This enlarged and revised edition of a much-acclaimed, full length
study (1971) of Calvin's New Testament commentaries expounds upon
Calvin's principles of interpretation. It considers early
sixteenth-century hermeneutics and gives special emphasis to the
reformers Melanchthon, Bucer, and Bullinger and to "rhetorical"
interpretation. A chapter on Calvin's view of the New Testament
canon leads to an extensive section on the Greek and Latin texts of
the New Testament: the conclusion is that this basic Greek text for
the earlier commentaries was not that of Erasmus but the Colinaean
text of 1534. The final chapter shows Calvin at work on his
commentaries and describes the sources he used for social,
geographical, and linguistic understanding of the New Testament.
Extensive bibliographies of Calvin's commentaries, as well as those
of the relevant Greek and Latin Bibles and the classical patristic,
medieval, and renaissance work in which he was indebted, complete
this comprehensive study. Calvin emerges as the first great modern
commentator and, above all, as the faithful minister of the Word of
God.
