About

Twenty-one contributors, including some leading Calvin scholars, provide a groundbreaking section-by-section analysis of John Calvin’s Institutes of the Christian Religion. They supply essential background information; further develop Calvin’s discussions of topics including prayer, ethics, faith, assurance, and church and state government; and conclude with a valuable bibliography of Calvin resources.

A long-needed work, this volume serves as the natural companion to Calvin’s magnum opus for classes, students, pastors, and others.

Endorsements

“A very valuable volume, which I commend with enthusiasm. For making Calvin known today as well as once he was, and in every age deserves to be, this really is a major step forward.”

—J. I. Packer, Board of Governors’ Professor, Regent College, Vancouver
