    Description

    Scarce

    Scarce. In Latin. Lacking pages 312-329 and 341-346. Theodore Beza was a French Reformed Protestant theologian and scholar, who played a principal role in the Reformation, succeeding John Calvin as spiritual leader of the Republic of Geneva. As well as a number of important contribution to historical and theological writings, sich as his "De vera excommunicatione et Christiano presbyterio" which was an important defense of the rights of ecclesiastical authorities to excommunicate, he also made an important contribution to Biblical scholarship publishing both a Greek and Latin version of the New Testament. This work, a later edition of his Latin New Testament is true to the original translation, which is noted for the emphasis on predestination which is a prevalent school of thought in Reformation theology. An important Latin translation of the New Testament by a noted Reformation theologian and academic.
