Joh. Lightfooti Opera Omnia [The Complete Works of John Lightfoot]. Utrecht: Guilielmum Broedelet, 1699 (on the engraved title page: 1618). Latin and some Hebrew. Second edition. Three parts in two volumes.
The complete works of the English priest, theologian and Hebraist John Lightfoot (1602-1675), edited by the Calvinist Orientalist and philologist Johann Leusden (1624-1699). These two volumes contain varied essays dealing with biblical commentary, biblical history and chronology and more. Accompanied by five engraved plates (three of them folded): an engraved title page, the author's portrait, a map of Palestine, a map of Jerusalem and a plan of the Temple.
The third section (Opera Posthuma) is an addendum to Lightfoot's works, edited by the English priest and historian John Strype (1643-1737). This section has its own title page and separate indices at the end.
