2 Corinthians and Timothy, Titus and Philemon

by John Calvin, T. A. Smail, David W. Torrance

Overview

This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable.

This volume is one of twelve classic commentaries by John Calvin, theologian par excellence of the Reformation, whose expositions of Scripture remain as relevant as ever. Edited by David W. Torrance and Thomas F. Torrance, these twelve commentaries on the New Testament bring Calvin's authoritative voice to life in clear contemporary English. The translations all strive to retain the close coherence of Calvin's ideas and characteristic images while remaining faithful to the Latin text — doing full justice to the Reformer's qualities as one of history's finest expositors of the Word of God.

About the Author

John Calvin (1509–1564) was perhaps the preeminent theologian of the Reformation. Known best for his Institutes of the Christian Religion, he also wrote landmark expositions on most of the books in the Bible.  

Editorial Reviews

G. Aiken Taylor
"There is timelessness about Calvin's insights that makes it eminently worthwhile to bring his thoughts before each generation."

Paul K. Jewett
"As Luther was the prince of translations, so Calvin was the prince of commentators. In fact, as an exegete — though by no means infallible — Calvin must be called a genius. He created the first notable Protestant commentaries, and time, the final judge of greatness, has confirmed their worth."
