5.0 out of 5 stars One for the ages, September 5, 2001
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Commentary on the Heidelberg Catechism (Hardcover)
Zacharias Ursinus was one of the writers of the Heidelberg Catechism. This book is his own commentary on this classic work of reformational theology. There may be no finer catechism ever produced for its sound theology and warm practical application of Biblical truth. Now you can learn from the master himself and how he understood the very doctrines of the catechism. I would encourage pastors to use this book for adult Sunday school classes, fathers to use it family devotions and home worship times and anyone who seeks to have a better understanding of the vital life changing truths of the Bible.

While the catechism itself is warm and flowing, Ursinus' commentary is stiff, long and sometimes difficult. However, it is worth every once of effort put in. This is a book you will keep and go back to time and time again.

Someone once said that digging holes is harder than raking leafs. But when you rake leafs, all you get is leafs. When you dig holes you might find buried treasure. Ursinus's commentary of the great catechism maybe like digging holes for some, but gold will be found by all who will dig. Dig long and dig deep.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ursinus and the Heidelberg Catechism, January 18, 2012
This review is from: Commentary on the Heidelberg Catechism (Hardcover)
I have worked through this book for more than 15 years, compiled many studies about the different topics treated in this Commentary. What a blessing to me as teacher, and the many students who grasped the intricacies of the Christian doctrine if one wants to figure out how God put it together under the hood, so to speak. Ursinus was a master at understanding the Scriptures and had a great talent to systematically explaining it in the most logical and compelling manner.
I can recommend this Commentary to any serious scholar of the Christian doctrine.
