Biblia Dat ys: De gantze hillige Schrifft, Sassisch, D. Mart. Luth: Uppet nye mit flyte dörchgesehen, unde umme mehrer richticheit willen in Versicul underscheiden: Ock na den Misnischen Exemplaren, so D. Luther 1545 sülvest corrigeret

This Low German edition of the Bible was printed in the late 16th century, specifically emerging from a tradition of translating Martin Luther's High German text into the regional vernacular of Northern Germany. Following the success of Luther’s 1545 revisions, printers in cities like Magdeburg and Lübeck sought to provide accessibility to the Reformation’s central tenets for Low German speakers. This specific volume reflects the linguistic shift of the period, as printers meticulously compared the text against the authoritative 1545 Misnian editions to ensure theological alignment while preserving the regional dialect.

The design of this Bible follows the standards of mid-to-late Renaissance book production, often featuring elaborate woodcut illustrations and structured typography intended to facilitate liturgical and personal study. These volumes were frequently utilized by clergy and the educated merchant class, acting as both a religious anchor and a linguistic preservation effort. While individual designers for the decorative woodcuts were often anonymous, the labor-intensive process of setting such a complex, verse-divided text signifies the high value placed on maintaining doctrinal consistency during the expansion of the Protestant movement.
