Title Page of Paraphrasis in Euangelium Matthaei
Title page for a Latin edition of Erasmus' paraphrases of the Book of Matthew, printed in Cologne by Johannes Soter in the 1520s. Soter's mark is the five-pointed star seen on both title pages. The text has underlining and faint marginal notes, indicating that it was well-used by a prior owner. Unfortunately, it also attained library markings when it was acquired by the Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminaries Elkhart Library in 1962 for the princely sum of $15.25.
