Caspar Olevian on the Substance of the Covenant

This study of Caspar Olevian's doctrine of the covenant and its 'twofold benefit', justification and sanctification, places Olevian's thought in historical context, and, by so doing, puts to rest a number of misconstructions of doctrinal development during this time while shedding new light upon the relationship of Olevian's theology to that of the Heidelberg Catechism, of Calvin and of the wider Reformed world.
