Herman Bavinck (1854-1921), a Dutch Reformed theologian, was a contemporary of Abraham Kuyper and B. B. Warfield, both of whom he knew well. He graduated magna cum laude in 1880 from Leiden with a double major in Systematic Theology and Old Testament. His doctoral dissertation was on the concept of the State in Zwingli’s theology. Bavinck taught at the Theological Seminary in Kampen, Holland – where he also pastored – before accepting the position of professor at the Free University of Amsterdam. He is best known for his magnum opus, Reformed Dogmatics (Gereformeerde Dogmatiek, in 4 volumes). Bavinck is one of the most balanced and solidly Reformed theologians Holland ever produced.
Bavinck introduced the notion of organic inspiration of the Scriptures and also developed a solution to the infra/supralapsarian conundrum. Although Bavinck passed away in 1921, he remains a powerful force in Reformed theology. Several important Reformed theologians owe large debts to his work, including Cornelius Van Til and Louis Berkhof.

Alfred Edersheim has done much work to provide a context in which readers can understand the Old and New Testaments. This work is no exception. Temple–Its Ministry and Services provides a historical examination of the first century Temple at Jerusalem. Edersheim provides beautiful and lush descriptions of the Temple. These descriptions help convey a sense of holiness and reverence that the Temple must have commanded. In the Preface, Edersheim notes that not everyone will find all the details of Temple interesting. Fortunately, the bulk of the text is arranged in short sections, each containing a paragraph or two. For topics readers are uninterested in, they can easily skip to the next short section. This feature also makes the work a useful reference tool. Throughout Temple, Edersheim takes his points and relates them to New Testament events and themes. Although the writing is somewhat dated, Temple–Its Ministry and Services provides a fascinating and enriching look at the Temple.

“The Works of Richard Greenham, Volume 3: Containing Seventeen Sermons,” presents a collection of profoundly helpful sermons by Richard Greenham, a significant figure in the Elizabethan Church. This volume encapsulates Greenham’s dedication to preaching “Christ crucified” to his rural congregation, aligning with his pastoral identity of sincerely delivering God’s word for the glory of God and the salvation of others. The sermons tackle various spiritual and moral topics, ranging from the nuances of Christian living to deep theological reflections.
Each sermon is a testament to Greenham’s skill as a spiritual guide, offering insights into critical aspects of Christian faith and practice. Topics include the dangers of quenching the Spirit, the pitfalls of murmuring, the nature of zeal, the value of a good name, and the importance of humility. Greenham also addresses practical issues such as the good education of children and the significance of repentance and true sorrow for sin. In a series of sermons on “The Heavenly Purchase,” he considers complex theological discussions, while other sermons focus on Christian warfare, fleeing ill company, idolatry, swearing, and the mutual duties between ministers and their congregations. He also explores the confession of sins and the effects of Christ’s cross in two parts.
Greenham’s approach is both pastoral and theological, aimed at guiding and nurturing his congregation’s spiritual growth. His sermons are rich in scriptural references and practical applications, emphasizing the transformative power of God’s word in daily life. This volume serves as a valuable resource for understanding Puritan theology and pastoral care, and its timeless teachings continue to resonate with readers seeking spiritual depth and guidance.

Richard Greenham, active during the late 16th century, is remembered primarily for his significant contributions to Puritan pastoral ministry and counseling. Greenham’s counseling and pastoral work significantly influenced Puritan piety. He is often credited with shaping the pastoral care approach within the Puritan movement, emphasizing personal piety, the importance of scripture, and the need for a personal, heartfelt relationship with God. Despite working in a relatively obscure parish, Greenham’s influence extended far beyond his immediate surroundings. His legacy lived on in the Puritan movement, particularly in how pastors approached the care of their congregations. He was a forerunner in creating a model of pastoral ministry that deeply influenced subsequent generations of church leaders, both in England and abroad.
The Works of Richard Greenham Volume 2: Containing Several Treatises’ is a profound collection that encapsulates the spiritual and theological essence of one of the Elizabethan Church’s most pivotal figures, Richard Greenham (c.1540/45–1594). Revered as the architect of Puritan pastoral piety, Greenham’s influence extended far beyond his tenure at the rural parish of Dry Drayton, near Cambridge. His deep understanding of Protestant piety and dedication to pastoral counseling made him a beacon of hope and guidance in a time of religious turmoil.
This volume presents a meticulously curated selection of Greenham’s sermons and treatises, reflective of his immense skill as a spiritual guide and pastoral counselor. His works were renowned for bringing solace and comfort to those “groaned under spiritual afflictions and temptations,” a testament to his empathetic and knowledgeable approach to ministry.
