This early New Testament bible was printed in Stolpen by Gustav Winter. Michiel van Kempen has pointed out that the Moravian Brothers in Suriname, Herrnhutters, printed their publications (in Sranan Tongo) in Bautzen at E.M. Monse and by Gustav Winter in Stolpen. This particular copy has a written dedication:

“Aan Salomo de Rijp uit liefde van Alexeander”  : “To Salomo de Rijp with love from Alexander”.
