Commentary on Isaiah - Volume 2

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

The second volume of John Calvin's commentary on Isaiah, in Henry Beveridge's English translation. Calvin continues through the prophet's oracles against the nations and his warnings to Judah for trusting in earthly alliances rather than in God. Throughout he keeps the reader's eye on the Lord who alone rules history and who promises a kingdom that cannot be shaken.
