157796188London: Imprinted by Thomas Dawson for John Harison and George Byshop 1577. First edition in English of John Calvin's commentaries on the Pauline Epistles. Octavo bound in full speckled calf with raised bands to the spine all edges red rebacked. Title within architectual woodcut border woodcut initials. In very good condition. First editions are rare. One of the earliest extant Christian documents the Pauline Epistles constitute thirteen books of the New Testament and are largely attributed to Paul the Apostle. As part of the canon of Christian theology and ethics the Epistles offer an unprecedented insight into the beliefs and controversies of early Christianity. The Pauline epistles are usually placed between the Acts of the Apostles and the general epistles in modern editions of the New Testament. Most Greek manuscripts however place the General epistles first and a few minuscules place the Pauline epistles at the end of the New Testament. French theologian and reformer John Calvin produced commentaries on most of the books of the Bible. He devoted four years in compiling his commentaries on the Pauline epistles before turning his attention to the general epistles which he dedicated to Edward of England.

159290388Geneva: Apud Iohannem le Preux 1592. Rare early printing of Calvin's seminal work on systematic theology and one of the most influential works of Protestant theology. Folio bound in full contemporary vellum with a burgundy spine label lettered in gilt elaborate woodcut printer's device to the title page woodcut headpiece and initial to the first page of text. In near fine condition with ownership inscriptions to the front free endpaper. An exceptional example. One of the most influential works of Protestant theology John Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion was first published in Latin in 1536 at the same time as Henry VIII of England's Dissolution of the Monasteries and soon in his native French language in 1541 with the definitive editions appearing in 1559 Latin and in 1560 French. Calvin published the work with the intention of publishing an introductory textbook on the Protestant creed covering a broad range of theological topics from the doctrines of church and sacraments to justification by faith alone and Christian liberty. Throughout the work Calvin vigorously attacked the religious teachings he considered unorthodox particularly Roman Catholicism which he was previously strongly devoted to before his conversion into Protestantism. Institutes in its first form was not merely an exposition of Reformation doctrine; it proved the inspiration to a new form of Christian life for many. It is indebted to Martin Luther in the treatment of faith and sacraments to Martin Bucer in what is said of divine will and predestination and to the later scholastics for teaching involving unsuspected implications of freedom in the relation of church and state.

1585D8191London: Printed by Thomas Dawson Impensis George Bishop 1585. Hardcover. Very Good. 4to 180 x 130mm. 16 298pp. i.e. 598 34 P. 598 misnumbered 298. Signatures: A-2P8; 2Q-2V4. Edited by Henry Beveridge Esq. Period calf rebacked with five raised bands modern morocco label; hinge splitting affecting first gathering title in facsimile slightly browned lacking final blank. Period pen trials on the final verso leaf varying the phrase For if thou possibly beginning proverb. <br/><br/>1585 English translation of Calvins Commentary on the Acts of the Apostles; plentiful in spiritual gifts for the common good. Calvins Commentary was faithfully translated into English by Christopher Fetherstone a student of Divinity; this forms the basis of the Calvin Translation Societys edition. John Calvin the father of modern reformed theology was after Martin Luther a premiere leader in the Protestant movement. One of the goals of Calvins reformed thought was to unite a people with a sense of community and concern for one another he did especially by commenting on the imperative parts of the Gospel which motivated readers to contribute generously to common interest. The present commentary on the Acts of the Apostles is more historical than doctrinal; and hence does not contain so much profound theological discussion as some of Calvins other Commentaries. The leading topic is the progress of the Gospel under the inspired teachers to whom its first propagation was entrusted and the Constitution of the Apostolic Church including privileges enjoyed by its members. To this latter point the controversy is especially directed. From Spurgeons Commenting and Commentaries 1876 quoting Arminius I affirm that he excels beyond comparison in the interpretation of Scripture and that his commentaries ought to be more highly valued than all that is handed down to us by the Library of the Fathers; so that I acknowledge him to have possessed above most others or rather above all other men what may be called an eminent gift of prophecy The Translation appears to be well executed. It is perhaps not so strictly literal as that of the Commentary on the Romans which the Calvin Society has already published; but any difference in this respect is more than compensated by the general superiority of its style. There are occasional obscurities or mistranslations which the editor has endeavored as in the Commentary on the Romans to remove by footnotes; but on the whole it is believed that the present Translation will not suffer by comparison with that of any Theological Translation of the same period.

"Calvin's 'Institution of the Christian Religion' was the first systematic statement of a Reformed Church. It is the most important doctrinal work of the Reformation as a whole and provided a comprehensive theological system rivaling those of the Middle Ages . Calvinism's most important role despite Calvin's authoritarian influences was to support the movement for liberty and independence in many parts of the world" Printing and the Mind of Man 65. First published in Basel in 1536 the "Institutio was much revised taking its final form in 1559" PMM. Calvin understood the importance of vernacular translations in the transmission of ideas made possible by the printing press and prepared a French edition in 1541. This fourth edition follows closely and corrects the third edition printed in 1543. All early editions are uncommon.<br/><br/>Calvin 1509-64 drew upon St. Augustine and Luther as well as upon classical sources including Plato and Seneca; his work addressed theological issues and also notably the relations between ecclesiastical and civil government. The contemporary annotations often callouts of classical authors and shoulder notes with a few pointing hands are most extensive in the first six chapters again in chapter sixteen on the Lord's Prayer where Melanchthon is cited but appear throughout. <br/><br/>The first work in this well preserved contemporary binding is the second Froben folio edition of Erasmus Ecclesiastes Basel: Froben 1539.
