The shorter catechism composed by the reverend assembly of divines· With the proofs thereof, out of the scriptures : In words at length; which are either some of the formerly quoted places, or others gathered from their own writings; all fitted both for brevity and clearness, to this their form of sound words. For the benefit of Christians in general, and of youth and children in understanding particular; that they may with more ease acquaint themselves with the truth according to the scriptures, and with the scriptures themselves. Corrected and amended.
