Bible; That is, the Entire Holy Scripture. Containing all the Canonical Books of the Old and New Testaments. By order of Their High Mightinesses, the Lords States General of the United Netherlands, and in accordance with the resolution of the National Synod held at Dordrecht in the years 1618 and 1619. Faithfully translated from the original languages into our Dutch tongue. With newly added explanations of obscure passages, notes on parallel texts, and new indexes for both Testaments. And, by common order of the Dutch Churches, corrected for printing errors and mistakes found in the first edition. Dordrecht, H. and J. Keur; Amsterdam, M. Doornick, 1686. [Colophon: At Dordrecht, printed by Hendrick and Jacob Keur. Anno 1686.] Folio. (4)134(24)164(4)66 leaves.
