At the beginning and end of this three-volume study, Kuyper points out the honor and respect that Muslims bestow upon Allah’s prophet, Mohammed. Noting that this obeisance affects all aspects of daily Muslim life, he contends that Christians have narrowed their honor for Christ—moving from a recognition of his kingship over all spheres of life to a more limited recognition of Christ in his role as savior and redeemer. In other words, Christ was no longer king, but only high priest. Pro Rege was thus a necessary continuation of De Gemeene Gratie (see 1902.13).
In the first volume Kuyper discusses Het Koningschap van Christus in zijn hoogheid [The kingship of Christ in his majesty], which he divides into three parts: “De verdonkering van Christus’ Koningschap” [The darkening of Christ’s kingship]; “De ondermijning van Christus’ Koningschap” [The undermining of Christ’s kingship]; and “Het Koningschap van Christus naar de Schrift” [The kingship of Christ according to the Scriptures]. In the second and third volumes Kuyper discusses Het Koningschap van Christus in zijn werking [The kingship of Christ in its effects]. The last volume also includes a subject index and an index of Bible references.
The chapters of the three volumes were initially published as articles in De Heraut, no. 1514, January 6, 1907–no. 1723, January 8, 1911. The three series of articles from De Heraut were rearranged into seven series. The original number of articles was maintained, but each chapter was now given a relevant heading. The series was published weekly in De Heraut and was only interrupted, as usual, by biblical-theological meditations on major church holidays and by devotions during the summer holidays.
The first volume reprints the articles from De Heraut, no. 1514, January 6, 1907–no. 1572, February 16, 1908; and no. 1580, April 12, 1908. Eight articles (pp. 488–570) were mistakenly not reprinted (cf. 1905.21) and were delivered a few weeks later (see 1911.08). However, they were not included by the publisher in the first portion of the print run (the premium copies) of the first volume. Some owners of a pemium copy ordered a private binding before 1911.08 was published, and when the publisher’s bindings were available (cf. 1912.01) some probably forgot to provide their binder with the supplement. This is why there are bound premium copies from 1911.03 without 1911.08.
The first portion of the print run was intended for readers of De Heraut, who could sign up for one or two sets at half price (cf. 1892.17). The trade edition was then published without the words premie-exemplaar on the title page. Kuyper paid all the printing costs and thus owned the entire print run (KA 315).
