To readers who are contemplating their first venture into Calvin's thought, or teachers seeking to give their college and/or seminary students a preliminary, working acquaintance with Calvin, I suggest T. H. L. Parker's more modest, still superb, Calvin: An Introduction to His Thought (Louisville: Westminster John Knox, 1995). To enthusiasts of the Reformer, however, I submit that Partee's book deserves to be ranked above Wilhelm Niesel's The Theology of Calvin (Philadelphia: Westminster, 1956; repr. Cambridge: James Clarke, 2002) and alongside Wendel's Calvin in that small collection of magisterial surveys of Calvin's thought with which both present and future Calvin interpreters will be obliged to reckon.
The theology of John Calvin was given classic expression in his Institutes of the Christian Religion . In this definitive work, Calvin expert Charles Partee offers a careful exposition of Calvin's theology as it appears in the Institutes, paying special attention to the relation of Calvin's theology to the history of Christian thought and to the questions of Calvin's own time. Partee also examines the development of later Calvinism and the adaptation of Calvin's thought by his later followers. As Partee shows, Calvin's theology provides a profound exposition of Christian faith and a magnificent resource for theology today. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
