In This Issue Volume 63 Number 2 April 2009 The 500th Anniversary of John Calvin’s Birth 115 GUEST EDITORIAL 117 ORACLES, VISIONS, AND ORAL TRADITION: CALVIN ON THE FOUNDATION OF SCRIPTURE • RANDALL ZACHMAN John Calvin claims that the foundation of Scripture is the oracles and visions revealed to the patriarchs, transmitted through countless generations by an oral tradition that faithfully preserved these oracles. The oral tradition of the patriarchs also contains practices not found in written Scripture that are applicable to the church of Calvin’s day. 130 CALVIN AND PRAYING FOR “ALL PEOPLE WHO DWELL ON EARTH” • ELSIE MCKEE John Calvin’s teaching that Christians should pray “for all people who live on earth” is based on his interpretation of 1 Tim 2:1–2 and related to the Lord’s Prayer. It is also illustrated clearly in his daily practice of leading public worship. 142 CALVIN AS BIBLICAL INTERPRETER AMONG THE ANCIENT PHILOSOPHERS • DAVID C. STEINMETZ God providentially guided the ancient classical authors into the perception of truths and the unmasking of errors. Even the errors they never caught are instructive. For Calvin, the only proper response to this rich intellectual heritage for a devout Christian people called to love God with their minds as well as with their hearts must always remain profound gratitude. 154 FROM ERASMUS TO CALVIN: EXPLORING THE ROOTS OF REFORMED HERMENEUTICS • JAMES BRASHLER Calvin’s debt to the church reformers who preceded him both inside and outside the reform movements of the sixteenth century has not been sufficiently understood or appreciated. The humanistic methods of interpreting and teaching classical texts—including Scripture—as developed by Erasmus of Rotterdam decisively shaped Calvin’s biblical hermeneutic.
