Originally published in 1938, this book gives an engaging account
of the main controversies within Dutch Calvinism between 1600 and
1650. Although the relation of Church and state was debated
throughout the seventeenth century in the Netherlands, two disputes
in the first half were most significant because both began in the
Calvinist Church itself. The first of these disputes arose out of
the Arminian challenge in the Calvinist Church and lasted from 1609
to 1618, when the Synod of Dort expelled the Arminians from the
Church and Maurice the Stadholder drove the leaders out of the
Netherlands. The second dispute began in 1637 when Vedelius taught
at Deventer a theory of the Christian magistracy which was alien to
the Calvinist tradition since 1618. Detailed information is
provided on both of these controversies and the surrounding
historical context.
