Endter 1720. 433 x 278mm. 17 x 11". 68 p.l. first blank 1-664 1-904 pp. 8 leaves. <br/> ONCE SPECTACULAR AND STILL REMARKABLY IMPRESSIVE CONTEMPORARY GERMAN CALF ELABORATELY GILT WITH A PAINTED BROWN STRAPWORK DESIGN OVER REVERSE BEVELLED WOODEN BOARDS two cartouches on each cover with four- or five-line quotations from the Bible initials "J A B" and "D B" and the date "1726" on upper cover the strapwork forming geometric compartments filled with gilt foliate and floral sprays accented with small putti raised bands spine gilt in compartments with central strapwork lozenge containing gilt flower surrounded by foliage two brass and probably later leather clasps dramatic endpapers of green and gilt decorated paper edges gilt and gauffered in ornate lily pattern some expert restoration at spine ends and at top and bottom of joints. With woodcut initials and tailpieces additional engraved title page 11 engraved portraits of the Dukes of Saxony engraved portrait of Luther by Kilian after Sandrart missing an additional portrait of Luther and 28 engraved plates and plans seven of them double-page. ◆Paint and gilt somewhat rubbed other signs of use to the binding but the once-magnificent binding quite sound and still very very striking. Occasional minor foxing stains and thumbing N5 with five-inch curving tear into text no loss two plates with old six- to seven-inch tears into image one mended on verso with discolored cellotape a handful of other minor tears but still a pleasing copy internally generally quite clean and fresh.<br/> <br/> At 5 1/4" thick and with a lavish overall decorative design this is a memorable specimen of a German post-fanfare binding very likely produced as a wedding gift for the couple whose initials appear on the cover. Support for this supposition resides in the binding's quotations from German Scripture traditionally used at Lutheran weddings: Genesis 2:18 "And the Lord God said It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helpmeet for him" and Colossians 3:14 "But above all these things clothe yourselves in love which is the bond of perfection". A perfect family Bible for a young couple of high degree this handsomely illustrated edition is known as the "Kurfürstenbibel" because of its portraits of the Electoral Princes called "Kurfürsten" in German. Such a Bible was originally prepared for Ernst I Duke of Saxe-Gotha and Altenburg as a celebration of Martin Luther's Bible translation. The Endters one of the prominent German printing families issued several printings of it beginning in 1641 and continuing to the end of the 18th century. In addition to portraits of Luther and the Protestant princes of Germany it contains the maps views and illustrated half-titles by Jacob van Sandrart and others first used in the edition of 1686. Although it bears some small signs of use the binding remains an object of imposing beauty. J. A. Endter unknown

The first European language Bible printed in America and the second Bible printed in America after John Eliot's Indian Bibles of the 1660s. The German text is based on Martin Luther's translation by way of the 34th Halle edition with some books of the Apocrypha III and IV Esra and III Maccabees supplied from the pietistic Berlenburg Bible. It was printed with type sent from Frankfurt by Heinrich Ehrenfried Luther who received twelve of the completed Bibles in return. Though Saur was criticized by the Lutherans in Philadelphia for the ideological slant of his Bible the combination of translations and Protestant traditions did much to keep Saur above much of the local German sectarian conflict. Believed to have been printed in an edition of 1200 copies slightly over one-tenth are known to have survived. Christoph Saur 1693-1758 was a native of Wittgenstein Germany who settled in Germantown Pennsylvania and practiced medicine before turning to printing. A very nice copy of a landmark in American religious and printing history. unknown

Text in two column black letter with cross references and short summaries at the beginning of each chapter. The text is based on Martin Luther's version by way of the 34th edition of the Halle Bible with books three and four Esra and three Maccabees supplied from the Berlenburg Bible. The present copy has "parallelen" spelled correctly a second issue of the title had this word misspelled as "parllelen" as it was made in haste. Printed New Testament title page 1743.

He was a man of conviction in matters of morality and religion and he sought to produce a Bible that his fellow Germans could read in their native tongue. He appealed to Germany where Dr. Heinrich Luther provided him with the type in exchange for a presentation copy. It took him three years to complete the printing of the Bible. Saur made every effort to promote the reading of the Scriptures. His asking price was eighteen shillings but his quoted as saying that "to the poor and needy we have no price." An estimated 120 copies have survived making copies of the 1743 edition quite scarce.</p><p><strong>References:</strong> D&M 4240; Evans 5127; Wright 31.</p> Christopher Saur hardcover

Nuremberg J. A. Endter 1720. A beautiful example of the so-called "Kurfürsten Bible" also called "Weimar Bible" or "Ernestinian Bible" Present here is a copy of the 12th edition this Bible appeared until 1768. Its first printing commissioned by Duke Ernest the Pious of Saxe-Weimar was in 1641. Editors were Johann Gerhard 1582-1637 theologian at Jena and his successor Salomon Glassius 1593-1656 a.o. It was the most popular German Bible of its time using Luther's text of 1545 and including the Apocrypha. There is a glossary and each chapter is accompanied by texts from S. Glassius' "Biblisches Handbüchlein" meant as a help for the lay reader. A detailed history of the conception and printing of this epochal Bible is given in the preliminaries. This edition contains a wealth of pictorial matter the title showing Moses and Christ to the left and right of the pillars of a temple which bears the coat of arms of the Duke. It is followed by the portraits of the Saxon electors with their coats of arms and Martin Luther: some engravings include small views More than 30 full-page plates show biblical characters like Moses Isaiah Ezekiel Daniel and the 4 evangelists Noah's ark 2 plans of Jerusalem 4 maps 1 folding plate showing camps of the Israelites. 18 plates serve as titles to various books of the Bible with scenes from the following contents in 12 small compartments. The last illustration is the double-page picture of the presentation of the Augsburg Confession to Charles V 1530 the full text of which is included. - Slight browning or foxing in parts some wormholes and tears repaired.

Contemp. calf spines in 6 compartments with 2 labels some skilful repairs to corners and spine ends somewhat rubbed. Zurich Conrad Orell and Comp. 1755-56. First edition of the so-called "Ulrich-Bibel" an important new version of the Zurich bible. The editor was pastor at Grossmüster and was close to Pietism. This edition is one of the most carefully edited Bibles and comes with regard to the beauty of the printing close to that of Froschauer's publication. The text is based on the 1667 and 1724 editions; it was revised and adapted to the more wide-spread use of modern high German. Johann Caspar Ulrich 1705-1768 was in charge under the supervision of the Church Council. In the "Kurze Anzeige" at the beginning Johann Konrad Nüscheler gives a bibliography of Zurich bibles. Together with Johann Rudolf Ziegler he was also involed in the text revision. Illustrations were not originally planned but since many buyers regretted the lack of images as they were used in the Froschauer bibles so the publisher offered illustrations separately for sale which are often different to those in this present copy. The two pompous frontispieces by J. H. Holzhalb and the large head-piece to the dedication are original parts of the edition. In addition this copy is embellished with the engravings of Christian Weigel after Jan and Caspar Luyken originally published at Nuremberg as a plate work mounted and inserted. Each plate bears a four-line Latin and German epigram by the poet Samuel Faber 1657-1716 beneath the image. - Lacking Weigel's engr. title and plate 37 in the Old Testament and plates 101-108 in the New Testament. - Old name on flyleaf in vol.
