Sammelband with three works by Lysthenius, all are of the utmost scarcity and we have not been able to trace a single copy of either three in the trade. The first, and most extensive, work (Medulla Meditationum) is an explanation and exposition of the Gospel offering a comprehensive guide designed to help readers and preachers understand and apply the teachings of the Gospels and related Scriptures in a way that is consistent with Lutheran theology and doctrine. The second work (Paraemihagiographia) is a guide to biblical proverb and the third work (Euthanasia) intend to provide theological support during times of mourning using the Biblical Book of Job as a foundation for its reflections on death and Christian hope.
All three work are, in different aspects, educational theological works centered on Protestantism and Lutheranism.
