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. J. I. Packer "Here is one of Calvin's finest expositions, done into an admirable English. You will find Calvin, after four hundred years, still as instructive a commentator as anyone." Jaroslav Pelikan "I have long been convinced that we must begin to take the Reformers at their word and to read them as they wanted to be read, namely, as expositors of Sacred Scripture." John Murray "This translation will have to be accorded the tribute of outstanding merit." H. F. Stevenson "Here is scholarly, spiritual, practical exposition of Scripture at its very best." The power of John Calvin's study of the second half of the Gospel of John and 1 John is masterfully captured in this superb translation by T. H. L. Parker. Precise and authoritative, yet lucid and very readable, this volume will enrich all who are interested in understanding the full breadth and depth of these two important sections of Scripture. John Calvin (1509–1564) was perhaps the preeminent theologian of the Reformation.
