The article examines religious topics in dedicatory letters for the Polish Protestant Bibles of the 16th and 17th century. The New Testament published by Jan Seklucjan (1551–1553), the Brest Bible (1563) and the Gdansk Bible (1632) were dedicated to the reigning kings towards whom the Protestants expressed their expectations about the place of the Church / religion in the state and the role of the ruler. The dedicatory letters by Seklucjan, Mikolaj Radziwill and Krzysztof Radziwill highlighted the concept of the primacy of secular authority over the Church, namely, the sovereignty of the monarch, personifying the majesty and law of the Republic over the Church of God, i.e. people who constitute the community of faith. According to the Polish political status, king, due to his office, played the role of the “servant of the Republic”, and as the guardian of the legal order, was not to be the ruler of conscience, but the guardian of freedom of speech and religion.

The letter of dedication constitutes an important element of the editorial framework of the old printed book. It was a tool meant to serve its author or publisher to achieve specific goals relevant to them. It was also frequently found in the publications of the Lublin Jesuit Printing House. Content analysis of this type of texts provides us knowledge about the circle of authors and addressees, the relationships between them, the environments from which they come, as well as the reasons for their writing activity. The biographical data included in them is a valuable source allowing for gaining a fuller understanding of the profiles of more or less recognized figures coming from different environments of the former Commonwealth of Poland.

List dedykacyjny stanowi istotny element ramy wydawniczej dawnej książki drukowanej. Był narzędziem, przy pomocy którego jej autor bądź wydawca zamierzali osiągnąć określone, istotne dla nich cele. Często występował również w wydawnictwach lubelskiej Drukarni Jezuickiej. Analiza treściowa tego rodzaju tekstów pozwala poznać grono autorów i adresatów oraz łączące ich relacje, środowiska z których się wywodzili, powody aktywności pisarskiej. Zamieszczane w nich dane biograficzne stanowią cenne źródło do pełniejszego poznania sylwetek mniej lub bardziej znanych postaci wywodzących się z różnych środowisk dawnej Rzeczypospolitej.
