The first edition of the first Dutch translation of Calvin's commentaries on the epistles of Paul and on the epistle to the Hebrews. Calvin began work on these commentaries in 1539, beginning with Romans (first issued in 1540). In 1551 all parts were completed and were published together with the epistle to the Hebrews: In omnes D. Pauli epistolas, atque etia in epistola ad Hebraeos commentaris luculentissima. Our first Dutch translation was edited by Johannes Dyrkinus (c. 1530-before 1592) and contains a new preface dedicated by Calvin to Simon Grynaeus and a dedication to Unico Manninga. Although Calvin was read early in the Netherlands and had become of importance, Dutch translations did not appear for some time. - Typ. Batava 935; Index Aurel. 130.098.€ 1000
