This volume is the first in a completely new translation into modern English of Calvin's commentaries on the New Testament. Those familiar with previous translation have frequently discovered that these sometimes, fail to reveal the close coherence of Calvin's ideas, miss many of his characteristic images, and often translate whole passages poorly or omit them altogether. T.H.L Parker now provides the reader with a translation that does full justice to the Reformer's qualities as an expositor of the Word of God. All who are interested in understanding the Scriptures will be enriched by it.
