The Gospel According to Isaiah by JOHN CALVIN
This series of seven sermons on the fifty-third chapter of Isaiah represents Calvin's crystal clear and impassioned preaching at its best. The modern reader will easily be absorbed in these masterful sermons and quickly sense that here Calvin is standing on the bedrock of his faith before its profoundest mystery. Few passages from Scripture moved the great Reformer to more fervor or fuller comprehension of Christ's unique work of atonement than the sacrificial drama of this crucial chapter from the prophet Isaiah.
The Reverend Leroy Nixon has translated these ser- mons from the Old French of Calvini Opera, Vol. 35, with the assistance of Pastor Pierre Marcel's modern French translation, published recently by La Revue Reforme of the Societe Calviniste De France. This American edition brings to the Christian community the fresh, dynamic preaching of Protestantism's classic thinker inspired by Christianity's innermost fact.
Of this famous series The Evangelical Quarterly says : "Isaiah fifty-three is one of the chief foundation stones of Calvin's Christology. Calvin is making Jesus Christ the beginning, the middle and the end of all his thinking.
The strength in Calvin's treatment lies in his seeing so clearly and holding so tenaciously together the glory and the humiliation of the Son of God. 'Very God and very man' is no more formula of orthodoxy for him ; it is the essence of his thinking about Jesus Christ."
