About 125 years ago, the question of whether a synod established the handed-down classical Reformed Liturgy, and if so, which one, was hotly debated. The answer to this question was important in determining which text should be considered authoritative in the church. It is now clear that the answer has only limited relevance. On the one hand, the text of the Liturgy has certainly been handed down in a broadly correct manner. On the other hand, there is a large number of variations, most of which, however, are of minor importance. The influence of church assemblies on all this is only one factor. This article, therefore, chooses to ask what factors influenced the shape of the Liturgy as it developed in the second half of the sixteenth and the first half of the seventeenth centuries. It names six factors in addition to the (both provincial and national) synods, namely the government, some prominent pastors, local church councils, printers, buyers’ tastes, and local practice.

谁塑造了荷兰礼仪？

大约 125 年前，关于主教会议是否建立了传世的经典改革宗礼仪，如果是，是哪一个的问题引起了激烈的争论。这个问题的答案对于确定哪些文本在教会中应被视为权威很重要。现在很明显，答案的相关性有限。一方面，礼仪的文本确实以大致正确的方式流传下来。另一方面，有大量的变化，然而，其中大部分是次要的。教会集会对这一切的影响只是一个因素。因此，本文选择追问是什​​么因素影响了礼仪在 16 世纪下半叶和 17 世纪上半叶发展的形态。
