Summary: Luther's first major revision of his translation of the Hebrew book of Psalms. Luther and his translation committee worked diligently on the German Bible throughout Luther's life. Every word came under repeated scrutiny; the translators never felt completely satisfied. The Psalter was revised repeatedly, always with the aim of seeking clarity of expression. This is the first revision of the work. This copy is annotated, dated 5 February, 1541, by A. Blarer, a Swabian reformer who was deeply influenced by Luther.
