1682 Bible Catechism Whole Duty of Man Richard Allestree Anglican England RARE

'The Whole Duty of Man' is a Protestant devotional work written by Richard Allestree who prescribes various devotional exercises for a healthy Christian life. According to Bickersteth,

"'The Whole Duty of Man' was a practical book to counteract the Antinomians and contains an impressive introduction on the care of the soul, the devotional part is full and useful, and it has a good statement of relative duties, but it does not exhibit prominently the only principles and strength on which man can perform them." (Lowndes 1229)

This 1682 catechism was written as a commentary on Allestree's 'Duty of Man', designed to clarify and simplify his devotional exercises.
