A real slog I have very mixed feelings about vol 1 On the one hand there are some real insights here and ought to be prevalent in the Reformed tradition On the other hand Kuyper establishing the biblical grounds for the doctrine in this volume is trying to be too many things He s a product of his time His engagement with the text of Scripture is trying to be modern yet pre critical at the same time which ultimately yields a jumbled and non sensible interpretation at many points especially in his dealings with Genesis I really hope vols 2 and 3 are better 9781577996538 Really good stuff My view of Kuyper has expanded as has my respect for him Look out for a review in the International Journal of Public Theology 9781577996538 This first volume of Abraham Kuyper s trilogy considers the exegetical foundation of the Reformed doctrine of common grace Kuyper was a Dutch Reformed theologian the father of neo Calvinism and served as prime minister of the Netherlands between 1901 and 1905 His writings are often lucid and easy to read as they reflect his journalistic style Short chapters clear concepts plain and simple style Highly recommended 9781577996538
