Boer investigates Calvins careful thinking in the Institutes as well as in his biblical commentaries pursuing Calvins understanding of political freedom.Boer also explores Calvins views on grace with the eye of a careful interpreter and suggests what we might find in Calvins political thought if we took the Bible grace and freedom as seriously as Calvin did.
