What it is

A vast work on the church, arguing for frequent lay communion, contrasting the apostolic church with the present one, and identifying antichrist with corruption inside it.

Why it lasted

The theological groundwork of Bohemian reform, and the source of the Hussite demand that laypeople receive communion often and in both kinds.

Where to read it

Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.

These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
