The revival of interest in the Protestant Reformation in the
mid-twentieth century was marked by several studies of John Calvin.
J.F. Jansen, however, noted that these had shed new light on almost
every aspect of his thought except that which lies at the heart of
his theology - the doctrine of Christ's work. In Calvin's Doctrine
of the Work of Christ, Jansen corrects this omission, providing a
fresh study of Calvin's work in this area with special reference to
his exegetical writings. Besides critiquing Calvin's development of
the doctrine, he also examines the traditional theological formula
of the three offices of Christ as prophet, priest and king.
Reacting against the return to this formula by contemporary
theologians such as Emil Brunner, he shows that an alternative
conception of Christ's work is possible.
