English commentary: "This article examines the immediate Dutch reception of the Tractatus theologico-politicus ... It demonstrates that the anti-Spinoza activity of the Cartesians in Utrecht extends far beyond the well-known writings of Lambert van Velthuysen and Regnerus van Mensveld ... This engagement ... forms the background to the mysterious visit Spinoza paid to Utrecht in the summer of 1673."
