Reformed Confessions of the 16th and 17th Centuries in English Translation: Volume 4, 1600–1693

Description

This is the fourth and final volume of James T. Dennison’s Reformed Confessions project, which compiles numerous Reformed confessions of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries translated into English. For many of these texts, this is their debut in the Anglo-Saxon vernacular. It provides the English-speaking world a richer and more comprehensive view of the emergence and maturation of Reformed theology in these foundational centuries—foundational centuries for Reformed thought and foundational summaries of Reformed doctrine for these centuries.

Each confessional statement is preceded by a brief introduction containing necessary historical and bibliographical background. The confessions are arranged chronologically, with this final volume presenting thirty-six documents covering the years 1600–1693. This volume also contains indexes for the complete set, covering Scripture references, names of persons and places, and subjects.
