Notes
First published London: R. Boulter, 1677. This SDG reprint follows the nineteenth-century edition produced by the Presbyterian Board of Publication, moving Owen's Latin and Greek quotations to footnotes and translating untranslated blocks, with a new introductory essay by Carl R. Trueman. Distinct from this catalogue's other Owen collected-Works editions, which reprint the same treatise as part of a larger multi-volume set.
