The 1589 first edition "was the first systematic and comprehensive attempt to refute the arguments and accusations contained in the Rheims New Testament of 1582 . This 'counterblast' to [Gregory] Martin, by printing the Rheims Testament in full . secured for [it] a publicity it would not otherwise have obtained, and was indirectly responsible for the marked influence which Rheims exerted on the Bible of 1611" (D&M).
