Binding: hardcover

Section: Christianity-General
Of the many sermons which Calvin preached on the Book of Isaiah between July 1556 and August 1559, only eleven were published in his lifetime. Seven of them are newly translated here, all on Isaiah's Fourth Servant Song (Isa. 52:13-53:12). In a series of stunning scenes which have no parallel in prophetic literature, Isaiah delineates the figure of one who is both sacrificial victim and God's agent of salvation. In identifying the Servant with Jesus Christ, Calvin is at one with the witness of the universal church. In this memorable sermon series, the Reformer explores with sensitivity Isaiah's contrasting themes of humiliation and exaltation, death and resurrection. At the same time, he demonstrates how great is the power by which God wrests victory from defeat, and how immeasurable is our debt to redeeming love.
