a German Lutheran theologian who wrote several influential books of devotional Christianity. Although reflective of the period of Lutheran Orthodoxy he is seen as a forerunner of pietism a movement within Lutheranism that gained strength in the late 17th century. After some time his Lutheran tendencies aroused the anger of the authorities who were of the Reformed Church. Consequently in 1590 he was deposed for refusing to remove the pictures from his church and discontinue the use of exorcism at baptism. His principal work Wahres Christentum i.e. True Christianity which has been translated into most European languages has served as the foundation of many books of devotion both Roman Catholic and Protestant. Arndt here dwells upon the mystical union between the believer and Christ and endeavors by drawing attention to Christ's life in His people to correct the purely forensic side of the reformation theology which paid almost exclusive attention to Christ's death for His people.
