= From the library of H. Berkhof (1914-1995), an influential Dutch theologian. The first edition was published in 1677 and an English translation w. the title The oeconomy of the covenants between God and man appeared in 1762. Cf. Glasius III, p.611ff: "Het voornaamste systematische werk van onzen godgeleerde was: de oeconomie foederum (...). Het getuigt van grondige geleerdheid en van onafhankelijk zelfdenken." (p.614).
