    Shorter catechism 5 punctuation

    Books on Westminster Confessions

    I would like to know if anyone knows any books on the Westminister Confessions. I have heard of "The Shorter Catechism Explained from Scripture" By Thomas Vincent and "A Body of Divinity" By Thomas Watson. Are there any more titles that you are aware of on this subject? Thank you.
