The so-called extra Calvinisticum-the doctrine that the incarnate
Son of God continued to exist beyond the flesh-was not invented by
John Calvin or Reformed theologians. If this is true, as is almost
universally acknowledged today, then why do scholars continue to
fixate almost exclusively on Calvin when they discuss this
doctrine? The answer to the "why" of this scholarly trend, however,
is not as important as correcting the trend. This volume expands
our vision of the historical functions and christological
significance of this doctrine by expounding its uses in Cyril of
Alexandria, Thomas Aquinas, Zacharias Ursinus, and in theologians
from the Reformation to the present. Despite its relative
obscurity, the doctrine that came to be known as the "Calvinist
extra" is a possession of the church catholic and a feature of
Christology that ought to be carefully appropriated in contemporary
reflection on the Incarnation.
