Commentary on Corinthians - Volume 2

by John Calvin

John Calvin (1509–1564) was a French theologian who became the leading figure of the Reformation in Geneva. Trained in law and humanist scholarship, he published the first edition of his Institutes of the Christian Religion in 1536, at twenty-six, and spent his life preaching, lecturing, and organizing the Genevan church. His commentaries on nearly the whole Bible and the final 1559 Institutes anchor our Reformed collection.

About this book

John Calvin's commentary on the Second Epistle to the Corinthians, in Henry Beveridge's English translation. Calvin traces Paul's defense of his apostleship, his teaching on comfort in affliction, the ministry of reconciliation, and generous giving for the poor. Throughout, the commentary joins careful handling of the text with warm application to ministers and churches under trial.
