[Religion] Catechizing upon the Heidelbergh Catechisme

Of the reformed Christian Religion. Petrus de Witte, Minister of the Word of God at Leiden (...) translated for the English Reformed Congregation in Amsterdam. Gillis Joosten Saeghman, [1664].

Leather, small 8vo, title with vignette, 34,(6),870 pp., binding dam., front board loose, the first 34 pp. with brown stain, else good and complete. The Heidelberg Catechism (1563) is a protestant confessional presenting the reformed Christian doctrine. This early English translation was made for the English protestant community in Amsterdam, which still congregates at the English reformed church at Begijnhof. Curious and scarce.
