A Modern RewriteBy Paul LintottLength11h 48m
About this audiobook
In Book Two of the Institutes of the Christian Religion, John Calvin turns from the knowledge of God the Creator to humanity's need for a Redeemer. He traces the Fall's damage to human nature, arguing that the will, though real, is enslaved to sin and cannot achieve righteousness on its own. Through the law given to Israel, God exposed sin and pointed forward to Christ, the substance behind every promise and ceremony. Calvin shows the same gospel held out to the patriarchs under shadow and to us in clearer light, then turns to Christ himself: true God and true man, and his threefold office as Prophet, King, and Priest, fulfilled through his death and resurrection. Across seventeen chapters, this rendering carries Calvin's argument on sin, law, and grace into clear modern English for listening, preserving his section numbering and the full weight of his theology. Based on the 1845 Beveridge translation.
