Commentary on Isaiah - Volume 3

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 third volume of John Calvin's commentary on Isaiah, in Henry Beveridge's English translation. Here the prophet's tone turns toward comfort: the Lord who created Jacob will redeem him, raising up His servant and humbling idols. Calvin dwells on these chapters of consolation, drawing out their teaching on God's sovereignty, His care for His church, and the folly of idolatry.
