Varebeskrivelse
Emne: Religion og teologi
John Calvin: Sermons on Job. Dette er den meget sjældne faxmile af Calvins fantastiske prædikener over Jobs bog fra 1574. Rent fysisk er det en kæmpe bog, mere end dobbelt så stor som en normal bog. 33,5 cm. høj og 21,5 cm. bred. At det er en facsimile betyder at det er et fotografisk genoptryk af bogen der blev udgivet i 1574. Skriften er altså ikke moderne computerskrift men den flotte stilfulde skrift man da benyttede. Det er stadig almindelige latinske bogstaver, ikke gotisk skrift. Se billederne. Genoptrykket er fra 1993 og helt nyt. God stand og kvalitets indbundet hardback som altid med bøger fra Banner of Truth. Det er i al væsentlighed umuligt at komme udenom John Calvin. Det er virkelig synd at han er så forholdsvis ukendt i Danmark. Hans indflydelse er enorm og dette værk er et fantastisk vidnesbyrd om dette. Udsolgt fra forlaget. Fra røgfrit hjem.

Om værket:
Calvin preached on the Book of Job on week-days in 1554-55. These sermons abound in faithful and lively exposition, and remain one of the finest examples of evangelical preaching. This quality facsimile edition is a reproduction of Arthur Golding's translation of the Job sermons first published in 1574.
The name of John Calvin (1509-1564) is justly renowned in a number of contexts. The Reformation’s greatest systematic theologian, he was also a Christian strategist and transformer of society, as his enormous correspondence and his influence in Geneva bear witness. A prolific scholar and well-versed in the Latin of the academics, he also worked hard at communicating to ordinary men and women in his native French language.
Above all, Calvin was a pastor. Indeed, it has been said of him that he became a theologian in order to be a better pastor. Nowhere is that more clearly seen than in his sermons.
In 1549, the Compagnie des Étrangers, refugees who thought highly of his ministry, employed a professional scribe, Denis Raguenier, to record and translate Calvin’s sermons.
Thanks to the foresight of these sixteenth-century Christians we can still read the 159 sermons Calvin preached on the Book of Job on week-days in 1554-5. They abound in faithful and lively exposition, and remain one of the finest examples of evangelical preaching – faithful to the biblical text and thoughtfully applied to the individual and society.
In 1993 the Banner of Truth Trust reprinted this facsimile edition of Arthur Golding’s 1574 translation of Calvin’s sermons on Job.
