Extremely Rare Facsimile of Martin Luther’s 1522 “December Testament” – A Landmark of Reformation History 

  “   While I cannot claim to have got everything right, nevertheless I venture to say that this German Bible is couched in plainer and more correct language at many points than the Latin. So if the printers do not, as is their wont, spoil it with their carelessness, the German language has here a better Bible than the Latin. I ask my readers to decide.” 
  — Martin Luther 

 Own a piece of history with this stunning   facsimile edition of Martin Luther’s legendary “December Testament”  – the second printing of his groundbreaking German New Testament, originally published in Wittenberg in December 1522.

 This beautifully reproduced facsimile captures the essence of one of the most influential texts of the Protestant Reformation. Luther's translation, drawn directly from the original Hebrew and Greek manuscripts, helped shape the modern German language and brought the Bible into the hands of everyday people for the first time.

 What makes the   December Testament  especially significant—and incredibly rare—is its   unique blend of bold theological vision and artistic mastery  . This edition features the powerful woodcut illustrations of   Lucas Cranach the Elder  , renowned German Renaissance artist and close collaborator of Luther. The vivid scenes from the Book of Revelation, including the famous image of the Whore of Babylon, were controversial in their time and altered in this very edition after provoking backlash from Church authorities.
