An early Dutch translation of a work on Christian conscience by the English Puritan theologian Jeremiah Dyke (1584–1639), published in Amsterdam during the Dutch Golden Age. The book examines the nature of a good conscience, the means by which it may be attained, its distinguishing characteristics, spiritual benefits, and its necessity for a Christian life. Drawing extensively on biblical passages, Dyke explores the relationship between conscience, sin, repentance, moral responsibility, and salvation. The work reflects the close theological connections between English Puritanism and the Dutch Reformed Church during the seventeenth century. Its translation by Tobias Tegnejus, a minister of the Gospel in The Hague, illustrates the circulation of English Protestant devotional literature in the Dutch Republic.

The dedication is addressed to Johannes de Mareez-Daniels and Jan Selyns-Hendricks, prominent Amsterdam merchants and elders of the Reformed congregation, providing an interesting connection to the city’s religious and mercantile networks.
Printed in two columns, with marginal biblical references and decorative woodcut ornaments on the title page and at the end of the first part.

Modern leather binding with silver print on the spine. Modern endpapers. Quarto edition, in -4, 19 x 17 cm. Complete copy: a-b4 c2 A-O4 P2.
