Heidelberg/Westminster Shorter Catechism

Rating:
Summary: Mediocre
Review: I was disappointed when I received my copy of this book. While it can be useful to see the Heidelberg and Westminster Shorter catechisms side-by-side, this edition leaves something to be desired. It is a rather poor translation of the Heidelberg Catechism, and neither catechism has the 'scripture proofs' that are in most editions. These 'scripture proofs' are one of the most useful features of these catechisms, and their absense diminishes the value of this text. You'd probably be better off buying these two catechisms individually and putting them next to each other yourself.
